Priority fixes

  1. [contrast_color] Increase the rim lighting or brightness separation on the zombie silhouettes in the midground to ensure they read as distinct horror elements at tiny size.
  2. [uniqueness_polish] Introduce a more singular iconic visual hook such as a closer crop on one character's face with a zombie reflection or a more dynamic environmental detail that communicates the specific RE2 setting without relying solely on IP recognition.
  3. [composition] Consider a slight crop adjustment to push the two characters slightly closer together and more centered so they read as one cohesive subject shape at the smallest thumbnail size.
  4. [brand_consistency] Ensure the Capcom or Resident Evil franchise mark is visible at full header size to reinforce publisher trust signals for players unfamiliar with the characters.

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [hook_strength] Replace 'Witness the return of Resident Evil 2' with a forward-looking statement about what makes the remake essential, e.g., 'Experience the remake that redefined survival horror for a new generation' or lead with the dual-perspective mechanic.
  2. [uniqueness] Add a sentence after 'modernized controls' that explicitly compares this remake to the original or competitors, e.g., 'Built on Capcom's RE Engine, this is the first time Raccoon City has been rendered in photorealistic detail with dynamic gore physics.'
  3. [audience_targeting] Insert a brief accessibility or difficulty note such as 'Designed for both series veterans and newcomers to survival horror' or mention difficulty options to clarify who the intended audience is.
  4. [feature_communication] Expand the 'collect and use items' language into one sentence about resource scarcity or inventory puzzles, e.g., 'Manage limited resources and inventory as you scavenge the RPD for weapons and healing items to survive.'
