With the new Resident Evil 2 game launching today, Capcom is celebrating with a new launch trailer and a live-action trailer that pays tribute to the trailer George A. Romero directed for the original Resident Evil 2 back in 1998.
"In 1998, George A. Romero produced a trailer for the original Resident Evil 2. 21 years later, we give you a RE2 Remake live-action trailer inspired by his work!
You have once again entered the world of survival horror. Take a trip to Raccoon City with Resident Evil 2 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Steam!
Using Capcom’s proprietary RE ENGINE, Resident Evil 2 offers a fresh take on the classic survival horror saga with breathtakingly realistic visuals, heart-poundingly immersive audio, a new over-the-shoulder camera, and modernized controls on top of gameplay modes from the original game. The classic action, tense exploration, and puzzle solving gameplay that defined the Resident Evil series returns. Players join rookie police officer Leon S. 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."
