I played the PS4 port of the original in '21 and thought it felt overwhelmingly like a contemporary game. It that sense, the remake is solid but isn't revelatory in the context of gaming today. The remake feels like it flexes most when it shines the light on camp shit from the original - Leon's stupid dialogue, Ashley's Razr phone (and the time period in general), Ada's stunts in stilettos.
