In addition to the intense game process, you may also want to pay attention to the realistic prototypes of various weapons in the game.
This article will briefly analyze the realistic prototypes of various weapons that appeared in Resident Evil 8. Since the 7th generation of the Resident Evil series, which adopted a new engine, the weapons in the game have maintained the practice of using real-life weapons with fictional names attached. It is different from the gun model selection rules of many games on the market.
The Biochemical series has always had a unique taste in weapon selection since the 7th generation, and its realistic prototypes also bury a lot of interesting knowledge and easter eggs.
This article only introduces firearms, so grenade launchers and grenades are not included.
Pistol
LEMI（CZ 2075 Rami）
The CZ 2075 is a semi-automatic pistol designed and produced in the Czech Republic. It fires pistol bullets of 9×19mm and .40 calibers. On the whole, it is similar to a comprehensively reduced version of the famous CZ75 gun. It is worth noting that CZ 2075 RAMI has two main production models, alloy frame model and polymer frame model. It can be clearly seen in the game that the alloy model is used
In the game, this gun is automatically obtained and is the personal weapon of villager Old Man Li. In order to increase the comfort of use, Old Man Li added strips of cloth wrapped around the grip. When loading this gun. Compared with the 7th generation, the loading of the 8th generation is more tactical. Thanks to Ethan’s combat training under the guidance of Chris, the loading animation of this game looks professional and practical.
Note that both magazines are empty, which is an oversight in modeling. At the same time, this gun is also one of the decorative patterns on the store interface.
Samurai Blade (Beretta 92FS customized)
Samurai Blade is the nickname of the standard gun purchased by STARS, the Raccoon City SWAT team in the game world. The Beretta pistol used by STARS was specially customized by the KENDO weapons store near the police station and named it Samurai Blade.
Each samurai blade is customized according to the personal usage habits of STARS members. The one that appears in the game is the one used by Wesker. It appears in Resident Evil 7 as a sure-fire weapon at the end of the level, and is also the pistol of the seventh generation Chris. In the seventh generation it was called Albert Type 01.
Its prototype is the classic 9mm pistol, the Italian Beretta 92F, which is the most frequently photographed pistol in the biochemical series. From the first generation of "Resident Evil" in 1998 to "Resident Evil 8" in 2021, this gun has almost run through the entire Biohazard series. As a world-famous gun, this gun is widely equipped in military and police forces around the world. It has decent performance and is easy to operate.
USM-AI(B&T USWA1)
USWA1 is a very unique weapon. In 2016, the Swiss company Brega & Tomei launched this unique defensive weapon that has the portability of a pistol and the power of a submachine gun. Unlike traditional pistols, the USWA1 has the function of independently unfolding into a short carbine or submachine gun.
The USW in the B&TUSW pistol refers to the abbreviation of Universal Pistol, and its basic structure is based on the CZ-75 (which means it can fire fully automatically instead of the limited single shot in the game). This gun comes with an Aimpoint NANO red dot sight and a short rail that can be modified. The overall size is larger than an ordinary pistol, but it can be stored in most holsters. This gun uses standard 9x19 ammunition.
Note the unique shape of the gun tail in the picture above, which houses a portable butt. The game is in an expanded state.
This gun is used as Chris' pistol in the game and is limited to one shot. For Chris, who is on the front line of handling BOW, such a short and powerful submachine pistol is a valuable choice. Too bad I can't use that sight.
M1911（M45 / MEU(SOC)）
Contrary to conventional wisdom, the M1911 model featured in the game is not the most classic M1911A1 model, but a model specially customized by the U.S. Marine Corps for its Marine Expeditionary Team.
This weapon does not require excessive explanation. It is basically one of the symbols of modern pistols. In some games, it can be picked up in the middle stage. The game has a very fantasy fully automatic firing mode and a super long magazine modification. In view of the fact that there are so many models of M1911, the appearance of the M45, a standard weapon of the US military, in a remote town can only be attributed to the carelessness of the art materials.
S.T.A.K.E（Wildey Hunter）
The prototype is a civilian firearm Wildey Hunter, and the 8-inch barrel model is selected in the game. This gun fires extremely powerful McGlynn pistol rounds in real life. Includes specialized 475 Wildey McGlynn ammunition. It is an out-and-out powerful hunting pistol.
Due to its powerful appearance, this gun often appears in some movies and animations.
