According to MacRumors, Resident Evil 2 can be downloaded free on the App Store, and a certain portion of the game is allowed to be played for free, but all that the game has in store can only be experienced by paying for the complete edition.
The good news? Capcom is offering an incredible 75% discount on the full game for a limited time. Until January 8, players can grab the base game for just $9.99 (down from $39.99) and unlock all in-game rewards for an additional $1.99.
After this promotional period, the game will revert to its standard price of $39.99. Our advice? Get the game no later than the said date.
