Resident Evil 2, one of the greatest hits in Capcom history, is making a comeback on Apple, launching December 10 on the App Store. Optimized for iPhone 16 and iPhone 15 Pro models, as well as M1 and newer iPad and Mac devices, the reimagined game combines the tense survival horror experience of the original with enhanced audio, upgraded graphics, and mobile-friendly features. Players can once again follow rookie police officer Leon S. Kennedy and college student Claire Redfield as they navigate the zombie-infested streets of Raccoon City.
This release brings new features tailored to mobile, such as an Auto Fire option, which helps players by automatically firing at enemies after aiming for a short period—a helpful update for newcomers to the horror genre. Who prefer the classic console feel can also connect supported controllers to enjoy traditional gameplay.
It is important, really, to know that the Universal Purchase and cross-progression features let players seamlessly switch between iPhone, iPad, and Mac, so they can pick up right where they left off on any compatible Apple device and with a free-to-download segment of the story, fans can dive into the terror of Raccoon City before purchasing the full game. Here you can pre-register for the game.
