Capcom’s Resident Evil 3 Remake turned the iconic 1999 classic into a fast-paced survival horror thrill ride. While Jill Valentine is busy dodging Nemesis and escaping Raccoon City, eagle-eyed fans might spot a few clever Easter eggs cleverly tucked into the chaos.
Let’s take a look at the top hidden secrets in RE3 Remake — perfect for both new players and longtime fans.
🔥 1. Nemsis Drops a paraside , just like Resident evil 4
In a rare moment early in the game, when Nemesis mutates and infects zombies with parasites, players quickly noticed a striking similarity to the Plaga parasites from Resident Evil 4. This Easter egg may be Capcom’s way of teasing the RE4 storyline or simply linking the biological horrors of the RE universe together.
🪪 2.Brad's Fate in Resident evil 2 remake
Remember Brad Vickers, the cowardly S.T.A.R.S. pilot? In Resident Evil 3 Remake, you witness him get bitten early on — but if you’ve played RE2 Remake, you’ll know this lines up perfectly with his zombified cameo in The 4th Survivor mode. Capcom smartly ties the two remakes together, giving us consistent lore across both games.
🎮 3. Toy Uncle : A toy story refrence

Look closely at the Toy Uncle store signage and design — it’s suspiciously similar to a certain Toy Story logo. Capcom seems to be cheekily referencing Pixar’s iconic film. Plus, the giant Toy Uncle head that crashes through the street is oddly reminiscent of Mr. Potato Head.
Coincidence? Probably not.
🧟 Jill outfit's Throwback
By using the Classic Costume DLC, players can dress Jill in her iconic 1999 tube top and miniskirt look — a nostalgic nod to her original RE3 design. It’s a fun throwback for fans who’ve stuck with the series since the PS1 days.
Also, the costume menu even labels the outfit “Classic (1999),” acknowledging the original game directly.
📖 5. Magazines & Posters movie
Take a minute to browse the Raccoon City shops — you’ll find fake movie posters and magazines that reference past Capcom titles and even spoof real-world films. There’s one that parodies Terminator (fitting, since Nemesis plays a similar unstoppable role), and others nod to forgotten Capcom IPs.
🎯 Conclusion
Resident Evil 3 Remake might be faster and more linear than its predecessor, but Capcom packed it with enough hidden details and nostalgic references to keep lore hunters and fans satisfied. From subtle environmental clues to franchise-spanning connections, RE3 proves that horror and humor can go hand in hand — if you know where to look.
