“Resident Evil, where i am one of the main characters called Leon S. One of the main characters in Resident Evil 2 remake, Leon is played by Eduard Badaluta a Romanian model.Įduard posted in his Instagram account confirming he is one of character in the game. If you’re curious who’s behind the real faces/actors of the main character in the game, we are here to uncover it! Eduard Badaluta as Leon S. The story also seems to function better this way, but only in minor ways.Īgain, you can really go either way with your character choices, but if you want the very best RE2 experience, the way that many fans, including myself, recommend is to go with Claire, and save Leon for the 2nd Run.Resident Evil 2 remake is launching tomorrow worldwide, everyone can finally play the game without limit and re-experience the game on this new remake. Claire being underpowered works best because you feel less of a hit when you lose all your weapons/items and reset the clock on your adventure. This is actually counter to how I did it my first time with RE2 Remake and way back when I played it on N64 (like a boss). It feels like the best combination is to choose Claire first and Leon for the 2nd Run. So, now that that’s all explained, here’s my thoughts on which character to play first in Resident Evil 2. None of this changes based on your choice, they are just a part of the individual campaigns. Leon gets an ample selection of heavy weapons, including the shotgun, flamethrower, and more. Claire does have a nice grenade launcher and sub-machine gun, with a decent amount of ammo for both.

X (a major shift from the original game) and the G-Virus infected monster. Light spoilers to follow…Whatever character you pick first will be the one who enters the RPD through the front entrance, will work with Lieutenant Marvin Branagh to explore the building, and will have to deal with both Tyrant/Mr. Instead of being very distinct from each other, the campaigns are streamlined and melded together in a way, with less impact on your experience based around your choice. The game handles its two characters and campaigns a bit differently than the original release. Kennedy or Claire Redfield and have a full, fun experience with Resident Evil 2. The truth is that you can choose either Leon S. To help you make this critical choice, here’s a rundown of my thoughts on which character to play first in Resident Evil 2 Remake.

Like the original release, the Resident Evil 2 remake offers two playable characters, and which you play with first makes for a significant difference in both gameplay and story.

As you begin your adventure into the horror of a zombie infested Raccoon City, you have one important choice to make.
