    Exactly what a modern Resident Evil title should be. It's genuinely terrifying, you get to explore every nook and cranny, the tension is always there, and it's just one excellent remake overall.

    Esse Remake é a melhor definição de como Resident Evil deveria ser nos dias atuais... 3° pessoa, lugares apertados, presença de zumbís e terror puro! Foi fiél ao clássico.

    A perfect remake and also a rethinking of the legendary re 2 from 1998, this game brings back that same feeling of fear and tension from resident evil, the perfect atmosphere for horror, good visuals and graphics, well optimized game, 4 different companies and medium difficulty, this is an example of what capcom still can!

    Resident Evil 2 Remake is interesting, but it's not a remake at all. This game is Resident Evil 7, it looks like Resident Evil 2, the important places of the game, important and special types, the original version of this remake is removed. It's interesting that the new camera was not made for Resident Evil 2. Disappointing and awful remake

Mr X is a wonderful addition, constantly keeping me on my toes and it really feels like they've nailed the distribution of resources, although I did find myself running into way more blue herbs than was really necessary. The story is actually pretty good and wholistic from both Leon's and Claire's perspectives, with enough differentiating them to make me want to finish both campaigns to get a fuller understanding of the events unfolding in Raccoon City. RE Engine looks beautiful here as well. Expand

    The atmosphere is tight, scary, and tense. The police station is one of the best video game locations ever, it's just so good and memorable! Tyrant constantly chasing you is also a great addition to the game, as it requires your fast thinking, and pushes you to think fast.

Überraschend ist, wie viel Capcom vom ursprünglichen Charme, Grusel und Spielgefühl in ein modernes Spielgewand hat übertragen können. Chapeau für diese Leistung.

    Was allerdings auch mit ins Hier uns Jetzt übertragen wurde, sind die doch sehr altbackene Spielmechaniken und schrecklich schlecht gespielten B Movie Cut-Scenes. Resident Evil 2 ist auch heute sicher noch ein gutes Spiel. Aber nur dann, wenn man die entsprechende Nostalgie für alte B Movie Horrer Schinken mitbringt. Resident Evil 2 ist heute sicherlich alles andere als kreativ und frisch. Wer frischen, inspirierten B-Movie Horror sucht, sollte sich eher einmal ein The Evil Within 2 anschauen. Wer eher auf anspruchsvolle Kost steht, der kommt an Hellblade Senua's Sacrafice nicht vorbei. Als VR Erlebnis ist auch ein Resi 7 sicher nochmals anders zu bewerten, als die neuerlichen Remakes der alten Formel aus PSOne Zeiten. Persönlich kann ich den ganzen neuerlich Hype um die Resi Remake Spiele nicht ganz nachvollziehen, wie auch den etwas überzogenen Wertungspiegel. Als Fan Service allerdings hat Capcom wirklich alles richtig gemacht.

Incrível como a Capcom caprichou aqui.

    As a remake it is incredible. Improves many flaws the original had. Combat, setting, level design, story are all very good. The lack of variety from the A and B scenarios is the main flaw. Not much of a difference between these 2 routes.

The controls are so amazing and it feels great to nail that critical headshot on every zombie. But Mr.X has to be one of the best gameplay mechanics I’ve ever seen, the foot steps you hear as your exploring makes me stop dead in my tracks and makes me horrified to move. The jumpscares in the game when not intentional make the experience so much better.

También hay que destacar sus 2 campañas (Leon y Claire), que aunque no tienen una coherencia narrativa perfecta, aportan cada una sus diferencias suficientes como para hacer que el título sea muy rejugable.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great game, creepy atmosphere, true to the original and has good replay value.

    The story feels a bit plain and dated though and the writing doesn’t feel very modern, but since it’s a remake this isn’t really a bad thing.

    + Graphics and atmosphere are great
    + Tense survival action with loads of RE-hallmarked ”Yes I made it! Aw **** now I gotta go back through there again”-moments
    + Nostalgia

    - Voice acting and writing feels shallow and quite unengaging (I can’t imagine anyone reacting to a mutated 10-foot abomination with a casual ”This HAS to be a joke.”)
    - The story feels very ”90’s”

    In particular, the love story sub-plot between Leon and Ada is incredibly cringe-worthy. It’s a good thing he didn’t stay on the force being so gullible and prone to manipulation.

    But all in all, it’s a remake that stays very true to its original while doing an incredible job of face-lifting both graphics and gameplay to make it feel modern and engaging.

Ammo synthesis helps your playstyle without making ammo excessive. Extra modes offer more action-packed sequences. This game flows very naturally from start to finish in a classic Resident Evil fashion, starting in an impressive police station that eventually branches into a massive underground lab.

    My only real complaint is that it can be easy to manipulate safe rooms to hide from enemies, mainly the guy who relentlessly chases you for a solid portion of the game, Mr. X. It would honestly be pretty fantastic if there was an option to allow him to chase you everywhere, as I consider his presence part of the peak thrill of this experience; It compliments the fluent movements between rooms rather nicely.

    This is essentially the definitive Resident Evil experience.

    After the first play-through, everything become way smoother and I start to enjoy it more and more as I've beat the game around 12-14 times.

    This is made by people who thought the original game was bad. They wanted to change every thing they could. These are not Leon and Claire. This is not Resident Evil 2. The correct word here would be imposter. This game is an imposter and its characters are imposters.

    Game play is fun for a while, until you get to a boss fight, then you will want to pull your hair out. I only play on Hardcore. I have never played on any other difficulty because then you don't get the ink ribbon and inventory experience of the original. Couldn't they have left those in tact while just making the bosses easier? Any why can't I break free from a zombie by mashing buttons, like in the original? Why can't I stomp a grounded zombies head, like in the original?

    I beat it twice, but I don't think I will ever play it again, unless there is a mod to make the bosses not suck.

    O jogo é realmente muito bom, eu adorei principalmente o sistema de dano que é incrível. A questão dos puzzles também é muito divertida. Eu espero que continuem com essa mentalidade para os próximos remakes

    I really don't have any complaints with this game at all, I guess the only complain I have is the knife shouldn't break but other than that this game is prefect. You rarely get a flawless game like this, do yourself a favour and play this game if you haven't yet. Do a run of Story A and alternate character story B this way you get the complete first story.

    This might be my favourite

    I first played the original Resident Evil 2 around the mid 2000's, many years after it's original release. By the time I got around to play it, the game and its design were a thing of the past. I enjoyed the game immensely however. Tank controls? No problem, I got used to them after an hour or two. It works well for the original games. The game was loaded with content, plenty of scares,I first played the original Resident Evil 2 around the mid 2000's, many years after it's original release. By the time I got around to play it, the game and its design were a thing of the past. I enjoyed the game immensely however. Tank controls? No problem, I got used to them after an hour or two. It works well for the original games. The game was loaded with content, plenty of scares, fun characters and an interesting yet easy to follow plot. When I first heard of the remake I was thrilled, just like many others were. CAPCOM has recently being doing things right and with the success of a great game like Monster Hunter, what could go wrong?

    The first thing I noticed was the plain ugly main menu. It's generic with the font all fighting games have nowadays. You can thank "e-sports"(lo) for that contribution. I started the game on "Hardcore" not because I think I am, but because the other difficulty settings don't require ink ribbon to save. The mode seems more as an afterthought or damage control to keep the real fans placated.

    I chose to start the game as Leon, but something was off. Here we have a foul mouthed character who curses every time he fires his weapon. I hate gratuitous cursing, but I hate blatant and obnoxious blasphemy even more. There are subtitles in the game where "God" is misspelled. I had to play the game with the voice volume turned off. I just could not stand it. It broke immersion for me. I wanted to be the one getting scared, be the one to react. Not have Leon constantly remind me of it with an avalanche of profanity. The game is loaded with profane language. After "killing" a scripted boss Leon simply says "take that you overgrown son of a b****!". Who talks like that? Teens? Claire jumps into a sewer and says "now I will literally smell like s***.". These characters cannot complete a sentence without cursing. It's a rated M game yeah I know, that doesn't mean it has to be retarded though.

    The gameplay didn't start to get boring to me until the 6th or 7th hour of the campaign. The game just isn't that scary for me. It's definitely a notch above Resident Evil 5 and 6 in terms of horror. Mr.X is the only thing that more or less injects some much needed fear into this. He could have worked better if he did something else other than grab and slam or punch you. People made such a huge deal about Mr.X, as if he was anything close to the Xenomorhp chasing you in Alien Isolation. Now that is something to crap your pants over.

    Maybe the game was meant to be played on normal because "hardcore" seems really tough, but not in a good way. Navigating through the game can be done on auto-pilot, there is the illusion that it's an old school RE game, but it's not. It's pretty straight forward and the puzzles are on the easy side. CAPCOM had the right idea with it, but they clearly didn't want to exclude everyone who isn't a die hard RE fan. So the game has an identity crisis, retain the few old school fans and sell to everyone else at the same time. Aside from the graphics, this game does everything else from mediocre to standard. The jack of all trades, but master of none. This game has no soul, but nobody is going to agree. Everyone wants RE to succeed and I do too, but not if it means lying to myself. I decided to try Claire's campaign, this time on normal. Turns out that the two campaigns are almost identical. I thought CAPCOM has said this would not be the case, or something to that effect, what a letdown.

    Something else I would like to add is that you can't skip the death cutscenes. You have to watch them every time you die. Worst part is that it they are in 30FPS. There is now a texture mod for the original RE2. Give that a go, suffer the controls for a bit and the dated graphics. After a few hours you won't even care or notice it. What you'll find in it is a game with soul and love. A game that is truly challenging, engaging and scary. Not this modern crap.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Remaking one of the scariest games ever, that is not easy to do at all. The remake has amazing graphics, lovable characters, fun weapons to use, & the Ghost survivor stories are great & they give a reasonable challenge for Die-Hard RE Fans & New RE players (like me). Amazing acting & voicing by the main cast by Nick Apostolides (Leon), Stephanie Pansibello (Claire), & Jolene Anderson (Ada).

    The individual stories between Leon and Claire show enough charm & charisma that it made me cry. In Leon's Story, he's a rookie cop who just earned his promotion not long ago and he sees such horrific things that he realizes that his future working as a RPD cop by solving crimes & arresting criminals won't be in his future after he sees that everyone around him turns into zombies. Before Leon escapes the station, he's encountered by FBI Agent Ada Wong where they find a reporter named Ben who has been imprisoned by Chief Irons for investigating Umbrella Corp. When the two enter the sewers, Ada & Leon try to find the suspect responsible for the Raccoon City Outbreak, Annette Birkin. When Annette tries to escape she tries to shoot Ada but Leon sacrifices himself and passes out. Ada tries to pursue Annette but she falls into a trash compactor and is also injured. Leon saves her & the two ride a cable car to NEST to secure a sample of the G-Virus but Leon fights a more dangerous William. After defeating William once again, Annette tells Leon that Ada isn't an FBI agent, that she's a mercenary. Leon tells Ada about what happened, then she confronts to Leon that she's a mercenary. When the two refuse to shoot one another, Annette shoots Ada where she falls off a bridge where Ada falls to her death. Finally, Leon almost escapes the lab where he is ambushed by the Tyrant where it transforms into a Super Tyrant during his final escape of this nightmare. Ada survives the fall and she helps Leon one more time by tossing a rocket launcher, where he kills the Tyrant & escapes on an evacuating train.

    Claire's story is an emotional fest all around. At the start of Claire's story, she's a lonely college student with barely any friends (no offense at all), her parents die at a young age which results in Claire being an orphan, & her brother Chris was the only person taking care of her. When she gets separated from Leon (whichever scenario you do), Claire gets lonely again. After escaping the RPD station, Claire meets a little girl named Sherry all alone hiding from a destructive monster. Next, when the girls try to escape the station, they encounter Chief Irons where he threatens to kill Claire if Sherry doesn't come with him. When Irons abducts Sherry, she gets lonely again but we see that Claire has feelings for Sherry. After escaping the orphanage, Claire meets up with Sherry's mother Annette, where she tells Claire everything that caused the outbreak in the first place. Claire finds Sherry but Annette tells Claire that her daughter has been infected & can't be saved. When their conversation ends, we get to see a deeper relationship between the girls because Claire tells Sherry that she cares for her. After receiving the vaccine, Annette is attacked and fatally injured by her monstrous husband where Claire ends up defeating the monster again. Before leaving NEST, Claire finds that Annette is slow dying vaccinating her daughter & with no time to be saved, Sherry mourns a goodbye to her mother. The Girls rush out of the facility as quickly as possible, where once again William appears bigger and is defeated again & they leave.

    Finally, Leon, Claire, & Sherry reunite where the 5th and final time William is there. This time he transform into a wall of flesh and fangs eating the back of the evacuating train. Claire and Leon almost get killed but they manage to uncouple William's tram and he finally dies. As the Three Survivors escape, they continue their fight to Umbrella where they live a weird happily ever after.

    This game is the GOAT of Video Game remakes & IMO the 2019 Game of the Year!

    My first RE game. Always thought these games were solely about two things — action and silly b-movie plot. This game has both, but it is a good horror in the meantime. I will never forget first emergence of Tyrant and that slowly increasing sound of his steps, meaning — HE IS APPROACHING! God, it was soooo tense.

    Amazing 10-hours-long thriller. That episode in sewer was quite dull

    An amazing game on its own, and a fantastic remake, I think, I never played the original, but I've heard that.

    Resident Evil 2 is a remake of the ps1 classic by the same name, and with my limited knowledge of the original and therefore lack of nostalgia, I can safely say this game is downright flawless... with a few flaws. For starters regardless of your decided order, you will repeat boss fights in the B campaign, even when it breaks canon, playing Leon B was definitely soiled a bit by the fact I had to do the exact same boss fight in the exact same way with the exact same outcome earlier when I played as Claire in the "A Scenario" That, by the way is this games gimmick, its A and B scenario. If you decide to play as Claire's A Scenario first, you will then unlock Leon's B Scenario, which can be reversed by picking Leon first and then Claire, giving this game a total of 4 ways to play it if you want full completion, albeit with minor differences, but hey, whatever gives me another excuse to keep playing.

    The story this time around is fairly simple, it is a Resident Evil game after all, you play as either Leon S. Kennedy of RE4 fame, as a rookie cop moving to Raccoon City, and as Claire Redfield, a college student trying to find her brother, Chris from the first game, two very basic characters coming off the back of the first game where we played as a Special Forces unit, not that I'm complaining, they definitely grow into more hardened and comically badass characters by the end, spouting one liners that would even make Barry "Jill Sandwich" Burton proud. When our characters make it into the city, they find it overrun by zombies created from the G-Virus, a mutagenic evolution of the T-Virus created by Dr. William Birkin which spreads after Umbrella shoots him to near death and the Vials containing the virus breaks, mutating Birkin and spreading as a result. Later in the game we both fight Birkin and find his daughter, Sherry Birkin who, in Claire's campaign, we're tasked with protecting, we also find his wife, who's far more involved with everything than we realize at first, as for Leon's campaign, it's the first time we meet Ada Wong, she is however teased in the first game as her name is the password for a scientist known as John in the underground lab of the Spencer Mansion, to my knowledge, Ada never makes mention of John and it's largely gone forgotten, but conceptually she was looking for John in the original RE2 before she was changed to being the sexy, treacherous, Revolver Ocelot-like character we all know and love today. There's also characters such as Marvin, an infected cop we meet at the precinct, what I love about Marvin is the different way's he treats Leon and Claire, he knows Chris, and knowing Claire is his sister, he's very nice and patient with her, while with Leon, he's far more stern and authoritative, while still treating him with a manner of kindness, as Leon's higher up, he's a great character and I wish we got to see more of him. Then there's the kind of villain Chief Irons, he's comically evil and I find him pretty unimpactful, but with him out of the way we can talk about the real big bad, Mr. X, or officially, "Tyrant" sent by Umbrella to deal with anybody who could leak information about their involvement in the incident... I THINK, he's not really explained here, he just IS, I'm sure supplementary material clears this up but that's not the game is it?! Mr. X is a big hulking... well Tyrant, he'll stalk you around the police station, never giving up, and for the most part, he's an entirely natural part of the game, he reacts to your actions fluidly, and may not show up in the same place twice if you happen to die and replay a section, keeping you on your toes at all times, never sure just where he is. To make matters better, youtubers like Boundary Break have shown, he is an active entity in the game, not one that just teleports outside a door occasionally to spook you, he's always walking around, ever present, all the time.

    Gameplay wise, it's a standard third person shooter affair, nothing fancy, but it works very well, the camera is over the shoulder, giving us a good view of the character model and our surroundings at all times, I think it fits the series perfectly, far better than the first person camera of the non-remake games.

    To end it, I think RE2 excels as a game, I can't judge how it holds up as a remake, but on its own merit, it's worth your time and then some.

They no longer run when there is a giant guy after them, on the contrary, they "run" as if they were walking down the avenue. Not to mention that they are so weak that they can't even keep a zombie away when it grabs them.A really well done remake.

Not to mention that they are so weak that they can't even keep a zombie away when it grabs them. The protagonists have a very precarious intelligence. Another very annoying point is that zombies are almost immortal. To a creature with rotten and weak flesh, they appear to be too strong. A shot or two at most should be enough to kill a zombie. When the brain is hit, body activity is over, nothing else works. The game also has very exaggerated enemies, some seem too forced. A guy with an arm the size of a building with an eye in the middle, a crododile the size of a bus, zombies that have become trees ... Expand

    If RE2 was already one of my favorites, this adaptation enhances it in the best way, a good mix between RE2 + RE4 + RE7.

    PS. I think my only complaint would be that I don't consider this title as a remake, if not a reinterpretation, due to the big camera change, don't get me wrong, I love this perspective from the shoulder, but I think that for it to be a remake, a classic camera was necessary. Still it's one of my favorite RE (better than RE 7, btw).

    On retrouve nos chers protagonistes, Leon Kennedy et Claire Redfield, s'imprégnant dans une aventure horrifique à Racoon City, et leurs but...est bien de survivre !

    """
    Ce qui fait la diversité de ce jeu, c'est qu'il y a deux modes histoire, le premier où tu vas incarner Leon Kennedy, et le second où tu vas incarner Claire Redfield. En plus, l'intelligence de ce jeu c'est que, peut importe si tu incarne tel(s) personnage (s), l'histoire est la même et les événements se dérouleront de la même façon. En gros les séquences se suivent même avec les histoires différentes.
    """

    """
    Le jeu est composé d'un mode facile, normal et hardcore. D'ailleurs, après l'avoir fini, vous aurez quelques **** bonus pour prolonger le plaisir. En gros ce sera d'autres **** gameplay, enfin d'autres défis, qui auront des difficultés différentes, parce que certains sont plus durs que d'autres.
    """

    D'ailleurs il n'est pas facile (même si tu le met en mode facile), vous aurez beaucoup d'énigmes, d'ailleurs elles se trouvent beaucoup dans la partie du commissariat. D'ailleurs qu'est ce que je pense de la partie du commissariat ?

    COMMISSARIAT (CRITIQUE) :
    C'est une excellente partie, d'où l'espace est gigantesque pour nous faire découvrir tel(s) et tel(s) énigmes. Pour faire renforcer l'ambiance horrifique, il y aura bien sûr, quelques endroits plongés dans le noir d'où certaines créatures (qui sont puissantes niveau des attaques), feront leurs présences. Mais ce n'est pas tout, l'énorme point fort du jeu c'est
    """
    que une créature gigantesque, du nom de Mr X alias le Tyrant, vous poursuivra sans arrêt dans tout le commissariat
    """
    , histoire de nous mettre plus en tension, ce qui créera une sorte de course contre la montre.

    D'ailleurs comme je le dis, il n'est absolument pas facile, parce que le faite de viser la tête d'un zombie n'est pas du tout évident, surtout si il passe son temps à bouger... un conseil, si vous voulez en ralentir un, visez les jambes ;)

    D'ailleurs, une erreur à ne pas absolument faire :
    *Ca ne sert à rien de tirer toutes vos balles sur le tyrant, du coup vous aurez épuiser toutes vos munitions et il ne mourra pas, car il est invincible*

    EN COMBIEN DE TEMPS SE FINIT-IL ?
    En 10 heures, mais si vous l'avez déjà fini, et que vous le refaite cette fois-ci en speedrunnant, le temps de gameplay sera de 3h.

    Qui est le plus beau ? Claire ou Leon ?

    """
    Ce n'est pas important, bien sûr que je n'allais pas aborder ce point ;)
    """

    LES POINTS POSITIFS :
    - Un Tyrant invincible qui vous poursuit sans arrêt
    - Une excellente ambiance et un environnement agréable
    - Une scène de fin explosive !
    - Un alligator zombifié
    - Aucun bug !
    - Des graphismes excellents bien sûr !

    LES POINTS NEGATIFS :
    - Le fait qu'on ne puisse pas esquiver les attaques
    - Le fait de viser la tête d'un zombie n'est pas évident (peut importe la sensibilité)
    - Qu'on ne puisse pas survivre à l'attaque d'une créature (qui a l'apparence d'une plante) dans le labo !

    CONCLUSION : Un chef-d'oeuvre du genre des jeux horrifiques !

    el comportamiento de algunos enemigos tampoco queda bien
    zombies que se levantan 4 veces después de llevar una docena de disparos en la cabeza, o lickers que no saben cruzar puertas

    la historia no me encaja bien con el original

    Great game, only complaint was the Mr X sections and the Zombied taking to many shots. It lacked the satisfaction of clearing a room as you never knew ifva Zombie was dead. I get why they did it, But I would have prefered more Zombies filling the rooms than the same one coming back. Beside that , great combat, ballaced perfect, a bit more would have been nice.
    I ruined my second

    I ruined my second playthrough when I bought a key that unlocked all weopns so that sucked.

    Ótimo jogo. Manteve a atmosfera do clássico introduzindo nova jogabilidade sem deixar o material original de lado.

    I played the original on PC when it first came out so when this was released it was a must-play for me.

    Changes to the game were very noticeable and very welcome for me: OTS view, updated graphics, new and expanded areas... The puzzles changed up a bit and that was nice as it gave a returning fan a new experience. Had a blast playing through, multiple times, and in the extra modes as

    É difícil achar um remake que supera o original com tanta folga quanto Resident Evil 2 conseguiu superar. É o jogo definitivo de Survival Horror.

    The 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]

    The stunning graphics, incredible survival horror combat and wonderfully eerie setting make picking up a copy of Resident Evil 2 a no-brainer.

    Resident 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.
