Six years after launch, Resident Evil 2 Remake just became harder than ever

You’re down to your last few VP70 bullets. The Licker on the ceiling of the STARs corridor is scuttling rapidly towards you. Somewhere in the distance, you hear the increasingly loud bootsteps of the tyrannical Mr. X. Originally released in 2019, Resident Evil 2 Remake, particularly on the higher difficulty settings, can be one of the toughest survival horror games on PC. But with RE9 presumably in the works and the possibility of a Code Veronica remake lingering in the air, Capcom’s reimagined version of RE2 has just been transformed into one of the hardest PC games, period.
