Resident Evil 2 Official FAQ (Updated 1/24/2019)

Can my PC run this game?

For a list of System Requirements for the game, please visit the Steam Store page.

You can also run a third-party app such as System Requirements Lab[www.systemrequirementslab.com] for more information regarding compatibility with your hardware. Please note that System Requirements Lab is not officially supported nor endorsed by Capcom.

If you do meet the minimum specifications but not the recommended specifications, you may want to try turning down the graphics settings, if you haven't already. Please note that most graphical settings changes require the game to be restarted in order for the changes to take effect.

Capcom does not warrant nor officially provide technical support for PCs that do not meet the official, minimum system requirements.

I’m having trouble running the game.

Please follow the steps outlined in the initial post of the Official RE2 Troubleshooting & Issue Reporting Thread to help resolve the issue.

When is the game coming out in my territory?

Please refer to the launch times shared in this Steam News post.

What kind of controllers does Resident Evil 2 on PC/Steam support?

Resident Evil 2 on PC/Steam supports keyboard and mouse, as well as XInput (Xbox 360, Xbox One) devices.

Although PlayStation 4’s DualShock 4 controller is not natively supported, it may be used with the game provided users toggle the Steam Controller Configurator setting within Big Picture Mode. Please note in-game menu button prompts will still correlate to the Xbox 360 / Xbox One controller.

To properly enable DualShock 4 detection within Steam, please follow these steps:

Ensure any external controller re-mapper programs/apps such as Joy2Key, XPadder, Xbox360CE, and/or DS4WINDOWS are disabled, as they may interfere with the game.
In the Steam client, click the controller-shaped “Big Picture Mode” icon at the top-right corner of the window.
Select “Settings” > “Controller Settings” in Big Picture Mode and checkmark the “PS4 Configuration Support” setting.
Reconnect your PlayStation 4 DualShock 4 controller.
Your controller is now ready to be used.
Optional: You can highlight the game in Big Picture mode and select “Manage Game” > “Controller Configuration” for deeper DualShock 4 configuration.
