    A survival horror masterpiece!!

    Why can I only give this 10 stars? I would give it 100 if I could!

    Well done to Capcom, this is how a remake should be done! Resident Evil was the first game I ever played and RE2 was the best game in the entire series for me. The original game was stunning for its time but this remake came at the perfect time and boy did Capcom go all out. Resident Evil 2 remake is a survival horror masterpiece.

    The sense of nostalgia is definitely there as it brings back all of the great memories from the original, and sets an unbelievably high standard for video game remakes. The attention to detail that the creators have put into this game is stunning and gives you a real sense of being scared and Resident Evil 2 not only looks great, it plays well, and it forces you into a series of dark encounters that are a total rush.

    This is definitely not a game for the faint hearted but a game everyone should own. A stunningly beautiful game and definitely a contender for GOTY!!

    21 Years...We'll worth the wait!

    Words cannot describe how much this game was worth the wait. Hats off and a standing ovation to the creators and staff of this game! Absolutely out of this world! WHAT A GAME!! Totally lives up to the original. Overwhelmed with the added nostalgia. Made me proud to be a Resident Evil fan for 23+ years. Deserves lots of awards! Well done!

    More than a simple remake: it's one of gaming's best reimaginings.

    Resident Evil 2 is a remake of the original 1998 sequel to Resident Evil: the game that started it all back in 1996; and what a legacy the franchise has left for gamers all around the world. This rendition of Resident Evil 2 is more than just a graphical update of an older game: it brings a classic into the modern era of next-gen gaming with newly refined controls, re-written script, photo-realistic graphics and edge-of-your-seat horror taken to the next level.

    Capcom has brought a new classic into the world: re-infusing an already great game with fantastic gameplay upgrades and unparalleled tension and bringing it all into the 21st century.

    Resident evil at it's best

    What an amazing survival horror game, i think it's just as good as re4 if not better, the atmosphere, music, characters and it actually feels like a resident evil game and it has zombies unlike 7, it doesn't focus on over the top action unlike 5 and 6, the franchise never really recovered post RE4 and to me RE2R is the only game that goes that far when it comes to the best in the series and it really improved on the original. Also use the original soundtrack, it makes the game way more terrifying than it already is.

    10/10 a lot of people will say 7 but to me this was the true return to form for the series and it's easily the best survival horror game of the 8th generation.

    • Trivia
      A fan-remake of Resident Evil 2 (1998) called "Resident Evil 2: Reborn" was in the works, which was built on the Unreal Engine 4. The release was planned for late 2015 and would have been available as a free download. However, in August 2015, Capcom politely asked the developers to cancel the project, as an official remake was in the works. After the team agreed to cancel the fan-project, Capcom invited them to the studio so they could add their own input on the remake.
