Resident Evil 2 Remake Demo Coming To PS4, Xbox One & PC
The highly-anticipated Resident Evil 2 remake is set to launch later this month for several platforms, and it has now been revealed by Capcom that everyone will be able to check it out early. Rumors last month suggested that this demo was coming, but today it has officially been confirmed.
Starting this Friday, PS4, Xbox One and PC gamers will be able to download a demo of the game via their respective stores. This demo will only give players 30 minutes to play what it has to offer, and then you’ll get booted to the menu screen. Considering that 30 minutes is pretty lengthy, this should give players plenty of time to see what this game is all about. You’ll only be able to play the demo once, but you’ll also unlock a new trailer for the game that is exclusive to demo players.
The demo goes live on January 11th, though it will be taken down on January 30th. However, considering that the full release launches on the 25th, most will likely have no need of the demo by that point anyway.
While it was originally suggested that this demo would only be coming to Xbox One, this announcement has proven that false. Xbox One received the excellent Devil May Cry 5 demo last month exclusively, which was a move that surprised many. It’s worth noting that the next Devil May Cry 5 demo will also be coming to PS4.
Resident Evil 2 remake launches for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC on January 15th. Capcom has rebuilt the game from the ground up, not only overhauling the visuals but also changing the game’s camera system to the over-the-shoulder system introduced in Resident Evil 4.
Konami promised that free-to-play soccer sim eFootball would add PES’ massively popular Master League mode, but while this month’s v3.20 update will add more solo content, you’ll have to wait. My League lets you play full seasons as a single player with changing weather and exclusive rewards to reduce the wait.
You’ll replace a real team from your league, like England or Italy. The gacha system unlocks players that you’ll use to fight the AI and win the table. Play through the mode as many times as you want, with custom cutscenes and other features to track your progress. It all seems like a way to make dream team gameplay appealing to offline players.
Online play is also getting better. A new tier system will match you with players of similar skill levels, and co-op will soon let you join strangers instead of friends. You can use emojis to discuss your matches’ successes and failures or strategize with new allies.
We assume new cards with perks will allow Konami to create “rarer” versions of players when they perform certain real-life feats. A new login feature will include a penalty-taking minigame where you must score a goal to climb a ladder and unlock in-game rewards like virtual currency. For now, that’s it.
The critically panned game improves, but not as fast as former PES fans would like. The gameplay is good, and there are more things to do, but without that meaty single-player mode, old-school franchise fans will always rank it lower. Konami should revive one of the best solo sports game modes soon.
We expected it to be big, but this big? Only ten hours after Rockstar unceremoniously released GTA 6’s trailer after an unexpected leak, it has over 50 million views. This video is the top trending video on YouTube worldwide, ignoring mirrors from IGN and Gamespot.
Instead of waiting until later today, the developer released the first footage of the latest Grand Theft Auto after a watermarked version leaked on Twitter. The team is understandably upset, but the video’s overwhelming response will reassure it. It has 50 million views and 6.5 million likes.
This could reach 100 million by the end of the day as it’s shared worldwide and fans search for Easter eggs and secrets. How many times have you seen the new trailer?
PS Plus Essential members can redeem three more PS5 and PS4 games on the PS Store now. LEGO 2K Drive, PowerWash Simulator, and Sable are available until January 2, 2024. These are available to UK and European users now, and the US will follow later today.
58% of nearly 10,000 users called this month’s selection “crap.” If you think the lineup is decent, LEGO 2K Drive and PowerWash Simulator are your top picks. The monthly PS Plus update will bring more games to PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers in a few weeks.
