    What can I say? Take the RE2 set up and play it like RE4. What's not to love?
    Ammo is scarce, making every time you step out of a save room daunting. Even standard zombies are dangerous. But it never seems cheap. And it's scary as hell.
    There's some nitpicks, but it's an excellent experience overall.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a new player who did not play the original, this game is delightful. In terms of graphics and gameplay, everything is great. The music and atmosphere is great. After completing the game 2 times (that’s how much it needs to be completed to complete the plot), I thought it was 10/10, but the plot had serious failures, because You didn’t play a parallel story, but an alternative one. Be prepared for this. (It didn’t affect my impression, but still). Before my review, I found the review in a negative way, and in particular, I was ready to agree with it. Because I didn’t play the original, I didn’t know that if you took a bag and a unique weapon for Leon in the first passage, then in Clair 2, they would not be there. Thus it can be said that
    Capcom was tricked. But despite this, this is a great remake and to feel it, put hardcore :) My rating is 9/10. Enjoy the game)    … Expand

    JUGABILIDAD. Jugablemente este título es casi perfecto y mejora por mucho al original.

    HISTORIA. La historia es un poco peor que en el original ya que suprimen el escenario B a favor del escenario 2. Además siguen las incoherencias del original.

    DIVERSIÓN. La diversión en este juego empieza con el primer zombie al que enfrentas, manteniéndose hasta el final.

    GRÁFICOS. El juego luce espectacular y muy fluido (60fps)

    SONIDO. La banda sonora del original era perfecta. En este juego han decidido quitar la música para poner sonidos y ruidos ambientales. El doblaje al español es bastante bueno.

    DURACIÓN. La primera partida te puede durar 10h, pero estas aumentan con los distintos modos de juego que tiene y su gran rejugabilidad.

    La conclusión es que este re2 remake es una obra maestra y juegazo que supera al original menos en la historia. Muy recomendado. Mi GOTY 2019, antes de probar Death Stranding.

    Capcom returns to make another magnificent remake of resident evil, this time, the second installment of the saga. If you played the original, you will enjoy it more, but also the new players will have a great time playing this game. Then I will analyze the game in all its sections.

    Playability Playably this title is almost perfect and greatly improves the original.

    HISTORY. The story is a bit worse than in the original since they suppress scenario B in favor of scenario 2. They also follow the inconsistencies of the original.

    FUN. The fun in this game starts with the first zombie you face, staying until the end.

    GRAPHICS. The game looks spectacular and very fluid (60fps)

    SOUND. The original soundtrack was perfect. In this game they have decided to remove the music to put sounds and ambient noises. Spanish dubbing is pretty good.

    DURATION. The first game can last 10h, but these increase with the different game modes it has and its great playability.

    The conclusion is that this re2 remake is a masterpiece and great game that surpasses the original less in history. Highly recommended. My GOTY 2019, before trying Death Stranding.    … Expand

Let me also add that, if Capcom had included the original dynamic of the A-B scenario's(zapping) and optional first person camera this would have been the perfect Resident Evil game.

    immersive, challenging, exciting, mysterious... A terrifying experience waiting to be enjoyed.
    A full playthrough will leave you with a sense of achievement, and its duration felt just right to me (not too short or long).

    everything is top notch, the ambient, the audio, the mechanics. I was surprised that almost all the game I was lacking health, ammunition, etc ... but everything was doable, it felt like a TRUE survival horror not cheap in any way.

    That's how a remastered should be done. One of the best horror games to date. Smooth gameplay, feels oldschool but is unique in it's own way. Must Play for every Resident Evil or horror genre fan.

    It is frustrating, can be monotonous, and adds very little to the experience of the original. but it also takes the core gameplay, which is very much a game of navigating maps, memorizing locations, figuring out maps and managing resources, and makes it as good as you remembered the original to be, but if you go back now and play the original you are shocked that it once impressed you.

    The game is a master peace. Capcom has exceeded expectations and is possibly there best game to date. The events are slightly different to the original, but I'm glad it isn't. It's absolutely terrifying, especially wondering the gloomy, dark corridors of the Raccoon City Police Department.

    The story could be better and the different scenarios don't differ enough but the game is extremely intense and fun which more than makes up for it. 98/100

    Leon and Claire quickly became my two favorite characters in the series. And even now, they still remain my top two.

    The puzzles were good, but I felt like they got a little drawn out towards the end of the game. Yet I still really enjoyed the game. Adding Mister X, hunting you down the entire game, most definitely added a huge kick to the horror aspect to the game. Or at least, really built up a lot of the suspense.    … Expand

    This is a concrete evidence that Capcom has climbed it's ways to the golden age they once had, from the disaster of Resident Evil 6 to the "rise from ashes" of Resident Evil 7 to this. Capcom definitely started to make many kickass games and became one of my favorite AAA company, good job Cappy!

    Excellent game, one of the best of the Resident Evil series. They managed to make this remake enjoyable for both new players and fans of the original. The small tweaks on the story and gameplay were perfectly executed. It's a game where you just want to play it several times.

    Juegazo de calidad, desde el primer trailer dio buenas vibras y el juego es muy bueno tanto en duracion como en su genero, tiene fallitos pero son insignificantes aunque como remake es brutal y lo que se a recortado son cosas minimas, en fin un juegazo de lujo.

Porem vale ressaltar que segundo a Capcom este jogo não é um remake e sim uma reimaginação o que justifica algumas mudanças no seu enredo, o que não diminui o jogo em nada.

    Resident Evil 2 is a classic horror game in which the atmosphere is crucial in combination with the puzzles of your environment.

The structure of the game really gives you the feeling that you are in control of your discoveries. Everything has been carefully mapped out to discover what it takes to make progress. In addition, it is nice that jumpscares are not used obsessively because it is not necessary to make the gamer feel scared. A weak point of the game's design is the two-part story. Where you expect that you can discover a completely new area with the second main character, this turns out not to be the case. You'll have to go through the same area (you've already completed with your first character) with minor tweaks here and there. At the start of your second character's story, your first play through seems to be totally forgotten. Yet, both story are needed to understand the full picture.

    Nevertheless, this is a game that will leave you on the edge of your seat while you lose track of time!

    Pros:
    - Atmosphere - Zombies
    - Story
    - Puzzles of the environment - Dualsense features

    Cons:
    - Two-part story that have a lot of overlap and yet are not connected as a whole    … Expand

    The atmosphere of horror is overwhelming and proves that in 2019 there is a place for a Resident-like story in which the modern visuals heighten and not lessen the fear. It’s the best Resident Evil ever. [03/2019, p.40]

    Resident Evil 2 is a wonderful recreation of a believed original that, not only recaptures the glory of that game, but also improves upon it from a visual and gameplay standpoint. All in all, don’t miss out on this one.
