After its incredibly strong showing during its E3 reveal, the hype momentum for Resident Evil 2 Remake continues to soar, with new gameplay at Gamescom revealing the first footage of Claire Redfield in action.

The gameplay sees Claire, who bears a considerable resemblance to actress Rebecca Ferguson, meeting Sherry Birkin for the first time and battling a mutated William Birkin in a boss fight. The footage then ends with Claire and Sherry coming across the wayward Chief Brian Irons.

Aside from Claire's slightly cringe-worthy in-game quips, RE2 Remake continues to look absolutely spectacular, and is sure to get 2019 off to a roaring start when it releases for PC, PS4 and Xbox One on January 25.
