This is a remake of the first game released in 1996 with the highest level of graphic expression at that time (2002). Not only the graphics, but also everything except the outline of the story has been newly created, resulting in a work with a story that is even more terrifying and profound than the original. The HD remastering of the game was done with a great deal of care, including the restoration of original materials and the creation of new textures, to recreate the atmosphere and feel of the original game, which even has a sense of humidity and smell. A special video "Wesker's Report I" and a feature-length reading material "Wesker's Report II" are also included.

This game explores the "Ecliptic Express Incident," which is the origin of the "Western House Incident (the first Resident Evil game)" that started the whole thing. It is also an ambitious work that challenges various new systems, such as "partner zapping," in which two main characters are controlled. This challenge will be carried on in subsequent titles in the series. In addition to the same meticulous HD adaptation as "Resident Evil HD Remaster," a new play mode, "Wesker Mode, "* has been added to this title. Playing as Wesker, who possesses superhuman abilities, offers an exhilarating experience that differs from that of the main game.
The Wesker Mode included in this title is the same as the Wesker Mode added to other console versions.
