If dissecting the one-shot demo preceding RE2 Remake's release taught us anything, it's that Capcom hasn't been averse to indulging in its playful side in recreating Raccoon City, so it should come as no surprise that the full game is packed full with nods to various individuals that helped bring the project to fruition.

The 'We Do It!' Easter Egg present in the station's reception area is, by now, well known, but the tributes don't stop there. Inscribed on the base of the main hall's statue is a series of names that belong, not to fallen RCPD officers, but real people. Specifically, the remake's localisation team. On top of that, the likeness' of several development team members were used as the basis for some of the generic zombie models encountered in-game.

Keep that in mind the next time you pop a zombie's head like a balloon with a well-placed shotgun shell.
