Resident Evil 3 is a remake of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, a survival horror game released for PlayStation in 1999. The original game uses tank controls and fixed camera angles, while the remake features third-person shooter gameplay similar to the 2019 Resident Evil 2 remake. It also includes an online multiplayer mode, Resident Evil: Resistance, which puts a team of four players against a "mastermind" who can create traps, enemies, and other hazards.
The story is set in September 1998, before and after the events of Resident Evil 2. Players control former S.T.A.R.S officer Jill Valentine as she attempts to escape Raccoon City during a zombie apocalypse caused by an outbreak of the T-Virus. Jill is hunted by an intelligent bioweapon known as Nemesis, who attempts to kill her and all remaining S.T.A.R.S members.
Capcom producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi mentioned the possibility of a Resident Evil 3 remake after Resident Evil 2 remake was released in January 2019. Development was assisted by M-Two, founded by former PlatinumGames CEO Tatsuya Minami, and was created using the RE Engine, which was also used in Resident Evil 7 and the Resident Evil 2 remake. The multiplayer mode, Resident Evil: Resistance, was developed externally by NeoBards Entertainment, and was previously announced as a separate game, Project Resistance.
Producers Masachika Kawata and Peter Fabiano said the team tried to honour the more action-oriented approach of the original game. Accordingly, they altered character designs, with Jill wearing more practical apparel and Carlos Oliveira redesigned as "rougher around the edges". Nemesis, one of the central aspects of the game, was also redesigned and given new ways to track down the player compared to the Tyrant from the Resident Evil 2 remake.
