Immerse yourself in the ultimate test of survival. Face your fears in this terror-filled classic edition of Resident Evil™ 2 for PC containing more horror, more mutant creatures and more evil than before.
Just like with Resident Evil™, we made sure GOG's version of the second entry in the series is the best it can be. Here's what we did to make this masterpiece last forever:
Full compatibility with Windows 10 and Windows 11.
6 localizations of the game included (English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese).
Improved DirectX game renderer.
New rendering options (Windowed Mode, Vertical Synchronization Control, Gamma Correction, Integer Scaling and more).
Improved audio volume and panning.
Improved cutscenes and subtitles.
Improved savegame manager.
Improved game video player.
Issue-less game exit.
Improved game registry settings.
Improved key-binding settings and audio settings screens.
Improved end credits in the German version.
Fixed issues with Rooms 114 and 115 (missing text), Room 210 (invisible diary), and Room 409 (looping sound).
Full support for modern controllers (Sony DualSense, Sony DualShock4, Microsoft Xbox Series, Microsoft Xbox One, Microsoft Xbox 360, Nintendo
Switch, Logitech F series and many more) with optimal button binding regardless of the hardware, hotplugging and wireless mode.
4th Survivor and Tofu modes enabled from the very beginning.
Our version of the game keeps all the original content intact – 1998's description is no exception. Take a trip down memory lane and see how Resident Evil™ 2 was described to gamers when it launched all those years ago:
FEATURES:
2 Separate Adventures! Command Leon Kennedy, a rookie cop who stumbles onto the carnage reporting for his first duty, or play as Claire Redfield, desperately searching for her missing brother.
Cutting edge 3-D accelerated graphics that create a terrifying, photo-realistic experience.
3-D accelerated and non 3-D accelerated settings to maximize performance whatever your setup.
Features complete versions of both original U.S. and the original Japanese versions of Resident Evil™ 2.
New Extreme Battle Mode: Battle your way through hordes of zombies as you play the hyper-intensive challenge that changes every time you play.
All new Resident Evil™ 2 picture gallery.
The game's secret scenario available from the very beginning (no need to finish it under certain conditions first).

Not played this game since I was very young. I'm a massive Resident Evil fan (probably my favourite game franchise), and this is the only original that I haven't experienced in a long time and it's still such a solid game!
An absolute classic and one of the greatest games of all time! Really happy GOG have helped preserve this classic for the future, it also includes the bonus modes like 4th survivor etc so happy to see all the extra content here too.
So the original Resident Evil trilogy has been preserved now - this is a great thing, and I don't want to talk this down too much.
But there are a few negative things that I noticed:
A minor nitpick is that the auto-aim is inconsistent between the three games and can't be toggled in game.
- RE 1 has auto-aim now even though none of the original PC, PS1 or Saturn versions I played had it.
- RE 2 does NOT have auto-aim - dunno if the original PC version did, but the PS1 and GC release had it and you could turn it on and off in the optios menu.
- RE 3 has auto-aim again - what's up with that?
A far greater negative - almost a deal breaker for me - is the fact that it does not play nice with proton.
I was looking forward to re-playing the original trilogy on my Steam Deck without going through emulators and stuff, but as it stands today, playing the GoG releases on the Deck is the inferior option.
RE 1 crashes with an error right after startup - "Failed to initialize the Graphic Hardware Device.(3)"
There are several ways around it, but most of them give you a black screen during FMVs and you can only hear the audio.
The only way to get FMVs with working video and audio seems to be patching the game with files from the REbirth project - but then you would not need the GoG release to begin with because you can get the same result by obtaining a copy of the original PC release and adding the patches to that.
RE 2 also crashes with an error message (something about directX) - you can use the workarounds for RE 1 but then you get no FMVs at all - they get skipped altogether.
RE 3 starts without any workarounds, but again, no FMVs.
And none of the controller buttons are recognised - only the left analog stick.
YES, I know ... it says "Win10/Win11" in the system requirements and nothing else - but c'mon - with a few million Steam Decks out in the wild by now, I really think the Steam Deck and Proton should be a thing to test against before releasing a game.
