Resident Evil 2 ‘1-Shot’ Demo Arriving This Week
Resident Evil 2 will be getting a “1-Shot” demo this week for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Steam.
Announced by Capcom, this 1-Shot Demo will give players one chance and 30 minutes to try out the remake of the 1998 horror classic.
The demo will be available for download from January 11 through January 31 and will be similar to the demos that have been shown at such events as E3.
Players will be put in the shoes of rookie cop Leon Kennedy as he explores the terror that has overtaken Raccoon City Police Department.
While the demo will only last 30 minutes, players will be able to continue if they die. However, once the time is up, so will be the demo.

Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen Arriving on Nintendo Switch This Spring
Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen will be arriving on Nintendo Switch this April.
Announced by Dragon’s Dogma’s Twitter, the popular fantasy RPG from Capcom will find a new home on the Nintendo Switch on April 23, 2019, following its re-release on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One last year.
Dragon’s Dogma was originally released in 2012 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, and in our review we said “Dragon’s Dogma has the scale and challenge of a great action RPG, but not the character or polish. Nonetheless, if you can persist, there’s a lot to love here, and some great ideas that make you want to give it a chance.”

Resident Evil 2 Getting A Demo, And It’s An Unusual One
The remake of Resident Evil 2 is creeping closer and closer, and soon you’ll get a taste of the action. But true to the tense survival-horror tone of the series, it’s going to be a race against the clock that tests your skills and wits, and once time has expired you’re out of luck. The demo will be available to download from January 11 through January 31.
The “1-Shot Demo” for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One will last just 30 minutes. You’ll be put into the shoes of Leon with a set of objectives to complete. If you finish them before the timer is up you can restart the mission to explore Raccoon City again to fill out the rest of the time. If you become a zombie snack, you’ll be able to continue as much as you’d like until you hit the time limit.
Once you complete the demo, you’ll get to view an exclusive new cinematic trailer. You won’t be able to play the demo again once the time has expired, but you can view the trailer as much as you’d like.
Just like the original, the full game will feature dual perspectives between Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield. It’s an ambitious project that goes far beyond a simple reskin, though, as Capcom is designing it from the ground up with new scares and a more modern control scheme.
Resident Evil 2 will release on January 25. It’s among our most anticipated games of 2019, in large part because it appears to be doing justice to a bona fide classic. Capcom has been teasing bonus extras like classic costumes and other special looks for the remake. For details on how to get all of their clothing options, along with several other special edition goodies, check out everything we know.
