Resident Evil 2: 9 Things To Look Forward To
1. "It's Sheer Perfection. No One Will Ever Take You Away From Me."
It's best to go into this game with a fresh mind and perspective.
Whilst the most hardcore of fans are going to be slightly jaded at the changes and modernising of certain elements, newcomers are going to be experiencing the awe of what is essentially a brand new game to them.
Fans of the original are going to be trying to put the references together, or hopefully have their expectations as to what happens next either fulfilled or replaced.
Much like Resident Evil 7 breathed new life into the franchise back in 2017, as fans were tiring of the action-focused gameplay, this reinvention should have the same effect.
Capcom knew they were going to be polarizing when this was announced, and have stuck with the conviction to make the game we'll be devouring when January 25th rolls round.
Gorgeous visuals, a shift in combat and exploration, and some tense gameplay to take back the crown from the likes of the original Dead Space, the Resident Evil 2 Remake (or Reimagining) is looking to be as praised as the original was, all 21 years ago.
