To me, it's more of an original game that was inspired by the 1998 version as a lot has been changed, upgraded, and improved. However, I have had a chance to watch some gameplay footage of the original game on YouTube to get a better understanding of its history and I've determined that it's not entirely fair to even refer to this new version of Resident Evil 2 as a remake. As I got older, I never bothered to go back and check it out due to the aged mechanics and the vast amounts of newer games I was interested in playing.

I was only 12 when the game released and I wasn't allowed to play violent games nor was I all that interested in them. I'll be honest I've never actually played the original Resident Evil 2. │ Remember to support your favourite streamers and content creators for all the entertainment that they provide. However, none of their revivals have received nearly as much care as this reimagining of Resident Evil 2.

Resident Evil 2 is also available for PS5 and Xbox OneĬapcom has been rather eager to re-release their older games on this current generation of consoles. Reviewed by Tyler Hall playing a PS4 on January 22, 2019
