Head back to Raccoon City early

Update: The Resident Evil 3 gameplay stream is over, and you can catch it all via the Twitch video embed above. Skip to about 5:20 into the video to see the introduction complete with previously seen trailer, or scrub ahead to 9:45 for the gameplay itself to begin.

This stream only shows off a small, spoiler-free section of the game, though it does explain some of the new mechanics like the slow motion dodge you get for timing a dodge just right. It also ends with a community-requested death scene, because we're all a bunch of morbid so-and-sos.

If you'd like to see another take on the same part of the game, you can check out the Resident Evil 3 gameplay that Capcom Japan showed off in its own livestream earlier today.

Original story: You'll want to know how to watch the Resident Evil 3 gameplay stream to catch the latest details about the remake, and we've got all the info you need right here.

Capcom made a surprise announcement yesterday that it would share "an exclusive gameplay stream" for Resident Evil 3 today at 11am PST / 2pm EST / 7pm GMT. The presentation will be streamed live to Capcom's Twitch and YouTube channels. If you're here, you're all ready to watch via the Twitch channel embed above. Capcom confirmed last week that a Resident Evil 3 demo "is on the way", so here's hoping that the stream ends with an "and you can play it now" announcement.

Capcom has been moving fast with Resident Evil 3 details ever since it first announced the remake back at The Game Awards in December 2019. After the horror brilliance that was Resident Evil 2 last year, anything that fills the time between now and the April 3 release date sounds good.

We know Resident Evil 3 will both include a modernized take on the original Resident Evil 3 campaign and Project Resistance, a 4v1 multiplayer game that sets a team of survivors against a nefarious Mastermind. You should expect the remake's campaign to take a few more creative liberties with the original story than Resident Evil 2 did, but it's still meant to tell a tale that's true to the original Resident Evil storyline.

We'll be watching the Resident Evil 3 gameplay stream as well, and we'll all have the biggest news ready for you to recap ASAP once the stream concludes.

Check out our Resident Evil 3 hands-on preview to find out how the new Nemesis makes Mr. X look like a friendly neighbor.
