New gameplay footage has been released today for Resident Evil 2 Remake, the remake of the second entry in the series launching on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One early next year.

The new footage, which can be checked out below, focuses on Claire's campaign, showing some intense confrontations with the fearsome Lickers which look better than they ever did in previous entries in the series.

During Gamescom 2018, Chris had the chance to try out the game, noting in his preview how Resident Evil 2 Remake is likely going to be the definitive edition of the game.

From what we’ve seen already with the Leon and Claire segments, this is pretty much the definitive edition of Resident Evil 2. I’m a fan, it was – as I said – the game that got me into horror titles. I’m not so far above admitting that the story has never exactly been fantastic. It will be interesting to see how exactly it has been changed and if Capcom have made changes for the better, as they said they have.

So far, all I can say is that the more I see, the more I’m looking forward to the Resident Evil 2 Remake.

Resident Evil 2 Remake launches on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on January 25th.
