Resident Evil 2 is a remake of the classic 1998 survival horror video game of the same name. It was developed and published by Capcom in 2019. The remake is much more than just an HD remaster. While fans of the original will feel like they’re in familiar territory, they’ll be met with new puzzles, new enemies, and new secrets to discover. Our walkthrough covers how to unlock all extras and achieve the S+ rank in every scenario.
The following Resident Evil 2 cheats apply to the 2019 remake for PS4, Windows PC, and Xbox One.
How to See Every Ending in Resident Evil 2
There are four main scenarios in Resident Evil 2, each with their own unique ending. Like the original game, players initially have the option to play as Leon Kennedy or Claire Redfield. Whichever character you choose, the puzzles and enemies you encounter are largely the same, but you meet different characters and use different weapons. Leon’s scenario is slightly more difficult because there are two additional boss fights.
Complete the game as either Claire or Leon to unlock an alternate scenario for the other character. In the B scenarios, some puzzle solutions are different, and you traverse certain locations in a different order. There’s also a new end boss you must defeat to see the “true” ending.
