Those of you who have played surely remember Luis Sera, one of the most important supporting characters. Well, the design of Luis is the work of Yamanaka, who has confessed that he was inspired by Aragorn from The Lord of the Rings to shape his physical appearance.
I think I drew him because I wanted him to look like Aragorn from LOTR, who was popular at the time, as handsome as Leon. I handed over some rough art to the modeler, and he did a great job, Yamanaka noted.

Without a doubt, the story is amazing and totally unexpected, although now that we know it, it does give an air to the heir to Isildur and the throne of Gondor. Don’t you think? Luis was a pivotal character in the story of Resident Evil 4.
One of the great points of the character is that he was a policeman in Madrid, but he returned to his hometown to help Saddler in the development of Las Plagas. Over time, Luis realized the danger of this and fled. Ada Wong saved his life and came to collaborate with Leon until his death.
Now it only remains to be seen how Luis will perform in the game review. The character has already been shown in the occasional glimpse. Resident Evil 4 Remake arrives on March 24, 2023 at PS5, PS4Xbox Series X|S y PC.
