Apr 25, 2021Fantastic remake that sticks to the plot of the original, setting and story while making enough modern enhancements so it feels like a new game. This is how you recreate a classic. A must play for fans of the series.

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.

May 14, 2021amazing game, amazing remake, brought back so many memories, the graphics are amazing, thank you capcom

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.

Sep 15, 2019The remaster of this game is amazing. I am a fan of the series, but not as much as my wife. She has spent a lot of time playing this game and hasn't felt disappointed in the time spent. Time well spent. This game series is what started a whole genre.

Apr 6, 2022Well...so far, the BEST remake in the history of Video Games. Great on PC as well. Incredible graphics, outstanding gameplay, i spent 80+ hours in this game. Thanks for a reminder of my PlayStation 1 childhood with this amazing new engine and style.

Jul 27, 2020As a guy with no nostalgic connection to RE, I really enjoyed this game. Spooky as hell, great graphics (specially in the cutscenes) and fun puzzlesolving.

Apr 7, 2020We might never get a remake of a resident evil game that tops this one. It really felt like a resident evil game.
-
Jul 30, 2020Pretty boring. Lots of walking around and just picking up items and trying to figure out where to go next. After getting 1 of 3 medallions in the first cop station I quit and skipped through a youtube playthrough instead, then uninstalled.
The story is weird - like how casually the only 2 people left alive leave each other to fend for themselves. -
May 7, 2020The perfect remake! Perfect for old and new players! Worth every penny, good job capcom
-
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.

Aug 11, 2023One of the best games of all time. Great package overall, beautiful graphics, great optimisation, so much content for a very low price. This is what survival horror is all about!
-
Apr 6, 2020Wow! Godlike! Capcom, PLEASE!!! Do a Resident Evil 0,1, Code Veronica remakes in the same style as RE2!!! Everything is good in RE2 Remake
-
Apr 10, 2020Excelente adaptação. O jogo ficou sensacional ! Tudo é perfeito, os gráficos, iluminação, jogabilidade, momentos tensos. Simplimente sensacional. Recomendo!

Apr 3, 2020Truly a masterpiece. From the start to the end this game is worth buying. It stays honest to its original and also add some part like sherry on orphanage. It has 2 main story and have option a and b for both of the characters. Totally blown away.

Apr 28, 2020This is a great game with great graphics, a grandiose system of damage to enemies and an interesting story
-
May 20, 2020The game is good but how many times plans the developer capcom to recycle their graphic-engine. they used it for like 4 or maybe 5 games and the graphics are not the state of the art anymore
-

Jan 6, 2022Little bit short but there is lot of content especially after first play through. Graphics is really great and moding community is amazing.
-
Apr 10, 2023Доволі непоганий ремейк. Хоч тут 2 сценарія замість 4, як у оригіналі, але цього вистачить, щоб смакувати цю гру. У цій частині подобається система частин тіла у зомбі
-
Jul 6, 2020excelente juego sin importar si jugaste el original, no necesitas ser un fan de la franquicia para darte cuenta de la calidad de este titulo, no tengo mucho que decir, grandiosos gráficos, buena historia con adaptaciones razonables para mi un 10
-
May 27, 2023pros:
- atmosphere
- level design is great
- graphics
- nice shooting
cons:
- Tyrant is a joke
- stupid story decisions
- boring boss fights
In general, the first half was amazing, but in the second half everything became much worse. Especially Tyrant, he ruined so much of the atmosphere. He's not scary, not challenging, he's just annoying. -
Jun 28, 2020This was perfect. It is how I dream every remake should be like. Unfortunately, they didn't follow the same path while remaking Resident Evil 3, so that was dissappointing.
-
Dec 25, 2021Fun resource management, still not sold on the story and characters as with Village and Biohazard, but the survival horror experience is still at its finest.
-
Aug 1, 2023ele é fiel ao classico mas nao completamente, os cenarios do leon e da claire nao se encaixam , graficos bons,o gore é muito bem feito e impressionante , capcom esta de parabens com esse game
-
Jul 4, 2020Very interesting game.
It has perfect suspence, comfortable gameplay, nice graphic, but I love story in games. What about story? It's cliche and I don't feel a pity to characters. -
Jul 10, 2020I as a fan of Resident Evil 4, I will say that RE2 Remake does not look like old part 2 (1998) at all, except for the locations, characters and plot. And so a lot of mechanics are taken from modern Resident Evil, the game is very similar to my favorite part 4. So my rating is 10/10
-
May 25, 2021Claire and Ada are both **** hot. The game was pretty good too. Mr. X was too scary not to be scary and the inventory management didn'tr really do much beside making you go and get **** and go back and put it in your ****ty **** chest. 10/10 tho
-
Sep 4, 2023this game is absolute garbage and its not even horror game.You just solve bunch of puzzles with bad camera angle
it is hard to to find your way trough and you should go back and forth to solve these trash puzzles , some guns have unlimited ammo and you haven't challenge while shooting
character face models and textures having low quality and even characters facial expressions are not so well -

May 28, 2021I really like this game. That's really cool that new players who haven't seen the game of 1998 could have some interes in playing the oldest part after the new one. **** is feeling great
-
May 18, 2021The game looks stunning, Graphics looks amazing, but if you gonna go into the game thinking the game will be scary, Then you'll be disappointed. The game isn't scary at all. there are some scary moments but they are very little.
Conclusion:- Buy the Game. -

May 11, 2021Capcom has done a fabulous job with this remake, i never played the original RESI2 but this game on its own is so great, one of the best horror games i played in years. Might be my favorite video game of 2019.
-
Sep 10, 2023Terrible control scheme for PC. typical Capcom game, the port to PC is bad. Some of the puzzles are a joke, there is no logic to them. You can go on the Internet and find the answers to the codes but there's no logic to it in the game. The sites give you the code but not how it can be found in the game. This game is really a poor design, real disappointment.
-
Jan 28, 2021Great game, the replayability is through the roof. At times the game can be frustrating but as long as you be careful you can miss the frustrating bits at least a little.

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]
