Dino Crisis 2

Dino Crisis 2 follows Regina a year after the operation to retrieve Dr. Kirk. Third Energy, which can serve as both a source of clean energy and a potential weapon, has proved dangerously unpredictable. After the government takes over the project, another accident destroys Edward City in a reactor explosion more catastrophic than the first.

Story

The government sends a rescue team to recover research data and any personnel who remain in Edward City. The city is believed to have been displaced in time by the explosion, so the team uses an experimental, untested time gate to travel back. Regina is the one person who can foresee the consequences of the mission. Dylan also appears alongside Regina, continuing from the previous game.

Dinosaurs and weapons

The setting shifts from a facility to the world of the Cretaceous Period. Dinosaurs attack in jungles, caves, lakes and buildings overgrown with plants. The game features more than 10 types of dinosaurs, with twice as many able to attack at once as in the previous game. You can use an expanded range of weapons, each with its own characteristics, to overcome the challenges.

Included modes

The re-released version includes Easy difficulty, Dino Colosseum and Dino Duel. It also includes both of the game's localizations: English and Japanese.

Updated features

The re-release improves compatibility, rendering, music playback and item display, and fixes issues with video playback, task switching and exiting the game. It supports modern controllers, including Sony DualSense and DualShock4, Microsoft Xbox Series, Xbox One and Xbox 360 controllers, Nintendo Switch controllers and Logitech F-series controllers, with button bindings adapted to the hardware and wireless mode.

Its graphics options include display resolution and refresh rate, fullscreen or windowed presentation, aspect-ratio correction, scaling method, vertical synchronization, gamma correction, anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing. The renderer also offers integer scaling and other options.
