Resident Evil 2^{[Note 1]} is a singleplayer survival horror game developed and published by Capcom. It is part of the Resident Evil series and a remake of the original 1998 game of the same name, chronologically takes place two months after the event of Resident Evil remake.

It was released on January 25, 2019. A demo of the game is also available.

On June 14, 2022, Capcom rolled out a update for the game in which raytracing and 3D audio were added, but the same update had also removed the option to use DirectX 11, forcing players to use DirectX 12. After complaints of worse performance, a beta branch was made available to use the older version of the game. The same update also breaks many mods made specifically for older version of the game, requiring many modders to update their mods to be compatible with the latest version. Enabling Shadow Cache may increase performance by 33%.^[2]

Microsoft Store version requires Enigma Protector DRM.^[3]

A demo is available on Steam.

Bypassing the Steam DRM via .dll removal will create a new local save folder inside the game folder. Any DLC files present (if you own any) will not function this way, but game content introduced via patches (such as the "The Ghost Survivors" episodes) will.

Denuvo Anti-Tamper DRM was removed from the Steam version on December 18, 2019.^[4]

Version differences

The Deluxe Edition includes all the DLC minus the pre-order bonus.

Essential improvements

REFix

An REFramework plugin that provides fixes and gameplay improvements. Works on both the DX11 non-raytraced version and the DX12 version.

Removes horizontal mouse speed scaling relative to pitch

Removes input damping

FOV-dependent sensitivity

Removes dynamic difficulty^[5]

Improves zombie animation frame rate

Installation
Download REFramework and REFix. Put `dinput8.dll` found in `RE2.zip` or `RE2_TDB66.zip` depending on your version of the game in <path-to-game>. Run your game and then exit (so it makes its files/folders etc). Put `REFix.dll` from REFix into `<path-to-game>\reframework\plugins`.

If running under Proton, user.reg needs to be updated so that the custom dinput8.dll gets loaded. Refer to this reddit post.

Multi-monitor

This mod centers the UI for multi-monitor resolutions and removes the cinematic black borders for 21:9 resolutions and above.

It also tweaks the vignette so it is not visible (removing it creates a color inversion bug).

Use fix by helifax (DX11/DX12 versions)^[6]
Download RE2 3DMigoto w/Reshade Hook Support Fix. Copy the content next to `RE2.exe`. Fix the FOV for multi-monitor resolutions: Option 1: Apply the FOV hex edit by Jackfuste Option 2: Using a hex editor, replace the following bytes in `re2.exe`: `FD FF A7 3F 00 00 00 00` => `FD FF A7 40 00 00 00 00` Swap between centered UI and default UI by pressing `F11` (enabled by default for multi-monitor resolutions). Notes It doesn't change the UI at 4:3, 16:9, 16:10, 21:9 resolutions. Not compatible with the REFramework mod. Does not work for ultrawide resolutions in DX12 mode.

Not compatible with the REFramework mod.

Does not work for ultrawide resolutions in DX12 mode.

Disable vignette

Resident Evil 2 has a very strong vignette. While some may feel being unable to see the left and right sides of the screen adds to the horror, others may feel it is annoyingly dark and like looking through a telescope. This is the game with vignette on and this is vignette off.

Use REFramework^[7]
Put `dinput8.dll` found in `RE2.zip` or `RE2_TDB66.zip` depending on your version of the game in <path-to-game> (if you do not use VR, do NOT extract anything else, only `dinput8.dll`). Press `Insert` in-game to access to the menu and disable the vignette. You might need to toggle in and out of first person mode for the vignette to be disabled in third person.

Hex edit the executable of the game^[8]
Go to <path-to-game>. Copy `re2.exe` and paste it somewhere. Open original `re2.exe` from <path-to-game> in a hex editor, e.g. HxD. Search for `8B 87 3C 01 00 00 89 83 DC 00 00 00` and replace it with `31 C0 90 90 90 90 89 83 DC 00 00 00`. Save and close the file. Notes Causes color inversion bug. Supports DirectX 11 and 12. This fix will only work on the dx11_non-rt branch of the game, updated as of 04/27/2023. If a mistake is made and the file gets corrupted, verify the game files through Steam to restore it to its original state or replace original `re2.exe` with saved copy.

Disable sharpening

Use REFramework
Put `dinput8.dll` found in `RE2.zip` or `RE2_TDB66.zip` depending on your version of the game in <path-to-game>. Launch RE2 to generate the required autorun and plugins folders. Put `re2_sharpness_removal.lua` and `utility` found in `RE2.zip` or `RE2_TDB66.zip` in `<path-to-game>\reframework\autorun`

Use RE2 3D Vision Fix
Notes Press `F4` for no sharpening.

Zombies animate at 30 FPS

Even if you play at 60 or variable (uncapped) FPS, zombies still animate at a maximum of 30 FPS when they are far from the player.^[10]

Use REFix

Make zombies always animate at full frame rate^[11]
Go to <path-to-game>. Copy `re2.exe` and paste it somewhere. Open `re2.exe` with a hex editor such as HxD. Go to offset `4F3E70` (`Ctrl`+`G` in HxD). Find `44 8B C5`. Replace with `45 31 C0`. Save and close the file. Notes This fix will only work on the dx11_non-rt branch of the game, updated as of 04/27/2023. If a mistake is made and the file gets corrupted, verify the game files through Steam to restore it to its original state or replace original `re2.exe` with saved copy.

Issues unresolved

Multimedia keys and Windows key are disabled

No solution.

Issues fixed

Mouse sensitivity issues

The horizontal mouse speed is highest when looking at the horizon and decreases linearly as the player looks up or down.

All mouse movement is scaled by a factor that changes dynamically based on how much the mouse is already moving.

The mouse sensitivity decreases when the FOV is lower and vice versa.

Use REFix to fix all mouse issues

Knife damage is tied to frame rate

The survival knife does variable damage based on the current frame rate.^[15]

Fatal Application Exit - renderdevicedx11.cpp error crash

This may occur when the helicopter comes.^[16]

Update Windows and drivers to the latest version
Verify integrity of the game
Delete re2_config.ini in the game folder location and reopen the game
Open re2_config.ini in the game folder and add "PCResolution=12" under "[Render]". Edit resolution once the game is able to open
Change DirectX version (if both work fine, use 11 as there is less performance loss over 12 in this game)

Graphics menu displays incorrect amount of VRAM

The game can display an incorrect amount of VRAM for you GPU in the graphics menu.^[17]^[18]

Does not affect performance or available graphics options.

The game may warn you that you will experience poor performance in high settings, but as long as your GPU's actual VRAM is sufficient this is not true.

"This extra save data is not compatible and cannot be used"

Saved games are tied to whatever region Windows is set to, so it can cause issues with cloud-saves across computers.

Change Windows region settings^[19]
If your save game is failing to load after changing to another computer, you need to go into the Windows "Region" settings and change your region to whichever the previous computer had theirs set to. Typically for most English users, its default is "United States". Once you've changed it, re-launch the game (no reboot required)

Game becomes too dark/bright at times

Sometimes, the game may become very dark, such as when standing near the stairs in the main hall, or even simply exploring the RPD. Then at other times, it may become too bright.

Various fixes^[20]
Try installing latest video drivers. Lower the image quality, such as from `100%` to `50%`. Turn off `Screen Space Reflections` in options. Cap the framerate at 30 or 60, not `Variable`. Try changing around windowed/fullscreen/borderless fullscreen mode. Disable anything with "shadow" in options (`Shadow Cache`, `Contact Shadows`). Try changing from DirectX 12 back to 11. Try increasing the texture quality to use 2GB or more of VRAM. It is set to 0.5GB by default. Try changing Ambient Occlusion settings, watching for screen darkening/brightening. Note: Some potential fixes, specifically setting `Shadow Cache` to off, will have a negative impact on performance.^[2]

(Nvidia users) Downgrade graphics drivers to version 399.24^{[citation needed]}

Stutters

Resident Evil 2 is known to have stutters for many players. Apart from the possible fixes under "Game becomes too dark/bright at times", another method is to increase the paging file size. Resident Evil 2 uses heavy resources on a PC's paging file, which acts as alternate virtual RAM.^[21] If the paging file is set too low (such as a maximum of 2GB), this can act as a performance bottleneck, resulting in frequent stutters while exploring. This is especially true if the system's RAM is 8GB and under. Increasing the paging file size (such as from 2GB to 8GB) can drastically improve performance and reduce stutters.

Increase paging file size
Open start menu, type "run" and use run command. Enter systempropertiesadvanced. Go to "Advanced" tab and click settings. Go to "Advanced" and choose "programs" instead of "background services". Under virtual memory, click change. Uncheck "Automatically manage paging file for all drives" at the top. Select custom size. Although there is no definitive paging file size, try making the initial and maximum both 12288. Click OK and restart your computer. Try the game to see if performance is improved.

It is part of the ''[[Series:Resident Evil|Resident Evil]]'' series and a remake of the original [[Resident Evil 2| 1998 game of the same name]], chronologically takes place two months after the event of ''[[Resident Evil HD Remaster|Resident Evil remake]]''.
-{{ii}} On June 14, 2022, Capcom rolled out patches for modern ''Resident Evil'' games which added raytracing and 3D audio but removed DX11, forcing players to use DX12. After complaints of worse performance, a beta branch was made available to use the older version. Modders are in the process of converting their mods to be usable with the new version.

-{{ii}} The game has dynamic color filters which will appear depending on the room, such as a blue tint. There is a [https://www.nexusmods.com/residentevil22019/mods/760 mod] for those who dislike them (read description carefully about the save load), although it currently is not available for the raytracing patch.

+|current state     = On June 14, 2022, Capcom rolled out a update for the game in which raytracing and 3D audio were added, but the same update had also removed the option to use DirectX 11, forcing players to use DirectX 12. After complaints of worse performance, a beta branch was made available to use the older version of the game. The same update also breaks many mods made specifically for older version of the game, requiring many modders to update their mods to be compatible with the latest version. Enabling Shadow Cache may increase performance by 33%.<ref name="DFshadow">{{Refsnip|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MvYJLU5FsQ&t=460|title=Resident Evil 2 Remake: Complete PC Analysis + Xbox One X Comparison!|date=2019-01-29|snippet=[starting at timestamp 7:55] Here, I can only recommend leaving Shadow Caching on, as turning it off can result in a 25% performance loss with no visual gain.}}</ref>
