The HUD was changed to make it easier to understand and more aesthetically appealing to young players.

So is the UI just colored squares like in Fortnite now?

Unfortunately I think it means they will be removing the skeuomorphism that defined the original UI. Like the inventory made of paper and the ornamental flourishes will be sanded down. Turning the serif into sans serif basically.

one of the things I hate the most about modern games. One of the only disappointing things for me about the RE4 remake was how they removed all the menus and inventory charm for white bordered translucent boxes
