Resident Evil 2’s reimagined boss fights are scarier than ever

I was five when Resident Evil 2 originally came out. Unsurprisingly, my parents decided to take heed of the age rating on the front of the box, saving me from the horrors inside. That was a convenient enough excuse then, but now, as a fully-fledged adult, I had no way out of enduring the remastered scares of the upcoming Resident Evil 2 remake in my Gamescom 2018 demo. I am Claire Redfield, shaking in my boots, which are now smeared with the dirt of the dank sewer in which I find myself. The silence around me is deafening as I trudge further into the depths. And for good reason: even if you know the original game back to front there are plenty of disturbing twists and tweaks to keep you on your toes. For a newcomer like me, though, this is all fresh - every last bang, scrape, and yell makes the hairs on the back my neck stand up. That said, even the opportunity to stock up on ammo and items early on in my demo proved to be portents, suggesting something grim is lying in wait ahead.
