Aug 24, 2020This's how a remake must be! Capcom do right job doing it, unchanging the story core but change everything (to better).
RE2 Remake has a bunch a things to enjoy .... several hours just playing new game but felling playing old RE2! -
Jan 28, 2019Someone should explain to the Raccoon City Police Department that it is highly inefficient to require 6 different kinds of keys to access all the various wings in their building.
9/10 -

Aug 5, 2019Highly overrated but a good game. It is no chance that RE2 Remake is better than RE4, but of course that is my opinion. This game represents a decent story with interesting characters and have some great and scary moments, but the overall experience is okey. It's a kinda game we all have played before so I give it a 8/10.

Feb 19, 2019The absolute remake of a timless classic
the only reason I am giving this a '9' is that it is infact, a remake, and not an entirely original work --
The gameplay is the best the series has ever seen and the zombies never felt and scarier; the physics are also top notch
RE Engine is a beast. -

Oct 15, 2019In 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

Mar 8, 2019I always hated horror games, and I'd never played a resident evil game but playing RE2 remake changed my mind it's really a great game the level design could be better but the game is still so exciting to play

Feb 10, 2019Positives:
+ Beautiful Graphics
+ Intriguing Story
+ Gameplay
+ Replayable
Negatives:
- Slight Rendering Issues -
Feb 6, 2019I haven't played RE2 close on 20 years now, but what amazes me is how this remake can make me feel just like I felt back then. It is so much better with the modern graphics and gameplay, way better voice acting. I don't mind Leon's new face much and I definitely like the new Claire more. I hope they'll do Nemesis next, maybe even Code Veronica.

Dec 7, 2020A great remake of a classic. The original RE2 defines the genre. The remake brings it to the modern standard.
-
Jan 28, 2019Still surprised on how much this game has to offer. This game gets you at the edge of your seat most of the time. Remember when 5 zombies could still not be a threat, this time I pray on not finding more than one in a room. Love the feel, love the tension. This is the resident evil that I love.

Aug 4, 2020Capcom understood how a Survival horror should be, and they did very well with this in every aspect. Bravo !!!
-
Aug 23, 2020A masterpiece by all means!In these days you can't really find a great survivor horror game,now capcom remaking one of its best games ever made is what I call a real RE game and true SH
-
Feb 17, 2019Very fun game, it's near Picture perfect compared to the original RE2 game. I had a blast playing it and there is no MTX here and plus there is more free dlc coming out for this game on top of an already masterpice worthy game. It's fantastic!

Feb 18, 2019De los mejores remake que e jugado hasta el momento, el trabajo hecho en la renovación del juego, el apartado gráfico y las físicas de los zombis es excelso, la verdad es que lograron renovar el juego y al mismo tiempo que conservar los factores que nos traen los recuerdos del la entrega original, una verdadera joya

Mar 7, 2019This game really exceeds my Expectations. I love the original and this remake is even better. I love the extra content they added.playing as ada was so much fun and playing as Sherry was terrifying trying to hide from that creep. Then they gave us free DLC! Hopefully Capcom will remake others!

Feb 23, 2019I don't really have anything bad to say about this game other than, personally, I feel like the leap that this game made to the more refined generation of consoles and gameplay makes for a bit more to be desired from a hardcore fan's perspective. Otherwise, near perfection!
-
Feb 25, 2019Well well, damn good ! Great graphics optimization she is just beautiful.
The game deserves its appreciation. -
Feb 26, 2019An absolute Masterpiece! Just like the original!
Incredible graphics, intense atmosphere, terrifying enemies and a sky high replay-ability.
A certain absolute MUST PLAY! -
Feb 28, 2019Это не ремастер, это полноценная игра, крутая игра.
ВСЕ отлично,
минус пол бала за повествование и за сюжет. -
Feb 28, 2019Leon has the best rendered pouty lips I've ever seen in a game 10/10 would smooch in the rain. Gave it a 9 because they're only half the game, which itself plays great.

Mar 14, 2019Awesome game. Honestly it was scary and really INTENSE, i even had a nightmare the first night that I played it! Now that says a lot. I would give it a 10 if I wouldn't now this is a remake. Still really worth it.

Mar 16, 2019If you are looking for a great story, some scary stuff, a shooting challenge, then this is the game for you. Do not expect zombies to go easy on you, you'll need to work hard to get this through. Such a great game, good job Capcom, now go and work on RE3.
-
Mar 18, 2019It is, if not, the best game ever. Sounds, movements are fluid. No bugs at ALL. The game is a Capcom's masterpiece! Its price is totally worthy.

Apr 22, 2019Después de haberlo jugado en sus dos personajes, puedo decir que es un juego excelente que me gustó mucho... una remake hecho a la altura y espero nuevos remake de esta calidad
-
Apr 23, 2019Phenomenal. I loved the care and devotion that was put into this effort. This was a devoted effort toward that classic game, and it shows. For once in a long time, I actually am wishing there were DLC for this so that I could continue exploring in the engine that they've created. Expanding upon the lore, would be awesome here...
-
May 2, 2019Congratulations to Capcom, they made a real resident evil after more than 17 years, I thought the game would be back to action, something like revelations 2, but the gameplay is just like the classic games, just changing the camera that is in the back of the protagonist as in modern games, the tension that there was in the first games is back, 10 out of 10

May 30, 2019Gran remake con la misma esencia del original de 1998.Una nueva jugabilidad con la cámara al hombro, normal en los tiempos que corren. Unos gráficos maravillosos y que enamoraran a los seguidores de la franquicia. La única pega es que en segundo escenario se repiten los boses cosa que no tiene sentido y no ocurría en el original. Por todo lo demás un 10 como la copa de un pino.
-
Jan 30, 2021Most definitely my game of the year from 2019. The best remake ever, hands down. Pure brilliance!!
-
Apr 6, 2020Pretty decent experience first time i play a RE game i guess it stands it's legacy for what it is
A good game with good scares a B+ movie script and lots of bloody zombies
Totally recommend it -

Apr 7, 2020A great game. It just lacked a little more attention with the crossing of the campaigns. And besides, not developing more of the secondary characters' stories was a missed opportunity.
-
Apr 15, 2020the game looks and plays great. the only gripe i have with it is the way mr x follows in real time throughout the police station. it takes away from the original feel as it is it just way too constant. i also find the game to be short for 2020

-
May 14, 2020Thank you for making this so much. It was. Ton of fun to play.....the only reason I took a point off was because I found the DLC to be lack luster. I don’t want a bunch of time trials, I want stories to enjoy at my own pace.

CD-ActionDec 11, 2019The atmosphere of horror is overwhelming and proves that in 2019 there is a place for a Resident-like story in which the modern visuals heighten and not lessen the fear. It’s the best Resident Evil ever. [03/2019, p.40]
-
Jun 29, 2019The stunning graphics, incredible survival horror combat and wonderfully eerie setting make picking up a copy of Resident Evil 2 a no-brainer.

Mar 14, 2019Resident Evil 2 is a wonderful recreation of a believed original that, not only recaptures the glory of that game, but also improves upon it from a visual and gameplay standpoint. All in all, don’t miss out on this one.
