Re2 Trailer

Earlier this week GameSpot uploaded the official Resident Evil 2 story trailer to their YouTube channel. Just in case you live under a rock (I can’t imagine that anyone would hate RE), Capcom is bringing a new life to their perennial PlayStation classic.

The trailer itself is a beautiful piece of art and promises to bring just a little bit of everything that you could want in a remake while offering a slightly new experience. Leon S. Kennedy looked so very familiar to his original RE2 counterpart and Claire Redfield looks more natural with a more modern outfit than her old wonky tracksuit like outfit from the original game.

Corporate spy and general badass Ada Wong gets the most noticeable changes to her aesthetics by ditching her trademark maroon dress and replacing it with something more akin to the James Bond movies.

The game doesn’t release until Jan 25th of next year but Capcom knows just when to plant finely crafted seeds of glorious entertainment to keep me interested.
