We've finally got some more news (including a release date!!) for the Resident Evil 2 remake. I mean, remaster. Don't call it a remake; Capcom forbids it!
We first got wind of this way back in 2015, and the news since then has been slower than cold molasses, but things have been heating up in a big way since E3. After getting our first taste of the gameplay and settings (see video below), we now know that the title is going to release on January 25, 2019 and there are already pre-order options for those of you who can't wait to cough up your money.
The pre-orders come in two flavors, the regular game and a deluxe option, which includes the following extras and some tasty DLC.
Here's what you get with the deluxe pre-order version:
- Deluxe Weapon: 'Samurai Edge - Chris Model'
- Deluxe Weapon: 'Samurai Edge - Jill Model'
- Deluxe Weapon: 'Samurai Edge - Albert Model'
- Resident Evil 2 Special Theme (PS4)
- Leon Costume: 'Arklay Sheriff'
- Leon Costume: 'Noir'
- Claire Costume: 'Military'
- Claire Costume: 'Noir'
- Claire Costume: 'Elza Walker'
- 'Original Ver.' Soundtrack Swap
Check out the trailer below to get yourself a taste of the new style.
