Resident Evil 2, one of the best horror games ever made, is coming to Xbox Game Pass later this month on January 16.
Resident Evil 2 marks the first time any of Capcom’s ace horror remakes have joined Xbox Game Pass. It’s also arguably the best of the trio - it’s so good that it kicked off a wave of horror game revivals with Resident Evil 3 and 4, EA Motive’s Dead Space, Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2, and Alone in the Dark. Resident Evil 2 Remake might just go down as one of the most influential modern horror games to date.
What’s more,Capcom isn’t done with horror remakesafter the success of the Resident Evil trilogy, stating as much late last year. Just look at the anticipation for Resident Evil 4 remake’s Separate Ways DLC to see the appetite among fans for more remake horror. Unfortunately we could be getting a Resident Evil 5 remake down the line, but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.
