Resident Evil 2 Post Launch content detailed

Resident Evil 2 Post Launch content detailed

Capcom announced today that Resident Evil 2 will be receiving a hefty amount of post-launch content when the game releases this Friday, January 25.

During the Japanese pre-launch live stream today, Capcom announced that fans of the classic Resident Evil 2 will be receiving costumes for both Leon and Claire. Their outfits from the classic Resident Evil 2 will be given as a bonus free of charge starting March 22. Those who purchase the Resident Evil 2 original design Japanese PlayStation Card will be the one getting the bonuses.

In addition to the costume, The Ghost Survivors has also been announced for Resident Evil 2. It’s pretty much a new game mode that will be released as a free update. The new mode will allow players to experience a “What if” situation side story where three sub-characters (the mayor’s daughter, Robert Kendo, and a mysterious U.S.S. memberR) did not suffer at the hands of misfortune. Fans can look forward to new type of enemies in this new mode.

Here’s an overview of the game, via Capcom:

The genre-defining masterpiece Resident Evil 2 returns, completely rebuilt from the ground up for a deeper narrative experience. Using Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine, Resident Evil 2 offers a fresh take on the classic survival horror saga with breathtakingly realistic visuals, heart-pounding immersive audio, a new over-the-shoulder camera, and modernized controls on top of gameplay modes from the original game.

In Resident Evil 2, the classic action, tense exploration, and puzzle solving gameplay that defined the Resident Evil series returns. Players join rookie police officer Leon Kennedy and college student Claire Redfield, who are thrust together by a disastrous outbreak in Raccoon City that transformed its population into deadly zombies. Both Leon and Claire have their own separate playable campaigns, allowing players to see the story from both characters’ perspectives. The fate of these two fan favorite characters is in players hands as they work together to survive and get to the bottom of what is behind the terrifying attack on the city. Will they make it out alive?

  • A spine-chilling reimagining of a horror classic – Based on the original release in 1998, the new game has been completely rebuilt from the ground up for a deeper narrative experience.
  • A whole new perspective – New over-the-shoulder camera mode and modernized control scheme creates a more modern take on the survival horror experience and offers players a trip down memory lane with the original gameplay modes from the 1998 release.
  • Terrifyingly realistic visuals – Built on Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine, Resident Evil 2 delivers breathtakingly photorealistic visuals whilst stunning lighting creates an up-close, intense and atmospheric experience as players roam the corridors of the Raccoon City Police Department (RPD).
  • Face the grotesque hordes – Zombies are brought to life with a horrifyingly realistic wet gore effect as they react in real time taking instant visible damage, making every bullet count.
  • Iconic series defining gameplay – Engage in frenzied combat with enemies, explore dark menacing corridors, solve puzzles to access areas and collect and use items discovered around the environment in a terrifying constant fight for survival.
  • See favorite characters in a whole new light – Join rookie police officer Leon S. Kennedy on his first day in the job and college student Claire Redfield, who is searching for her brother amidst a terrifying zombie epidemic.
  • Step into the rookie shoes of both heroes – Enjoy separately playable campaigns for both Leon and Claire, allowing players to see the story from both characters’ perspective.

Resident Evil 2 will be available this Friday, January 25 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Check back with us later this week for our coverage.
