An issue of PlayStation Magazine UK has an interview with developers on the upcoming remake of Resident Evil 3. A user on Reddit has uploaded images from the magazine online that reveals new details on the game.
The Mercenaries mode from the original game will not be returning, as the remake includes the new multiplayer mode, Resident Evil Resistance. Also confirmed is the lack of multiple endings that were seen in the original.
Resident Evil 3 producer Peter Fabiano did reveal the two remakes would be more interconnected than the original two games were.
"You would expect since the events do indeed chronologically overlap that there would be things you’d find familiar," said Fabiano. "I’ll just leave it at that for now."
Fabiano added that Raccoon City will be larger and offer more exploration than the original.
"You’ll find that you’ll be able to walk through areas and explore a bit more than in the original," he said. "Keep in mind that you never know what might lurk around the corner."
It was recently revealed on the Microsoft Store page for the game that it will be 43.01 GB on the Xbox One. It also includes the multiplayer game set in the same universe, Resident Evil: Resistance. The main campaign for the remake of Resident Evil 3 is 21.93 GB, while Resident Evil: Resistance is 20.47 GB. The file sizes on the PlayStation 4 and Windows PC will likely be fairly similar.
Resident Evil 3 will launch on April 3, 2020 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC via Steam.

To be fair, the endings on RE3 were basically all the same. I believe the only difference was who piloted the helicopter to escape the city. Still, it's unfortunate that they couldn't add such a small thing that the original had. Also, I was never a Mercenaries fan but not adding it isn't exactly a plus.
Well I kinda liked the mercenary mode in the original RE 3 so it not having it kinda sucks.
i dont really like the 4 vs 1 games they tend to be a bit boring so would have liked a mercenaries or a raid mode that would give more replay value, or a game mode like in left for dead where 1 team is humans and another team controls different B.o.ws.
That's why they included that terrible online thing on the game as well... but I'll never play it even if I could play online.
I'm totally cool with that.
Don't play MP and didn't play much of mercenaries. One ending only means I'll need to make less runs for plat (probably) so I'm ok with this.
Why would Capcom bother implementing different endings? People will buy it anyway and this new multiplayer mode is how they'll shove in microtransactions in there.
