The genre-defining masterpiece Resident Evil 2 returns, completely rebuilt from
the ground up for a deeper narrative experience. Using Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine,
Resident Evil 2 offers a fresh take on the classic survival horror saga with
breathtakingly realistic visuals, heart-poundingly immersive audio, a new
over-the-shoulder camera, and modernized controls on top of gameplay modes from the
original game. The nightmares return reimagined for the PlayStation®4, Xbox One and
Windows PC on January 25, 2019. In Resident Evil 2, the classic action, tense
exploration, and puzzle solving gameplay that defined the Resident Evil series returns.
Players join rookie police officer Leon Kennedy and college student Claire Redfield, who
are thrust together by a disastrous outbreak in Raccoon City that transformed its
population into deadly zombies. Both Leon and Claire have their own separate playable
campaigns, allowing players to see the story from both characters’ perspectives. The
fate of these two fan favorite characters is in players hands as they work together to
survive and get to the bottom of what is behind the terrifying attack on the city. Will
they make it out alive?
