Resident Evil 2 Reviews
Resident Evil 2 is a fantastic survival horror experience that has a brilliant world and puzzle design and even found new ways to scare me. There is a lot to experience in the game and will be fun to replay for years to come. This is how all video game remakes should be treated. It stays true to what made the original so great but wasn’t afraid to change aspects of the game to keep things fresh for veteran players and bring the game into the modern age and a real contender for one of the best games this year.
Resident Evil 2 Remake is not only a must-have for all of the players that were not able to enjoy the original game back in the day, but it is also a homage to the players that did manage to play it.

Resident Evil 2 is the best nostalgia operation and the most apt relaunch of a franchise that was starting to stagnate before the experimental seventh chapter. Showing that it has understood its duality, made of the echo that speaks to the players of the 90s and of the more modern one with an action soul, Capcom gives new life to Raccoon City.

Resident Evil 2 is an impressive remake; extremely faithful to the original 1998 game, yet more accesible. An authentic survival horror game that brings back the best moments we spent with the Capcom franchise.

All in all, Resident Evil 2 is an excellent remake that modernizes the classic 1998 video game and makes it playable by today's standards. Not only does the game pay homage to the original game, but it also offers something fresh for both new and old fans of the franchise. This is easily an early 2019 ‘Game of the Year' candidate.
I can think of Resident Evil 2 Remake as a completely different game from the original game, which is really how the game offers a new camera perspective and different from the original with different audio representation and performance and different monsters, but in the same original story template, I enjoyed very much with this game that brought me back to the series and made me intend to experience the other parts I had missed in the past years and made me look back on Capcom's return to the right path with its latest games.

Resident Evil 2 is the perfect remake. Everything, from the re-design of levels to the graphics, is a huge step forward. Capcom is no longer confused about the series; it is the old and beloved company we used to know.

Now THIS is how you remake a classic. Resident Evil 2 expertly reanimates the horrifying atmosphere and moments of extreme tension that made the original so revered.
Resident Evil 2 successfully updates the survival-horror classic for modern consoles, delivering one of the scariest games of the entire generation in the process.
A fantastic big budget remake of one of Resident Evil’s most popular entries, that manages to look state-of-the-art but in terms of gameplay finds a perfect balance of old and new.
Capcom's reimagining of Resident Evil 2 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One embraces its past in a fresh, exciting way.
The sense of fear and terror when playing Resident Evil 2 never leaves you. It's unlike anything else I've encountered in a Resident Evil game previously. I'm just going to go ahead and call it: Resident Evil 2 is the best Resident Evil game in the franchise and represents a series and developer at its peak. Don't be distracted by the pretty graphics and gore, Resident Evil 2 is straight-up dangerous.
My complaints about the Resident Evil 2 remaster are minimal. An argument could be made that Capcom could have done more, but the spirit of the original has been preserved and in many cases, enhanced. I hope every legacy game in the series gets this loving treatment, as I'll probably be playing them for the rest of my life.
This Resident Evil 2 remake is a phenomenal update of a classic game. It combines the best of the original's narrative and puzzles with the ammo crafting of Resident Evil 3 and the action gameplay of Resident Evil 4 to create a hybrid that still manages to feel like classic Resi.
You’ll also come across quite a few surprises in terms of boss encounters and scenes that definitely weren’t in the original game that I won’t spoil here, but suffice it to say, you’ll be left with your jaw hanging open. Unfortunately, the game doesn’t take the opportunity to flesh out or expand on some of the more ambiguous parts of the Resident Evil lore, which I would have liked to see, but given that it does deliver with new content all its own, that’s not a huge issue.
A classic of the survival horror genre re-built for the modern age. This is how a remake should always be.
