Featured reviews
Back in 2002 after RE1 remake was made, fans wanted a remake of RE2. In 2015, the game was announce in development and was finally released 4 years later and it was worth it.
Well done to Capcom, this is how a remake should be done! Resident Evil was the first game I ever played and RE2 was the best game in the entire series for me. The original game was stunning for its time but this remake came at the perfect time and boy did Capcom go all out. Resident Evil 2 remake is a survival horror masterpiece.
The sense of nostalgia is definitely there as it brings back all of the great memories from the original, and sets an unbelievably high standard for video game remakes. The attention to detail that the creators have put into this game is stunning and gives you a real sense of being scared and Resident Evil 2 not only looks great, it plays well, and it forces you into a series of dark encounters that are a total rush.
This is definitely not a game for the faint hearted but a game everyone should own. A stunningly beautiful game and definitely a contender for GOTY!!

- TriviaA fan-remake of Resident Evil 2 (1998) called "Resident Evil 2: Reborn" was in the works, which was built on the Unreal Engine 4. The release was planned for late 2015 and would have been available as a free download. However, in August 2015, Capcom politely asked the developers to cancel the project, as an official remake was in the works. After the team agreed to cancel the fan-project, Capcom invited them to the studio so they could add their own input on the remake.
- GoofsThis game is set in 1998. However, when playing as Leon, he is driving a 2007 Jeep Wrangler the very beginning of the game.
