    The game does a great job in welcoming new and veteran players of the RE series. It looks and plays fantastic, voice acting is on point and the sound is really good as well. I was sold the moment I tried the demo. Thank You!

    Probably one of the most anticipated games this year. I pre-ordered this game last year and it was delivered in excellent condition, given that it was through USPS. The gameplay is excellent and the atmosphere is very creepy.

    If your a veteran to the series start the game off on hardcore mode. The atmosphere is absolutely amazing and will definitely make you jump at times with surprises. Playing at night with the lights off is highly recommended.

    Everything good about Resident Evil 2 is back, the story, the ideas of puzzles and gameplay. Gone are the bad voice acting, tank controls, poor gun aiming, replace and upgraded with modern gameplay.

    What can I say about this game that hasn't already been said in the many glowing reviews given to it by the various game media outlets? That the amazing graphics make the Raccoon City PD look more alive than ever? That the new enhancements to the classic game make it not only a great remake but a fantastic game overall? Or perhaps that the vast amount of post game content, which is provided free of charge might I add, make it an extremely great value? If you have half a brain then, much like me, you're already salivating at the mouth with an intense desire to sink your teeth into this game. So go out there right now and make the purchase. You won't regret it.

    Capcom has done an amazing job in rebooting Resident Evil 2. The game looks absolutely stunning. I grew up playing the original Resident Evil games and this one definitely worth owning.

    I’m a die hard fan of the first 3 resident evil games and this by far is one of my favorite with updated graphics and controls. What a great remake of a classic game.

    I've been a huge fan of the Resident Evil series, minus the movies, since the release of RE1 on the original PlayStation. The main reason I ever got the PSVR was because of none other than the announcement of Resident EVil 7 back then so when news broke out of a remake of Resident Evil 2 I was beyond ecstatic and when that first trailer dropped during the E3 2018 conference I think my entire neighborhood heard me. The game has been incredible as I'm still playing the Leon campaign and I can't express the gratitude and fear this game has brought. I look forward and hope for more remakes of the series.

    I played this when it originally came out in 1998 and it was one of my favorites from my childhood. They did an amazing job with this remake, changing it enough to make it a new experience (and not just a retread with better graphics) but familiar enough that it hits all those nostalgia notes. I have some issues with the way the second run worked (some things happening exactly the same across both stories even though they are supposed to be happening at the same time), but thats a minor niggle that didnt prevent my enjoyment, just bugged me a bit. Get this game if you liked the original

    This is what a remake is supposed to look like and play like! Was always a fan of this series and glad they remade part 2 because it was even better than part 1!
