The Resident Evil 4 Remake launches on March 24 and has two regional launch times for PC players. The short version is that the remake will launch at midnight eastern for the Americas and midnight UK time for everyone else around the world. Preloading has already started for all platforms, so if you've digitally preordered the game you can start downloading right now.

Just like with the Diablo 4 beta times, the Resident Evil 4 Remake launches during the extra-special two weeks of the season when North America and Europe are out of daylight savings time sync. So long as no one has goofed the time conversions, the above should be the Steam unlock time for the game.
While you wait for the magical minute, you can check out our Resident Evil 4 Remake review in which Resident Evil enjoyer Rich Stanton gave it a praiseworthy 80% score but also said it's "a great game in its own right, but can't hold a candle to the original."
