Resident Evil 2 Dev Explains Why They Aren’t Calling It A ‘Remake’

Adding “remake” somewhere in the title is a practice that is usually followed by most developers (Capcom themselves did it when they remade the original Resident Evil), so it’s noteworthy that the same is not being done with this game.

So, it's Resident Evil 2 but not really Resident Evil 2, it just shares a lot with 2 but isn't actually another 2. It follows the same story arc of 2 but isn't similar enough to be 2. Thanks, that's cleared my head for the day.

Who gaf what they are calling RE2... gimme... NOW

I hope its plenty successful so maybe we get the same re7 engine treatment for 0-4 and cvx! Oh my god... nerding out. 1, 3, 4, or cvx in re7 engine = mind blown.

Seriously use these remakes as your soft boot with classic RE while keeping main original games as first person

Yes! I actually really enjoyed 1st person in RE7 where i thought i was going to totally hate it 🤔

Did you play RE7 using SONY VR? I plan on buying the SONY VR DOOM bundle and RE7 next holiday season during some crazy good sale .

30fps sucks. Especially on an OLED.
