Gamescom 2018 has proved to be very eventful so far with the announcement of new games and hardware, it has been a rather exciting couple of days, to say the least. The event was started off with the much awaited Nvidia Turing GPU announcement that we covered yesterday. A couple of games were announced as well during the conference such as the Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Today, what we have for you is the Resident Evil 2 Remake. Gamescom has bestowed us with more details and screenshots that people were eagerly awaiting. Resident Evil 2 originally came out in 1998 on the first ever PS system, however, the game was an instant success and Capcom, the developer for the whole franchise, followed Resident Evil 2 with a number of other sequels. Due to the game’s popular demand, Capcom decided last year that a remake for current gen systems was needed and they are not wrong. The news of the remake has gotten players across the world very excited.

Unveiled at Gamescom 2018, claire will be making her debut in the upcoming Resident Evil 2 Remake. A whole campaign story will be dedicated to her alone. On a mission to find her brother Chris, Claire will have to fight her way through all sorts of horrors in Racoon City. According to the official website,

Surviving the streets of the once-lively city, Claire manages to make her way to the Raccoon City police station, hoping to find information on the whereabouts of her brother, Chris… but she finds something much more sinister instead. In this preview, Claire explores a new portion of the R.P.D. before encountering a small, young abandoned child hiding in the sewers and waterways beneath the iconic station. Long-time fans need no introduction to who this child is, or the reason she’s running scared; Sherry Birkin warns Claire that a horrendous monster is right behind her, and the next chapter in her fight for survival begins.

A mutated figure wielding a pipe is out to crush anything that stand in his way, and sets his eyes on our heroine as nothing more than a roadblock to be destroyed. The resourceful Claire will have her survival skills put to the test, but has a few weapons at her disposal – including a grenade launcher packed with flammable rounds of ammunition.

Carefully navigating the machinery and steam coming from broken pipes, it’s hard to tell where an attack might come from next. Conserving ammunition is key, and knowing when, and where, to get a few shots in may be the only thing between survival and certain death in this tense encounter. Sending the creature over the edge will reunite Claire and Sherry, but for how long…?

Just like with Leon, Claire will have her own, full campaign that takes her through Raccoon City, the police department, and beyond. Familiar faces from the original game have received stunning upgrades in this remake, using the RE Engine to scan real people, right down to their clothing, to bring the heroes, villains, and world of Resident Evil 2 to life. The new Resident Evil 2 wraps everything up in an experience that both veteran fans and Resident Evil newcomers can enjoy.

With Resident Evil 2 coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on January 25th, 2019, you won’t have to wait much longer to return to Raccoon City.
