Capcom announced that they were going to show off the latest Resident Evil remake at Gamescom, and thankfully they did just that. Today we finally get a better look at Claire Redfield in the totally rebuilt and remade version of Resident Evil 2 headed to consoles and the PC early next year.
We had some hands-on time with an early build of the game at this past E3 (see that here), and Benny definitely enjoyed what he was able to play so far. Make sure to check that out as well.
See the new Gamescom screens below, and stay tuned for the Resident Evil 2 remake release on January 29th, 2018.
