The voice acting is done by professional VAs and it really shows, which I have heard is a big step up from the original's amateur cast.
Gameplay

Not to mention, Corpse Party (while it still feels particularly niche as a franchise despite being an influential cult classic) is an incredibly long-standing franchise and this reboot with updated graphics made huge improvements and included subtle quality of life settings like the filters, that provide you with your own personal touch to the game.
