Resident Evil 3 Remake: EVERY Major Change & Missing Feature

Grave Digger Cut?!

Original:

Now, this might just be one of the most forgettable bosses in Resident Evil history, but the Grave Digger serves for a much-needed break from Nemesis in the Playstation 1 original.

Sure, it's just a giant worm at the end of the day, but it proved the T-Virus had reached uncontainable levels and was corrupting all life it touched.

Though they might be all too common at times, giant infected animals and bugs are a staple of the series.

Showing up twice, this second boss of RE3 wasn’t the best and might have even been ripped from Code Veronica code as the two titles were being made at the time. It surely was more memorable than the Gulp Worm, even if it was eventually defeated by a lamppost.

Remake:

For all intents and purposes, the Grave Digger does not exist anymore, and that frankly is a sad thing to come to grips with.

Here is how it should’ve been reintroduced to players of the Remake:

Have the Grave Digger accidentally save Jill from Nemesis during the first encounter, the poor worm could just be after a quick meal. Then have Nemesis crash the second encounter with the Tyrant squashing or absorbing the giant T-Virus infected bug.

This literally writes itself and is a damn shame that now the Grave Digger is forever lost to time.
