Why tonight?

  • It goes hard on violence and frights — not a wind-down.
  • Reviewed better than most games in the catalogue.

The story

Resident Evil 2 is a remake of 1998's Resident Evil 2. The game was not developed with the intent of improving the original, but rather a reimagining of the original story with redesigned maps, characters and story elements. Gameplay mechanics are more similar to Resident Evil 7: Biohazard though with the use of an over-the-shoulder camera.
