Resident Evil 2 2019 recently released and it has been a smash hit. With 3 million copies shipped and over 1800 years worth of play time, a lot of gamers are enjoying Capcom's latest survival-horror title. However, how does it compare to The Evil Within 2, the franchise started by the director of the very first Resident Evil Shinji Mikami? Does The Evil Within 2 toppled Resident Evil 2 2019 or did Capcom's latest game showcase why Resident Evil is known as the king of survival-horror?
Capcom has announced and released the original Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 on Steam.
Capcom recently released Resident Evil Requiem, and it's been so successful that it's seemingly dragging along every other Resi game with it.
That's certainly true in the UK; the latest physical retail charts have come in, and the top 10 includes five Resident Evil games across all platforms.
This month, unleash brutal finishers in the reimagined Mortal Kombat 1, swing through Marvel’s New York skyline as the iconic web-slinger in Marvel’s Spider-Man, or gear up to repel swarming alien forces in Earth Defense Force 6. All these titles and more are available in August’s PlayStation Plus Game Catalog lineup. That includes Sword of the Sea, which releases day one into Game Catalog. Meanwhile, Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis bring retro survival horror to PlayStation Plus Premium. All titles will be available to play on August 19*.
Just got back to TEW 2 again and finished it on Akumu difficulty yesterday since they added it in an update recently. Took me 21 hours, what an awesome game. I haven't picked up Resi 2 yet but will do soon. All I can say is its a great time to be a survival horror fan. Would definitely recommend picking up Resi 7/TEW 1,2 and Alien Isolation if you are craving some good horrific time.
Both games are extremely well done. Personally I gotta give the edge to Resident Evil 2. It just does everything so perfectly and it truly feels like a horror/survival game. Having tight narrow hallways with zombies blocking your path being forced to take them down or stagger them to proceed. Also with Mr. X stomping around he constantly keeps you on your toes when around and it's so nerve wrecking.
I also personally love the atmosphere as it had this dark dreary feeling to it where as with TEW2 it was more open hub-like areas. It was very easy to run away from enemies and the stealth is honestly a bit broken. There wasn't as much tension going around at times. The thing I do prefer about TEW2 is the upgrade system as you feel like you get stronger as you level up your abilities and arsenal (though I'm a bit biased on that part as I always loved having some kind of upgrade system in games).
Both games are excellent in my eyes but I do prefer Re2 over TEW2.
Both are amazing,both have great atmosphere.i guess being a new game evil with 2 have better game play and world design.In terms of sound design and visual RE 2 wins.Both games are coming from re devs anyways.
Both are good but what i loved about TEW2 is that you can Stealth Kill enemies even if you're low on Ammo. All you can do in RE2 is shot once and runaway.
Hunk is all need to say.
