Why does nobody question the price tag in general? 60 USD for a remake, sounds outrageous, no matter what platform.
By the way you can buy the game for almost half price on other platforms in digital and physical form as well. They are just taking the piss.

Because it's a remake. Meaning, it's been re-made. Not remastered. Not reusing assets. Built from scratch. That costs money. If anything, it cost Capcom even more money than the original did, so it's actually impressive that it costs the same now as it did when the original came out.
And porting it to Apple's platforms costs even more money, on top of all that.

Fat lot of good that does for the people who don't own those platforms.

Would you expect a discount on a Disney live action remake because it was based on one of their older films?
Would you pay 60 USD for a new streaming service HD version if the Blue ray is available for 30 USD?
Depends. Do you have a Blu-ray player?
Lets say I'm an average movie enjoyer and I either have a dedicated player or game console with Blue ray capabilities.
Also for streaming in this analog you require an expensive dedicated device.
While we're at it, let's remember that this version allows for portable play that can also be plugged into a TV with nothing more than a cable and Bluetooth controller. Or if you really want to play on a PC setup and have a Mac (hint: if you're in the market for an iPhone 15 Pro, it's likely that you do) you can switch to that at no extra cost.
You may not pay an extra $30 for that, but plenty of people would consider that reasonable.
I'd expect a discount on a Disney live action remake because they're horseshit, but that point doesn't answer your question lol.
