Resident Evil 2 Remake: 5 Major gameplay changes from the original you should know about

#2 No more Zapping System (Separate campaign for Leon and Claire)

We get two separate campaigns for Leon and Claire which will both play differently and not inter-dependent as previously

For better or worse, the upcoming RE 2 remake won't feature the original's Zapping System where you could swap between characters in the B playthrough of the game.

According to Capcom, this made the game very tedious and involved a lot of backtracking so they decided against it.

Instead, we get two separate campaigns for Leon and Claire which will both play differently and not inter-dependent as previously.

Though that doesn't mean that Leon and Claire won't interact midway in the game.

All the story encounters are still there thankfully.
