Best Upcoming PS4 Games For January 2019
Resident Evil 2
For years and years, Resident Evil fans have been begging Capcom for a remake of Resident Evil 2, in the vein of the remake of the original game. Well, what we’re getting is even better, as Capcom has completely overhauled every aspect of Resident Evil 2, for a remake that practically feels like a new entry.
Resident Evil 2 is played from an over-the-shoulder perspective, just like Resident Evil 4, and Capcom has strove to make the game more modern and accessible. Even with these changes, however, there’s still a huge emphasis on survival horror. Ammo is incredibly scarce, and the zombies in Resident Evil 2 feel like hulking creatures instead of hordes you can plow through.
Also unlike the original, Resident Evil 2 blends together the stories of Leon and Claire into one, instead of separating them into two different campaigns. Certain story elements and characters have been expanded upon, providing more reasons for longtime fans to jump back in.
Resident Evil 2 is a bold remake, and one of the most gorgeous games we’ve ever seen on modern consoles. Whether you’re a returning fan or a new one, it looks like this could be one of those definitive survival horror experiences.
