    The article speculates on why there is a difference. Part of the reason might be that it’s £60 for a remaster of a 23 year old game? I’m not really sure who this game is aimed at; it was always unlikely to be a huge hit on PC. But It’ll probably do better long term when the price comes down and with steam sales etc.

      Just a correction: it’s an actual remake like Resident Evil 4, not a remaster. Entirely new engine (Unreal 5), character models, environments, music/sound, and new content around the plot. Considering the original came out in 2001, the updates were sorely needed imo.
