It will have gameplay similar to that of RE4 and 5, but will have more of a focus on survival horror. It will be released on January 25, 2019.

This is my most anticipated for next year. RE2 is still my all time favorite game.

I enjoyed RE4 the most, because of the over-the-shoulder viewpoint ,and because it's scary (despite people saying it's not true survival horror). RE5 isn't scary, thus it felt a bit flat. I didn't play much of RE6 , because it played sloppily, and felt cheesy.
I'm excited about this RE2 remake, having the over-the-shoulder view, but with real survival horror( making ammo scarce) will make it feel intense ,and using proper zombies will make it creepy.

Can it be? An author for Kotaku who’s not a completely clueless social justice warrior idiot?

There was much speculation in 1998 as to whether Akuma from Street Fighter was really in RE2 , or was it just a hoax.
The popular Akuma hoax was birthed into the Resident Evil 2 community thanks to the work of the now defunct Electronic Gaming Monthly spin-off magazine, EGM2. The publication's April issue "Trick of the Month" column stated that Akuma could be unlocked by typing "AKUMA" instead of "GUEST" on a laboratory computer located at the end of the game, allowing a new save file to be made where you could play him. However, to actually get this to work, EGM2 claimed you needed to first beat both Resident Evil 2 scenarios six times in a row with an A-rank, and do it only using the handgun combat knife. Akuma could then be unlocked on the seventh run after inputting the login name across both scenarios. This was clearly an April Fool’s joke, but readers quickly spread word of the false unlockable.
Looking back at the low-resolution screenshots from EGM2, it's not surprising that many were fooled by this joke. A polygonal Akuma exploring RPD and launching Shakunetsu Hadokens at zombies looked as authentic any other screenshots in the magazine
Capcom certainly isn't shy towards allowing Akuma to be in ridiculous situations and crossovers. He recently jumped franchises by appearing in Tekken 7, somehow managing to be naturally incorporated into that franchise's lore. In addition, Akuma once appeared in Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter as Cyber-Akuma, a cyborg version of himself with a sweet robot arm that was brainwashed by X-Men baddie Apocalypse.

I just played thirty minutes of this game. It really, truly is the definitive version of RE2.
Claire Redfield's new look just washed away all the bad memories of her atrocious Toby Maguire faceplant that was evident in RE Revelations 2. She looks fantastic here.
The whole game looks fantastic. And I still can't properly kill those damned Lickers.

The reviewers say the game does a good job of never allowing you to feel safe, and the gore is used in a good way to have a psychological impact without feeling overdone.
