This just keeps getting better and better. I can't believe I'm getting swept up in the hype along with everyone else. It's embarrassing. I am always railing against remakes and reboots, but this just looks like it is going to be fantastic. Every new piece of footage I get has me giggling like a school-girl and getting all nostalgic. This story trailer just makes the game look like it's going to be so much fun, and I feel like I've already played this game and been blown away by it.
I'm a bit of an early RE fanboy, ok? Except for RE6. And to some degree 5. And Code Veronica. And zero, I guess. Shut up, alright?
Resident Evil 2 is set two months after RE1, and Racoon City is all kinds of jacked up, with the T-virus effing everyone is the A and turning them zombified. Enter Leon, rookie with something to prove and Claire, who is a college student with, ah, something to prove, who is looking for her brother, Chris Redfield, who just survived a zombie apocalypse of his own at the Spencer mansion. Shit is about to get real.
In the trailer, we see Ada Wong for the first time, who is an umbrella employee and a little hussie to boot. We also get a look at Sherry Birkin, whose dad is screwing everything up by giving himself a giant eye, making the G-virus, and being a bad father. Claire will spend a painful amount of time chasing her around calling her name.
Watch the trailer, feel the hype, and get ready for this bad Larry when it drops January of 2019.
