소개
Resident Evil 2 is a seminal survival horror experience released in 1998 that revolutionized the genre. Thrusting players into a zombie-infested Raccoon City, you must balance exploration, puzzle-solving, and terrifying combat to escape. As either rookie cop Leon S. Kennedy or civilian Claire Redfield, you will uncover the dark secrets of the Umbrella Corporation.
스토리
Set two months after the original game, a T-virus outbreak has transformed Raccoon City's citizens into flesh-eating zombies. Leon and Claire must navigate the chaotic streets and the RPD precinct to survive. Their interconnected journeys pit them against Umbrella's twisted experiments, including the horrific G-virus mutation of William Birkin.
Gameplay
Players navigate atmospheric pre-rendered backgrounds using fixed camera angles, carefully managing limited ammunition and restricted save opportunities. The groundbreaking 'Zapping System' creates a dynamic dual-narrative where actions in one character's scenario directly impact the subsequent playthrough of the other.

The Zapping System
Resident Evil 2's most innovative feature is the Zapping System. By completing the 'A Scenario' as one character, players unlock a corresponding 'B Scenario' for the other. Actions taken in the first run—such as taking certain items or defeating specific enemies—directly influence the events, item availability, and encounters in the second run.
