Apr 9, 2023this game is amazing especially its combat, ragdoll physics and how each weapon causes a different damage/mutilation.
My interest in the game was simply to appreciate how each zombie behaves with one shot. -

Jul 23, 2020This game sets an example on how to remake a great classic game that feels fresh and at the same time nostalgic.

Mar 27, 2019Игра короткая, как этот отзыв. Вся эта ориентированность на быстрые прохождения огорчает.
-
Oct 27, 2022I didn't even like the original, or the first RE game, back then.
Thought it was already behind the times back then, if only for the weird static camera angles.
Finally got remade and done properly, as a third person game, and I enjoyed every minute of it. -
Dec 5, 2022Absolutely love this game and can confirm the other reviews are correct - this game is a masterpiece. I highly recommend this game as must play for fans of the series.
-
Sep 5, 2019Capcom has been making a huge comeback with gaming and Resident Evil 2 is no exception. Beautiful graphics, amazing controls and awesome gameplay. Some changes to story I'm not a fan of but overall something worth a playthrough.
-
Mar 2, 2019It's ok I guess Umbrella Corps is still the best Resident Evil game ever made.
Leon's quite the pussah in this one, Claire has bigger balls then he does. -
Mar 16, 2019Великолепный ремейк. Поставил девятку лишь из за того, что из тирана сделали немезиду.
-
Mar 16, 2019Resident Evil 2 reinvigorates the old style with modernized mechanics and features that work perfectly together. As a result, the tension always rises, and the game seldom ceases to exceed expectations.
-
Jun 27, 2019Resident Evil 2 answered the question of the remakes with a really good example of what people associate to the saga in terms of survival horror. The gameplay is near perfect and the redesign of the classic of 1998 comes into one of the best games of the year.
-
Jan 28, 2019Capcom did it! RE2 miracle, oasis in the desert of rotten of milliards MMMOOO and other coop **** But... now i dream of Dino Crisis 2, Resident Evil 4 REMAKE, Resident Evil 3 and Veronica! Capcom go do another miracke for us!

Aug 18, 2020One of the best horror games, hands down!! And now in a updated and remastered version. I wish I could give 9.4, but I had to round it down because there is no broken numbers in voting here on metacritic.
-
Mar 27, 2020Super scary, amazing story, really fun puzzles, great characters, fun gun play and an amazing remake!
A must buy for anyone looking for all these things -

Jan 23, 2020The game is excellent but the keyboard controls aren't the best. The controls on keyboard can be a bit weird at times so I recommend that you have a controller plugged in for the best experience.

Apr 3, 2019Zombie's animation, sound and mechanics are awesome.
Over-the-shoulder camera fits like a glove.
Good sound design.
Good atmosphere.
A bit short... and they should have included the ink ribbons mechanics on "Normal" difficulty.
Overall, amazing game and a excellent Remake. -
Feb 10, 2019Lo supieron hacer muy bien, rescatan lo que hacía muy disfrutable al juego y lo mejoran.

Feb 16, 2019The 2019 remake of the 1998 game Resident Evil 2 is superbly done. Stunning graphics thanks to the RE engine, a creepy atmosphere and good voice acting make this one of the best remakes i have played. While i think that the later part of the game is not as good as the police station and it is less scary than the fixed screen classic, we can applaud Capcom for improving an already great base game.

Feb 22, 2020Very clean and proper without any form of amateur content. Graphics, story, gameplay, puzzles and especially character progression all beautifully made.
-
Jan 20, 2021While this is not my favorite resident evil (IMO nothing tops RE4), RE2 remake is a must-play for not only RE fans but any serious multi-genre gamer. It's a high quality, well-structured game that sums up what you should expect from a survival/horror title and I assure you finishing it will be a satisfying experience.
-
Jan 26, 2019Thanks CAPCOM, very cool!
No but seriously... Maybe one of the best RE's to this date. It's scary, it has that nostalgic feel if you're looking for that but it still feels like a fresh game. If you enjoyed Resident Evil VII, you will probably enjoy this too. Especially if you like the puzzle elements.
TLDR: Is good game -
Jan 29, 2019I don't own the game but i've seen playthroughs and i like it.
Posting the review here just because i can even if i haven't played the game. -

Feb 22, 2019Developers take note, this is how you re-release a game. Built from the ground up, this game is impressive by modern standards on almost every level. Well done Capcom.

Feb 22, 2019давно не играл в такие интересные игры. всегда был интерес иследовать уровень и находить секреты. перепрошел игру 3 раза. всем рекоммендую.
-
Feb 23, 2019Great game, great replayability. Great graphics, great performance and of course so many options to us players to find balance between look and performance. The only downside I feel is the story relevantly to the canon storylines. Who is fighting who, if this happened how is that, and etc.
-
Mar 3, 2019That was awesome experience. I never played any resident evil games that one is my first resident evil game and that was awesome experience. But there are some mistakes there is no fov changer, more outfits, etc. etc. but game is good

Mar 8, 2019After the commercial success of Resident Evil 7, Resident Evil 2 brings back that primal fear of zombies that has been lacking from the series. While the black mold of RE7 is one thing to fear, as well as familial insanity, this brings it back to basics, and shows us just how terrifying the zombies of old can be.

-
Jan 17, 2020My first game of the resident evil saga, I had never tried the survival horror genre before, and this game was a good start, good puzzles not so far-fetched and not impossible, good story and character development, good graphics and good lighting, I was fascinated with the game and I look forward to the resident evil 3 remake, in the meantime I will give a chance to resident evil 1 hd remaster
-
Apr 18, 2020An almost perfect up date to a survival horror classic. All around great game with only small problems.

Jul 15, 2019Capcom just know how to make a great game. Make great games again. Thank you Capcom, it was an amazing experience

May 21, 2023It is like a nightmare when you are chased by Tyrant. However, it looks like cute when you realize you can doge all the attack through movement.
-
Oct 16, 2019RE2 remake is not only a tribute to the saga, but also a teaching of how to make a remake. The only downside of this remake is the narrative dissonance that the two campaigns present, something that the original did better.
-
Nov 2, 2019I'm beyond impressed with this remake. Amazing in almost every respect. Graphically fantastic and UI is clean and easy to use even in stressful situations. Harder difficulties are still fun.
-
Dec 22, 2020I have to admit that this Game was a blast to play, i recommend everybody who wants a challenge to play on Hard. That's how the Game is suppose to be played.
-
Jan 12, 2021O classico é mais dificil, porem nesse Remake é muito mais dificil conseguir as armas infinitas.
Comprei uma RX570 e ganhei esse game mais o Devil May Cry 5.
Aguardando o Remake do Code Veronica ou do 1. -
Mar 17, 2020The perfect remake and one of the best games in its genre.The atmosphere was especially good
-
Jul 19, 2020RE2 Remake é sem duvida um dos melhores da franquia Resident Evil, além disso tem um ótimo gameplay e gráficos de acordo com sua geração. Para um masterpiece só faltou mais iteração com os cenários, uma mecânica mais fluida do personagem e é claro, uma história épica de zumbis.

Jan 8, 2020Шикарный ремейк, шикарная атмосфера, классные зомби, импакт от стрельбы, интересно исследовать мир, жаль только битвы с боссами выглядят так себе, ну и Тиран просто шикарен)
-
May 12, 2023This game It exceeded my expectation as a remake, since the original was a masterpiece, i was scared they can't reach the bar that high, but i was wrong this is the best remake in game history, also the best resident evil game, now i hope they remake Code Veronica and 3.

Feb 19, 2020Absolutely fantastic game. I never played the original (I was only 5 when it released), but have seen videos of it. They have completely overhauled everything. Graphics and sound are astounding, the over-the-shoulder third person view is an improvement over the original as well. Also the Tyrant is one scary piece of.....

Apr 6, 2020Two decades after the release of the original trip into the biohazardous universe of Resident Evil, Capcom delivers the best instalment yet. The world you'll be thrown in is a dangerous one, and it doesn't just look the part, but also makes you feel the thrill of being a survivor like never before, as each bullet shot, each item found, and each decision taken, can make the difference between life and death. Simply put, remake or not, this is survival horror at its best.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Apr 4, 2019The remake of Resident Evil 2 succeeded and can’t be criticized for much. Converting the original game into a modern form sets the bar for all future remakes really high and shows how it should be done. [Issue#293]
