It retains the series’ core staples while introducing forward-thinking gameplay innovations, making it a smart, visceral horror experience, brimming with finesse and ambition. Simply put, this is the best it has ever felt to play a traditional Resident Evil game. Sure, those visuals definitely make a world of difference, but it’s the polished rekindling of Resident Evil 2’s tense exploration, frantic combat, challenging resource management, and effective scares that transform this from a retrospective love-letter to a progressive next step for the franchise. Granted, it features the same storyline, characters and zombie-infested corridors of its 1998 ancestor, but alongside its familiar charms comes a refined sleekness that the franchise had been sorely lacking for years. Despite the fact it’s a remake, Capcom’s glorious revisiting of Resident Evil 2 feels more like a game of new beginnings than one of nostalgia.
