Named after Zoomers + the word remake, the term is used for remakes of old, famous classic franchises usually favored by Millennials or Zoomers during their childhood. Zoomakes are remakes that were specifically designed to appeal to the new generation by modifying the story or gameplay in order to appeal to the modern audience.
A typical zoomake would be Resident Evil 4 Remake. Changing Ada's voice actor for the worse to match her ethnicity or removing entire sections of the game because they were too long or hard for a modern audience is one example of game developers trying to make a zoomake to appeal to the new generation of gamers.
