Cult Classic Horror to Return: 1998 Game Remade

Reimagining a Classic: The House of the Dead 2 Remake Arrives Spring 2025

Get ready for a blast from the past! Forever Entertainment and MegaPixel Studio are bringing the iconic 1998 arcade rail shooter, The House of the Dead 2, to modern platforms with a complete remake. Launching Spring 2025 across all major consoles and PC, this updated version promises enhanced visuals, new environments, and exciting gameplay additions.

Originally a standout in the late 90s, offering a unique alternative to the then-popular Resident Evil franchise, The House of the Dead 2 defined on-rails zombie shooting. Its gory hordes and intense action cemented its place as an arcade classic and a cornerstone of the zombie genre. While previously ported to various consoles, this remake delivers a significant overhaul.

The recently released announcement trailer showcases the game's modernized look and remastered audio. Players once again step into the shoes of a secret agent battling a massive zombie outbreak. The House of the Dead 2: Remake boasts upgraded graphics, expanded environments, and the option to tackle the undead hordes solo or with a friend in co-op mode. Multiple game modes, including a Classic Campaign and Boss Mode, branching paths, and multiple endings add significant replayability.
