Hello,

the only uncut Resident Evil 3 versions released for PC are the South Korean and East European versions. All other PC versions were censored or altered. Will the upcoming GOG version will be the uncut version, for example the South Korean Biohazard 3: Last Escape (CAPCOM Premier Collection)?

Source information on uncut/cut editions of Resident Evil 3 is the german Online Games Datenbank (OGDB . EU)

thanks

I have the US release of RE3 for PC. I got it back in 99 and is not uncut.
Head decap is there
Hunter taking out the head of the zombies too.
Do you have a link to that list??

I would actually love if GOG offers the censored german version as bonus content. Even this one has the right to be preserved. But I honestly never saw or owned a german PC version of RE3. So I don't even know if it has the exact same censoreship than the german PSX PAL version.

Hi there, here's the censorship info taken from OGDB and translated to english:

US PC cut info:
• Heads of zombies crawling on the ground remain attached after being stepped on (when zombies bite you in the leg the zombie head can be stepped on and be decapitated)

but, US PC version allows zombie headshots

UK PC cut info:
Englisch
• In the cutscene in the hospital in which a hunter attacks a zombie, the decapitation is missing
• Heads of zombies crawling on the ground remain attached after being stepped on. (when zombies bite you in the leg the zombie head can be stepped on and be decapitated)

unclear, if the UK PC version allows zombie headshots

It's the same in both versions of the game.

If Resident Evil 3 Nemesis appears censored on GOG like you’ve listed, we could try to ask the GOG Team to try to update it with the hotfix that de-censors the parts we can point out to them.

Or GOG could use (if possible) the South Korean version as the basic framework because that's the only official uncensored version.

That is possible! We could try that as well!

The English Australian Version is uncensored as well!

Whatever happens all these versions should be uncut. it's 2024... There are far worse things in Gears of War or Mortal Kombat.

Even if they have to work hard to reverse the censorship. In this case preservation is about preserving the actual intended presentation.

I don't even remember the RE3 PC port well enough. I thought I remembered 2 and got that horribly wrong so I'm not gonna say what I think I remember and it's not much anyway.

They might have improved the graphics engine, and included all 6 localized language versions (including English and Japanese) for the base version of the game. So they might’ve completely uncensored it for the GOG version already, but I’m not sure.
