Resident Evil 4 being nominated for several categories at The Game Awards 2023 shows that remakes are still very much in vogue. It seems evident that we should never forget the classics. And that's exactly what this one modder is doing with the original RE2.
Perhaps in an attempt to blend modern Resident Evil with the retro installments, Itch.io user PerroAutonomo (https://perroautonomo.itch.io/biohazard-2) has been remaking the second game in the series. Only, they aren't updating the visuals or the cheesy dialogue. No. They're sticking with how the original 1998 release looked, but have made it into a first-person shooter.

The above video from the YouTube channel Residence of Evil does a half hour playthrough of the demo. As for when the full thing will be released, PerroAutonomo's page says they may not finish it, and the current build "has many errors" (translated by Google (https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=en&text=Biohazard2+Demo+Fan+game.+Esto+es+una+demo+de +mi+propia+versi%C3%B3n+de+Resident+Evil+2.+No+hay +ninguna+intenci%C3%B3n+de+obtener+ning%C3%BAn+tip o+de+beneficio+econ%C3%B3mico+ni+de+renombre.+Hech o+con+intenci%C3%B3n+artistica+y+para+fans+de+la+% C3%A9poca.+Todos+los+derechos+pertenecen+a+CAPCOM. +El+juego+est%C3%A1+sin+terminar+y+dudo+que+lo+ter mine+en+un+futuro.+Tiene+multitud+de+fallos.+Se+pu ede+usar+rat%C3%B3n+WASD+y+mando+de+play.+%60%60E% C2%B4%C2%B4+para+interactuar.+Que+lo+disfruten%21% 21&op=translate)).
Complete with fully remade cut scenes
The footage shows how authentic this unofficial remake is. It endeavors to keep the visual style of Resident Evil 2 but chooses a different perspective. We get to see a lot of the game from new angles never seen before, and even though it's a fan project, it's still impressive to see.
As Capcom marches forward with its iconic survival horror series, we welcome whatever's on the horizon. With more Resident Evil remakes (https://www.destructoid.com/capcom-confirms-more-resident-evil-remakes-are-on-the-way/) being confirmed, everyone's going to be wondering which one's going to get the remake treatment next.
We may well get to see a fresh take on one of the spin-offs, such as Code Veronica or Umbrella Chronicles. Or maybe RE5 will get another crack at not being a disappointment. Time will tell on that front.
