About Resident Evil 2

Resident Evil 2 is a full remake of the 1998 survival horror classic, developed by Capcom. This reimagined entry places players in a Raccoon City overrun by a deadly virus, transforming its population into zombies. Players engage in classic action, tense exploration, and puzzle solving, navigating dark corridors and collecting items for survival. The experience shifts to a new over-the-shoulder camera and modernized controls, allowing players to embody rookie police officer Leon Kennedy or college student Claire Redfield through separate, playable campaigns.

Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine powers Resident Evil 2, delivering photorealistic visuals and immersive audio that intensify the horror. Zombies react with a realistic wet gore effect, showing instant visible damage from every shot fired, emphasizing bullet economy. The game retains the original gameplay modes from its 1998 release, blending nostalgic design with contemporary presentation. This is a complete rebuild of a foundational survival horror title.
