Resident Evil 3: 10 Major CHANGES From The Original
2. A New Look For Jill
Returning from the first Resident Evil game, Jill Valentine had changed her look by the time Resident Evil 3 rolled around. Gone was the military-inspired police uniform, as the master of unlocking decided she needed a safer outfit to face a city full of zombies in.
That outfit was a miniskirt and strapless top, with a cardigan casually tied around her waist. This was an obvious late 90s attempt to sex up the franchise in an era where pointy computer-boobs sadly equated to higher sales.
Much like Claire's outfit in the RE2 remake, the default Jill (a remake of her original outfit is available as a preorder bonus) has been designed to riff off her costume from the original, while removing the overt sexualization.
This more sensible outfit adds straps to the top and pairs it with an undershirt. The skirt has been replaced with sensible trousers, although a load of pouches retain that 90s hero feel.
This more restrained look is a nice step forwards for all of us as it helps female characters like Jill and Claire to be representative of female players, rather than just something for male players to ogle.
