Description

The genre-defining masterpiece Resident Evil 2 returns, completely rebuilt from the ground up for a deeper narrative experience. Using Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine, Resident Evil 2 offers a fresh take on the classic survival horror saga with breathtakingly realistic visuals, heart-pounding immersive audio, a new over-the-shoulder camera, and modernized controls on top of gameplay modes from the original game.

In Resident Evil 2, the classic action, tense exploration, and puzzle solving gameplay that defined the Resident Evil series returns. Players join rookie police officer Leon Kennedy and college student Claire Redfield, who are thrust together by a disastrous outbreak in Raccoon City that transformed its population into deadly zombies. Both Leon and Claire have their own separate playable campaigns, allowing players to see the story from both characters’ perspectives. The fate of these two fan favorite characters is in players hands as they work together to survive and get to the bottom of what is behind the terrifying attack on the city. Will they make it out alive?

  • A spine-chilling reimagining of a horror classic - Based on the original release in 1998, the new game has been completely rebuilt from the ground up for a deeper narrative experience.
  • A whole new perspective – New over-the-shoulder camera mode and modernized control scheme creates a more modern take on the survival horror experience and offers players a trip down memory lane with the original gameplay modes from the 1998 release.
  • Terrifyingly realistic visuals – Built on Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine, Resident Evil 2 delivers breathtakingly photorealistic visuals whilst stunning lighting creates an up-close, intense and atmospheric experience as players roam the corridors of the Raccoon City Police Department (RPD).
  • Face the grotesque hordes – Zombies are brought to life with a horrifyingly realistic wet gore effect as they react in real time taking instant visible damage, making every bullet count.
  • Iconic series defining gameplay – Engage in frenzied combat with enemies, explore dark menacing corridors, solve puzzles to access areas and collect and use items discovered around the environment in a terrifying constant fight for survival.
  • See favorite characters in a whole new light - Join rookie police officer Leon S. Kennedy on his first day in the job and college student Claire Redfield, who is searching for her brother amidst a terrifying zombie epidemic.
  • Step into the rookie shoes of both heroes - Enjoy separately playable campaigns for both Leon and Claire, allowing players to see the story from both characters’ perspective.

I have not played any horror games since Amnesia: The Dark Descent, so I was quite dubious before delving into this game. Nonetheless, this game did indeed exceed my expectations. I truly loved every second of it, and I did not feel bored for one second (only when I was too perplexed when doing the puzzles, but those problems never got too egregious). The eerie atmosphere and tattered zombies cohere exceptionally well, creating an incredibly immersive setting.

Every time I talk about video games with my friends, I always recommended this game; it is a great icebreaker to the Resident Evil franchise if you have not played them (I had not).

I gave this game 10/10 though it is not flawless; however, for what video games are and represent today with microtransactions and battle royals, this game gratified my need to play a GOOD single player game.
  • Great gunplay
  • Nice graphics
  • Has a lot of replay-value
  • Could have been a little longer
  • Inventory management can be tedious

reached support if it would have any activation restriction in my country and they quickly replied with the support i needed, and instant delivery.

Capcom is back! This RE 2 remake is so good. To me this is how it should look RE game not in some first person view like re 7 did. I had a lot of fun playing on hardest difficulty. Everything is top notch. Every step you take you need to think about it. This is not pew pew run run fiesta. Every bullet counts. Dont waste it. Mr X makes you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ in a pants if you stay to long in one place. This feeling of danger makes your skin crawl. If you like old RE games this is for you. My only one downside is that there was no spiders in this game. Why? Doesnt make sense at all. Capcom fix this in RE 3 remake please. 9,5/10 Almost perfect.

Probably my favorite RE game from the franchise. It was very fun to play when i had time and i definitely recommend playing it when u wanna play a good horror game. All other RE games are good too but this is probably my personal favorite.

Fantastic title in the Resident Evil series. At first i was kinda annoyed by this game and thought it was overrated (even tho I am a huge fan of the RE series) but now its definitely one of my favorite games and it still manages to scare and stress me out a lot

Epic remake of the original 1998 game.

Stunning graphics, immersive atmosphere and engaging gameplay

This is the best of the Resident Evil Remakes
To be fair there isn't much in the difference between all the remakes but it's my favourite
There is 2 story modes which are different Leon and Claire. Both are great and are different storylines. Two tips conserve ammo and run like hell from Mr X
  • This is how you make a Stalker game
  • I almost wet myself at one of the jump scares

Worth Every Penny. I bought this alongside Re7 and RE8 (Still have to play 8) on a whim. Let me say I'm not disappointed with RE2. Probably in my top 10 favorite games of all time. Mr. X is my favorite part of the game without a doubt. Having him roaming the station is truly menacing. Did I also mention the police station is my favorite section of the game? Spoiler: It's because of Mr. X. Seriously though, I highly recommend this game to anyone, even if you aren't really into zombie games. I'm not a big zombie game person so i thought this would be sort of a game where i play it once and never again, but i found myself continually coming back to the game and replaying the police station section, and a few extra full playthroughs. The only thing I can think of that isn't the greatest with this game is the RTX functionality with this game. It doesn't have very good optimization for RTX and will have a lot of problems with RTX cards that don't have very much Vram (like my 4060ti 8GB). But other then that i would highly recommend this game to anyone who is on the fence of this game, because i remember playing this for the first time and being truly immersed and wish I could go back and experience that again. Because playing this game for the first time is like playing Minecraft for the first time. It is truly a unique experience that you only get once. Addendum: I also played this game blind in 2023 so I didn't know what it was about so it was an even better experience than the average person.
  • Replayability
  • Fun
  • Mr. X
  • Unoptimised RTX Features
  • No DLSS

Resident Evil 2 Remake is a phenomenal gaming experience that seamlessly combines nostalgia with modern gameplay mechanics. The updated graphics are stunning, immersing players in the dark and atmospheric scenario of Raccoon City. The revamped controls make every encounter intense and satisfying, while the intricate level design keeps you on your toes. The game strikes a perfect balance between preserving the essence of the original and introducing fresh elements. From the heart-pounding encounters with iconic enemies to the gripping storyline, Resident Evil 2 Remake is a masterful reimagining that captures the essence of survival horror. It's a must-play for both fans of the series and newcomers alike.

As a long-time fan of the Resident Evil series, I eagerly dove into the remake of Resident Evil 2 with high expectations. I'm pleased to say that this game not only met but exceeded those expectations in terms of sheer terror, immersive gameplay, and the exhilarating fun it delivered. Capcom has truly outdone themselves with this remake, capturing the essence of the original game while adding modern elements that enhance the experience. Brace yourself.
  • Immersive Atmosphere
  • Engaging Gameplay
  • Intense Survival Horror
  • Backtracking Can Be Repetitive
  • Some Puzzles Can Feel Unbalanced

Really cool game the atmosphere is amazing and the character design is nice too the enemys are amazing too the game never really got boring and was a bit scary too and it's cool that u play different characters. Definitely recommend it

i ablsolutely love this game, the RE engine makes gore amazing, how the damage of guns shows in the bodies, the story is great. the standard mode is fair and easier the more you explore but hardcore is THE challenge, and the extra modes are what you need for even more gameplay and challenges. the 4th survivor ost is a banger
