Resident Evil 2 is out in less than a week, predict its Metacritic (no spoilers)

[Dijital_Majik]

91-92 is my guess.

 

[Pyro]

91!

 

[StallionDan]

90.

It's single player only, doesn't have an endless open world of mediocrity, nor is it a dad simulator to bring hollow feels.

 

[Arion]

91 seems likely.

 

[Joeyro]

After playing the demo 92-93 is on lock.

 

[Okabe]

91

 

[asd202]

It's probably too high but 90+. I believe!

 

[Acquiescence]

The game screams quality, and has done ever since the E3 trailer last year. I'll go with 92.

 

[Soneji]

I'll go with 92, it being a remake is going to hurt it's score a bit between those who don't want to score a remake too high and those that loved the original nitpicking changes. Horror games are also one of those genres with a metacritic cap.

 

[KingdomKey]

I'm thinking between 85 and 90.

 

[bigbaldwolf86]

90+ the demo was a great teaser for the game and plays well. The atmosphere and graphics are fantastic

 

[Son of Sparda]

90-94 for sure. My exact guess would be 93.

I just expect RE2 to do incredibly well all around.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

Since it is not a fresh entry to the series and just a great remake of an old game which means the same story settings and gameplay to go trough, I can'tsee it exceeding 90-92

 

[Zukuu]

87-89

 

[Phil's Empty Chair]

89

 

[Mirage]

I'll guess 90.

 

[DG5000]

I'd say in the low 90's. Between 90-92.

 

[Ryo]

Generally it will be reviewed as a remake rather than a new release so it could easily be in the low 90s, the Shadow of the Colossus remake reviewed as well as the original did.

 

[MrWonderworld]

I'm thinking 91.

 

[Asbsand]

Will be shocked if it's lower than 85.

 

[Deleted member 5028]

87. Even though it's got a new polish most of the games systems won't have been updated well enough that it'll be judged a bit unfairly as a sign of the times the original released in. The inventory system for one will be a common complaint in the press I imagine due to a time where mostly every game gives you unlimited storage except a few. Yes, I know that only increases the survival horror aspect but that's the sort of complaint we'll see.

 

[Francesco]

Other than the graphics and shooting, have they improved on the core mechanics of the game or was it already "perfect" 20 years ago?

 

[TheRedLotus]

Both original editions of RE1 and REMake got 91 on Metacritic. So I bet on 89, just as the original RE2 for PS1 had.

 

[Deleted member 23094]

You know Claire, we really are the Resident Evil. 92.

 

[Deleted member 888]

80-84, but maybe 85-89.

I think there's going to be some jank, some things not "modernized enough" and some bugs/glitches.

I already think the movement is off, but I don't think that's something the reviewers are going to say much about. Sound design is weak, as is the weight/impact of shooting, but again, often something reviewers overlook.

 

[ParanoidRED]

92-94

I have huge expectations for this game

 

[GongagaSOLDIER]

I think it will be slightly higher than RE7, so maybe an 87/88? I just don't know that it will meet all critics expectations (and preferences) to reach a 90. But time will tell!

 

[blitzblake]

Low 90's if you played the original, mid 80's if you haven't.

 

[TRUE ORDER]

I think that it will have a 93 score. Going by the previews and the good reception from the demo.

Now give us R3make

 

[VaanXSnake]

between 80 and 84, it's presentation is really good but the game design is too old for me, I can't like like those anymore.

 

[blackmass]

87 score. Just a few days more! I can't believe it.

 

[Jawmuncher]

The discussion here isn't very constructive and is more of a list thread than anything else. Besides that, metacritic prediction threads are frowned upon. The reviews for the game will be out soon enough & can be discussed in the upcoming review thread instead.
