    Pedazo de cacho de juegarral, una atmósfera de terror con elementos clásicos de la saga y esa cámara al hombro que tantísimo me gusta, perfectamente doblado al castellano.

    The classic Resident Evil game that sets the action and horror level very well. Although I got to know the Resident Evil series with the 7th game, this was my favorite game. really successful.

    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.

    Listen Square Enix, this is how you do a remake.

    The atmosphere and plot were mostly kept faithful to. The original soundtrack is available (and still better, frankly.) But the gameplay and graphics are a huge step up. The combat is improved, and Mr X as a roaming enemy is a fantastic idea. Its basically every thing a remake should be.

    O melhor de todos os Resident que segue a linha de terceira pessoa. Melhor até que o 7 e o 8. É um jogo muito tenso e desafiador. É impressionante o respeito pela franquia nesse jogo, é extremamente bem feito, mantém o que há de melhor nos jogos antigos e melhora em outros pontos. A terceira pessoa é excelente!

    THE BEST RESIDENT EVIL GAME AND ONE OF THE BEST REMAKES OF ALL TIME. Honestly Resident evil has been on such a good surge recently and playing through this remake was incredible. It completely changed the original with the camera angle system and old school combat system yet still managed to make it even more scary. From the second you enter Racoon City you already know what you're in for.THE BEST RESIDENT EVIL GAME AND ONE OF THE BEST REMAKES OF ALL TIME.

I don't want to go on for too long but this game makes the original better in every single way and ugh just I love everything about this game from how gory it is, running from Mr X, those horrible lickers, the incredible map design, and lastly how repayable the game is.… Expand

    Now this is what a remake should be like!

    -Astonishing graphics. -Amazing Gameplay. -Combat against the zombies is just like you would expect it to be in real life. The way the enemies move and behave is just perfect. -Sound is great -Length is great -Level Design is awesome. -No big changes in the story. For me simply one of the best games of the last decade. Playing it on    Now this is what a remake should be like!

    -Sound is great
    -Length is great
    -Level Design is awesome.
    -No big changes in the story.

    For me simply one of the best games of the last decade. Playing it on the hardest mode is just what a Game, playing in a Zombie Apocalypse, should feel like. You think twice what kinda equipment you carry and what move you make next, because everything is deadly. In my honest opinion: this game is just perfect. Played through it a couple of times. Love it every time I do.
    The chances of ruining a remake and therefore pulling the original title with it into the abyss of disappointment are always pretty high. Especially if you change a game so drastically in turns of perspective like this one. From the original locked camera game with is almost non dynamic but more tactical approach, to a third person shooter, what makes a game insanely more dynamic just by that change. And with that change of perspective it is easy to induce too much action into it. (Resident evil 4 Is a good example here, because of the third person perspective and the fast shooting, loading and aiming, the action factor is pretty high.) To not loose the connection to the original tactical feeling is the art. But they mastered this links between old and new perfectly. It really feels like the original resident evil 2 in third person. Very well done Capcom!    … Expand

    Basically linear survival horror perfected.

    Resident Evil 2 remake has become a prime example of how to reimagine a game. I love the game's simple but charming story, horrific and unique enemies, and incredibly well designed locations to investigate.

    RE2R is a thrilling ride.

Trazendo o terror vivido por Claire Redfield e Leon S. Kennedy em Raccon City, Resident Evil 2 possui apenas pontos positivos. Sobre a gameplay: muito mais dinâmica com a câmera over the shoulder e a possibilidade de movimentação ao mirar, pois antes a câmera era fixa e não era permitido a movimentação ao usar uma arma, o que tornava a gameplay muito engessada e longe da realidade; o sistema de backtracking está bastante presente nesse jogo, sendo uma marca registrada na franquia. Sobre os gráficos e ambientação: estão perfeitos, e em cada ambiente há um nível de detalhe e realismo muito bem feito ao ponto de você sentir que está mesmo dentro do universo de Resident Evil; a iluminação é um ponto muito alto aqui. Sobre os inimigos: imprevisíveis e resistentes, o que faz você refletir se vale a pena gastar seus recursos ou apenas ignorá-los; há excelentes batalhas de chefes. Sobre a história: o drama aqui é de longe muito melhor que o original, onde a dublagem era muito mecanizada e não transmitia emoções; aqui sentiremos o desespero dos personagens em buscar uma saída, bem como mostram mais sua personalidade durante o decorrer do jogo, seja nas cutscenes ou na própria gameplay, onde os personagens são reativos aos inimigos. O drama envolvendo a família Birkin é melhor explorado também. O terror está presente do começo ao fim, e mesmo finalizando o jogo várias vezes, ele consegue trazer esse sentimento cada nova campanha. O jogo possui um fator replay muito grande, não só pelo fato de ser dividido em duas jornadas, mas que a experiência é tão positiva que faz você querer testar suas habilidades em uma dificuldade mais avançada ou para desbloquear as recompensas por rank. Vale muito a pena jogar Resident Evil 2.… Expand

    Great horror game. Gameplay is smooth, there is good action and it has scary chases through the map. Atmosphere keeps you on your toes with tension if you have enough to survive next minutes.

    Fantastic video game! Super fun as exciting and, above all, fascinating.
    Kudos to the developers for hunting this pearl in an increasingly barren market. Well done!

    P.S. it works great

    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]

    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.
