Critic Reviews
Resident Evil 2 Review
Resident Evil 2 might be one of the most accomplished remakes of the generation. A number of mechanics have been updated and introduced in order to bring the game into the modern era, but this is still very much the classic experience you remember – inventory management, limited ammunition, and all. Capcom has lovingly recreated every historic location and moment you remember from 1998, and you owe it to yourself to witness that spectacle first-hand.

100%This stunning remake revives a horror classic
Twenty years after its initial release Capcom’s rebuilt Resident Evil 2 from scratch—and it’s not just a fantastic remake, it’s undoubtedly one of the year’s best horror games.
