Feb 15, 2019Un recuerdo para los que hemos jugado, al juego original. Historia, jugabilidad y miedo se mezclan para una experiencia fuera de serie.

Mar 12, 2019This is the father of remakes so far. It even surpasses the original by making use of current technology to transmit elevated horror and gameplay. (FF VII Remake, I hope you're taking notes!)
Pure perfection of old school & new school cocktail. -
Aug 25, 2019Game was good. Some replayability. I like the graphics remake. Story was good,

Sep 6, 2019Excelente juego de inicio fin. Muy rejugable, excelentes gráficos y demás... Posiblemente nominado para GOTY

Mar 22, 2019Capcom did a great job on this game. We all know that the history is "almost" the same as the preview game released for playstation, I said it that way cos they incresead some moments at the NG version.
Residente Evil 2 is a masterpiece thanks to the new sound effects (you can switch to the original) and the new enemie, MR. X, that brings even more horror to the gameplay. You must play it. -
Mar 23, 2019Actually the best remake ever made, capcom has realized a little miracle considering how loved was the original title and how it works perfectly now.
Different times same result.
Great work. -
Mar 24, 2019I love it. Its the best of RE but with amazing graphics. Quite scary. Definitely worth playing.

-
Apr 29, 2019When i was young this game scared the hell out of me but now i know the whole story and with the remake and the new graphics... it still scared the hell out of me..... this is the kind of game that brought back memories and looks fantastic, thank you very much.

May 28, 2019Perfection. 3rd person gameplay and scary atmosphere. Nice graphics, CLassic Costumes and Soundtrack as DLC!!! I just miss some dodge system, but the game still awesome to play.
-
May 29, 2019My favorite horror since psx era. Must have for fans of horror games. Real masterpiece.
-
Jun 7, 2019This game is absolutely mind-blowing. Capcom did a really great job making this game. It really revives the old resident evil games, and makes the series get even creepier. Great character points, great lore points, and most great of all, zombie shooting. Best remake in the series so far.
-
Jun 13, 2019Muito bom o jogo, trouxe de volta para a serie todo o ambiente de terror que tinha se perdido em Resident Evil 5 e 6. Parabéns estamos esperando o remake do 3.
-
Jun 19, 2019This game is just marvelous, especially on hardcore mode. This is a must play game, and I truly enjoy this game more than Resident Evil 4.
-
Jun 22, 2019This game is absolute perfection
Sound,graphics,level design,gameplay,horror
Its all perfectly mixed together
A must play -
Jul 7, 2019One of the best remakes ever, and my best game in this series❤ I played it several times and I am still enjoying it
-
Aug 3, 2019Resident Evil 2 Remake became one of my favourite games of all time. It's utterly terrific. The game is short but is almost perfect in each detail and Capcom must invest in this mechanics for now on. The soundtrack, the environment, the gameplay and the survival horror is BACK! It's definitely 10/10 game and you must play it.

Aug 16, 2019Отличная игра 10/10 Capcom где русская озвучка??? -1 к финальной оценки

Sep 1, 2019Estou amando cada fase do jogo eu sou fan de resident evil e essa reimaginaçao ficou super top amei muito
-
Sep 3, 2019Pedazo de juegazo de principio a fin. Un 10 en jugabilidad, un 10 en banda sonora, un 10 en la historia, el juego en si es un 10.
-
Sep 5, 2019Este juego es impresionante, da mucho miedo, es muy fiel al original, estoy deseando poder jugar a un remake de resident evil 3
-
Jul 8, 2020If Resident Evil 7 hasn't proved to you that the franchise still has a lot to offer in terms of horror. Than the RE2 remake definitely will. With so much replayability, and some of the best graphics and gore I've ever seen in a horror game. This truly deserves to be called best video game remake ever.
-
Sep 10, 2019Un juego a la altura del original, es muy grato volver a jugar este título con los gráficos de ahora. La historia y los cambios realizados son muy acertados ya que la experiencia es la misma. La jugabilidad es simple pero adecuada a la esencia del juego. Es un título que lo disfrutas de inicio a fin.
-
Sep 16, 2019That's The best game I play in this year.This make me feel like Leon and claire.I hope we see more Resident Evil games in next years

Oct 16, 2019might be one of the best horror game ever, story is so so, but horror element surprises are very good.After 1st playthrough speed run is fun to do. Puzzle are very simple and some part of game is frustrating if you dont know what to do
-
Mar 26, 2020Its the best game horror in 2019 and the best remake in the world in playstation 4 and in all platform for resident evil 2 remake
-
Oct 22, 2019I'm a huge RE fan. Been playing since RE1 came out way back when and to see what CAPCOM did to remake this game is a 10 out of 10 no question. This game has 0 issues for me. It's a true gem and GOTY contender imo.
If you have not gotten this game thinking you've already played the original and there's nothing new here you're wrong. Pick this up and see why this game is a 10! -
Oct 25, 2019It's the best RE since the forth one and a survival horror masterpiece. wish capcom keep it in this way
-
Nov 10, 2019Compre el juego de salida, y puedo decir que es sin dudas el mejor juego del año, y de la generación! Sin palabras Resident Evil 2 es una obra maestra en todos los apectos, y a nivel visual en gráficos y detalles está a otra nivel!
-
Jan 1, 2020It was okay I guess you had to of been a fan of the original from back in the day to understand the hype. Though I was really only a fan of re4 everything after that really just feels like a downgrade
-
Apr 6, 2020Игра отличная почти как и оригинал но есть один минус 2 сценарий короткий и одинаковый
-
Apr 10, 2020Very well developed, I would like more differences betwen both stories but doesnt affect un the almost perfect game
-
Apr 10, 2020One of the best if not THE best game of 2019
The only thing wrong in this game is the boss fights -
Apr 21, 2020Un juegazo total, tengo jugando Resident desde hace 16 años y por un segundo perdí la fe en la franquicia hasta que sacaron este juego
-
Apr 22, 2020Near perfect remake in my opinion only improvement i could ask for is little more time making my way to the police station like the first game but cant complain a excellent game
-
Apr 24, 2020Good sound, nice gameplay, interesting, exiting, amazing involvement, I like it
-
May 14, 2020This game is probably the best remake of all time as of now, but that does not change the fact that it is a remake. I am not a fan of survival horror where you can shoot things, I am more stressed about limited inventory space and lack of ammo than the "scary" things in the game. Less enemies and more puzzles or set pieces would probably make for a game I greatly enjoy
-
May 15, 2020My personal favorite game of 2019. The gameplay and graphics/zombie deterioration are gorgeous. This is a must play for any survival horror fan.
-
Jul 10, 2020It’s been a long time since I played a decent horror survival zombie game, this game actually had me on edge and mr X was an absolute nightmare and I was always hoping to not meet him! Solid game with good replay ability
-
Jun 19, 2020Excelentes graficos y excelente reimaginación. Para mi fue lo mejor del 2019.
-
Jun 28, 2020the best re remake than re 3 remake you will expected more than more!!! must buy it
-
Jun 28, 2020Excelente juego, lo único malo fue que los jefes se hacen repetitivos en ambas campañas
-
Jul 3, 2020Excelente!!

Jul 4, 2020Resident Evil 2 remake is amazing and fantastic. Incredible renewal to original with 1998. And plot was amazing and interesting sometimes, so I recommened this game to everyone.
-
Jul 11, 2020This game is so good it set a new standard for future RE games. The only nitpicks I have is the characters should be able to run faster - even for a short period of time - and turn on and off the flashlight at will. Everything else is almost perfect.
-
Jul 12, 2020Such an amazing game! Would definitely recommend going out and buying it right now

Jan 25, 2021Pure horror classic! To start to the end I was in shock how this remake made history in video games CONGRAT. CAPCOM!!!
-
Sep 26, 2020Resident evil 2 remake would’ve been a 10/10 if the scenarios made since, but it’s still a great game and should’ve won game of the year in 2019.

Nov 21, 2020One of the best remakes of games ever made, the game brings new details to the plot giving more cohesion to events. Gameplay as well as all the dynamics and graphics of the game are accurate. Some elements of the classic game were missing. I felt that there was a lack of interaction between the protagonists.

Конечно же мастплей! Даже не задумываясь. Хотя по сравнению с седьмой частью, этой не удалось меня сильно затянуть. Но это не значит, что вам стоит проходить мимо. Кроме того, игра действительно СТРАШНАЯ -
Sep 2, 2022Great remake of the original sadly almost no improvements on the story structure other than better cutscenes and voice acting.
-
Feb 23, 2019Thanks reviewers for wasting my 60$.
Graphics are horrible on ps4 pro.
Only thing you do is trying to get headshots.
You will end finding solutions to puzzles online as it is so boring going trough every single peace of paper laying around. Zzzzzzzzzzz -
Jan 29, 2019what a amazing game!! it is very fun!! and scary!! Please do remake for RE 3.
-
Nov 24, 2019This is a great remake. Capcom is setting a new high standard for remakes. They perfected the spooky atmosphere. I usually don't care about visuals but the graphics are incredible, too.

May 2, 2020Great game! I went back to play it after the HORRIBLE RE3 Remake. This is the amount of content we should have for $60, not a 5-hour campaign with a repeated boss fight.
-
Jan 31, 2019The first playthrough was great, but the Tyrant in the 2nd playthrough is just too damn annoying. The game forces you to run away and wait for him to pass about a trillion times and it gets super repetitive
-

Nov 15, 2019This game is short. Way too short and very slow. If you could run faster or non stop then you would be able to complete it in 5 hours. It doesn't last more than 10 or 11 hours if you are slow and exploring everything like me. Not worth the price. Get it cheap if you can and I would recommend Resident Evil 7 over this. It's much better.

Jan 27, 2019Well done Capcom. This is what we want!!
Great graphics, 60FPS on PS4 Pro, addicting gameplay, the sound is amazing and the deluxe edition lets you switch the music to the original RE2 soundtrack!!
Playing on PS4 Pro but I will also buy this game for PC!! You deserve every support for this masterpiece Capcom! -

Apr 28, 2020It is truly rare that a legendary game gets such a deserving complete remake that is outstanding and remarkable. From start to finish it grips you and throws you around but you keep strafing and shooting your way through the RE world. Everyone who loves zombies and gore should play this!

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.
