and publisher Capcom revealed the release comes not long after the original Resident Evil 2 arrived on the platform, much like how the pair of games first launched.

"Capcom's Resident Evil series has defined and revolutionized the survival horror genre, with the original Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2, and Resident Evil 3 being standout titles that have captivated gamers worldwide," the post said. "Now, it’s time to complete the trilogy.

"Just like with Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2, we made sure GOG's version of the third entry in the series is the best it can be. You can expect a variety of quality of life improvements, compatibility with modern systems, full modern controllers support, and even more."

Here's what Resident Evil 3 on GOG offers:

• Full compatibility with Windows 10 and Windows 11.
• 6 localizations of the game included (English, *******, French, Italian, Spanish, *********).
• Mercenaries Mode included.
• Improved DirectX game renderer.
• New rendering options (Windowed Mode, Vertical Synchronization Control, Gamma Correction, Integer Scaling and more).
• Improved graphics engine initialization and restart.
• Improved video subtitles.
• Improved options dialog.

GOG announced plans to release all three original Resident Evil games back in June, with the release of Resident Evil 3 completing the venture. Picking up the original Resident Evil 4 and onwards on PC isn't nearly as complicated as the first three games, which were long absent on the platform, so it's perhaps unlikely any grandiose announcements will be made about more releases.
