Based on the original, Resident Evil 2 has been completely rebuilt from the ground up using Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine, It offers a fresh take on the classic survival horror saga with more realistic visuals, immersive audio, a new over-the-shoulder camera, and modernized controls on top of gameplay modes from the original game.
Resident Evil 3 tells the story of S.T.A.R.S. member Jill Valentine as she escapes from Raccoon City and the relentless Nemesis. Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine combines photorealistic visuals and a modernized control scheme with the series’ intense combat and puzzle-solving chronicling the final chapter of Raccoon City’s collapse.
In Resident Evil 7, the series switched to first-person view much to the delight for some, and chagrin of others. In the game, you control Ethan Winters as he searches for his missing wife in a derelict plantation occupied by an infected family. You will need to solve puzzles in this outing which emphasizes exploration.
Capcom is currently celebrating 25 years of Resident Evil.
