Reviews

Overall, the quality of Resident Evil 2 Remake is of the highest caliber. The frights and jump scare’s you will experience will make you want to run and hide. The villains of the game are more frightening than ever and you will feel it when you see things for the first time

Fashion sense aside, the game is an absolute must-play for any horror fan. A final note for those curious, yes once you beat the game as one character you can immediately follow up with the perspective of the other to experience the other side of things.
