Resident Evil Free Download (v1.0 Hotfix 2)

About Resident Evil

Your Special Tactics and Rescue Squad has been choppered to a remote mansion to investigate a biotechnical experiment gone hideously wrong. Before you can say “mass murder,” you’re plunged straight into a deathtrap writhing with man-eating freaks, swarming crows and rabid dogs.

Arm yourself with knives and flame-throwers scavenged from dead teammates. Solve puzzles, disarm traps and unearth mysteries. But beware: every move you make draws you deeper into the deadly embrace of Resident Evil™.

The iconic classic is back, better than ever, and made to last forever. Here’s how we ensured it and what you can expect with GOG’s version of the game:

Full compatibility with Windows 10 and Windows 11.
All 4 localizations of the game included (English, German, French, Japanese).
Improved DirectX game renderer.
New rendering options (Windowed Mode, Vertical Synchronization Control, Gamma Correction, Integer Scaling, Anti-Aliasing and more).
Improved timing of the cutscenes.
Improved game video player.
Improved game registry settings.
Issue-free game exit and task switching.
Full support for modern controllers (Sony DualSense, Sony DualShock4, Microsoft Xbox Series, Microsoft Xbox One, Microsoft Xbox 360, Nintendo Switch, Logitech F series and many more) with optimal button binding regardless of the hardware and wireless mode.

Our version of the game keeps all the original content intact – 1996’s description is no exception. Take a trip down memory lane and see how Resident Evil™ was described to gamers when it launched all those years ago:

FEATURES:

A swarm of unknown horrors prowl the mansion’s hundreds of rooms, including it’s underground lairs, the graveyard and some unwelcoming guest houses
Unprecedented detail-intense texture maps, shadows and lighting effects, plus ever-changing camera angles, create a frighteningly rich 3-D environment.
Choose to play tough guy marksman Chris Redfield or hardcore demolition expert Jill Valentine, both brought to life with realistic polygon character graphics.
Ominous digital surround soundtrack features haunting music that intensifies the action.
