Capcom has released a brand new trailer for Resident Evil 2 Remake to draw some excitement around some familiar faces. This includes of course Ada Wong along with Annette Birkin and Chief Officer Brian Irons. A handful of screenshots were also revealed.
The new story trailer for Resident Evil 2 Remake that was shown at Tokyo Game Show gives us further glimpse at Clair Redfield and Leon Kennedy’s Stories.
A near-fatal accident sends Claire and Leon down different paths, forcing both characters to navigate the dangers of Raccoon City, the Police Department, and beyond. If they want to live through the nightmare that begins to unfold in front of them, they’ll need to put their survival skills to the ultimate test amidst a city filled with terrifying creatures, both human and otherwise.
Clair and Leon, who are separate and must fight and survive through Raccoon City, While meeting different characters and horrifying creatures on the way. Take a look at the trailer below.
As announced previously over at Capcom’s blog, the new remake gets rid of the original games’ zapping system for its campaigns. The campaigns are now unique to Claire and Leon. There are also many screenshots released in the blog, so make sure to get a look at them.
A little history for RE2 newcomers before we dive into things: The original Resident Evil 2 introduced a system known as “zapping” to provide an “A” story and a “B” story – two separate paths through the game that had the same major story elements for each character, but changed certain details, events, and access to items depending on which character you played as first. While this remake of Resident Evil 2 no longer uses “zapping” to tell each character’s tale, it stays true to the original by telling a unique story for each character, with both main campaigns providing a compelling point of view to provide a modern take on the story of Resident Evil 2.
Resident Evil 2 Remake will launch on January 25, 2019 for the Playstation 4, Xbox One and PC. You can also pre order the game right now for all platforms:
