Resident Evil 2 News

I've said it before: Resident Evil 3 Remake is one of the most underrated games in the entire series. Bundle that together with RE Village, RE7, the remake of Resident Evil 2, and dozens of other hits from Capcom's defining survival horror series, and you've got yourself one of the best batches of classic and modern scare-'em-ups available today. We're still waiting on Code Veronica Remake, or maybe the full Resident Evil 9, but with the reimagined version of RE4 behind us, it's a good opportunity to either round out your collection or explore the rest of the Resi world for the first time. Right now, you can get 11 Resident Evil games, covering the entire series chronology, for less than $60.

I've completed Resident Evil 2 probaby 100 times, and that's not an exaggeration. Some years ago, I used to speedrun it, which meant playing the entire Leon A scenario back to back maybe twice or three times a day. From the Raccoon City streets to the RPD building, the narrow sewers and the Umbrella lab, I feel like I know every inch of Capcom's classic survival horror game by heart. I like RE2 Remake, but the original will always be the best. With that in mind, and rumors whirling about both Resident Evil 9 and a possible remake of Code Veronica, if you want to revisit Resident Evil 2 now it's on GOG, a new, unofficial HD remaster mod is perfect for bringing layers of extra detail to one of the all-time greats.

We're still waiting for confirmation on what's next for Resident Evil, be it a fully fledged RE9, a Code Veronica remake, or maybe a fresh version of the hard-to-love Resident Evil Zero. Nevertheless, the Capcom survival horror is ticking over thanks to a vital re-release of one of the greatest games in the entire series, Resident Evil 2. RE2 Remake is a superlative reimagining of the fixed-camera classic, but the 1998 original is scarier, more atmospheric, and a vital part of videogame history. It also brought us Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield for the first time, as well as the iconic Raccoon City police station. Hard to access on PC in the modern era, finally, as of today, buying and playing RE2 is extremely simple.
