About game

"Resident Evil 2," originally released in 1998 and remade in 2019, is a survival horror video game developed and published by Capcom. The game is set in Raccoon City, a fictional location that has been devastated by a viral outbreak, transforming the population into flesh-eating zombies and other monstrous creatures. Players can choose between two main characters, Leon S. Kennedy, a rookie police officer, and Claire Redfield, a college student searching for her brother. Each character has a distinct storyline and set of encounters, ultimately leading them to uncover the horrifying truth behind the Umbrella Corporation's sinister experiments. The gameplay combines meticulous exploration of the intricately designed environments, puzzle-solving, and combat against various enemies. Players must manage their limited resources, find weapons and health items, and navigate a series of interconnected locations, including the Raccoon City Police Department and the underground laboratory. The game employs a fixed camera perspective that enhances the atmosphere of suspense and dread. With its rich narrative, improved graphics, and updated mechanics, the 2019 remake garnered critical acclaim for successfully revitalizing the classic while preserving the essence that made the original a landmark title in the survival horror genre. The haunting sound design and immersive visuals further draw players into a gripping and terrifying experience as they navigate the ruins of a city overrun by the undead.
