Fans have been begging for Capcom to re-release the original, classic Resident Evil trilogy in its original form for some time now, and though a wider re-release remains elusive, the company has started making those older titles more freely available. In June, the original Resident Evil 1 was released for GOG, with Capcom confirming that its next two numbered successors will be following suit, and now, one of them has landed on the platform as well.
GOG has announced that the original Resident Evil 2 will become available on the platform a little over a week from now, on August 27. The re-release will feature improvements to cutscenes, subtitles, and audio, as well as various bug fixes, quality-of-life features (such as 4th Survivor and Tofu modes being unlocked from the get go), full support for modern controllers, and more.
There’s no word yet on when the original Resident Evil 3 will release for GOG, but as confirmed earlier in the year, we do know it’s set to launch in 2024 itself, so hopefully we’ll learn more about its release date soon enough.
