The close-up, over-the-shoulder camera feels borrowed from RE4, while the mood, tone, speed and difficulty appears ripped right from the original RE2. The engine, many UI elements and general look of the game is borrowed from the realistic look of RE7. The RE2 remake, which I played at E3, feels like a really clever combination of elements from across the series.
Full-blown remakes of classic games that were on iffy hardware seem like they'll become pretty common on the future - but Capcom is looking to set the bar high with Resident Evil 2.
