Popular 1998 Horror Game Announces Full Remake

Key Features of The House of the Dead 2: Remake

  • A complete remake of the 1998 arcade classic, launching on all major platforms in Spring 2025.
  • Expect significantly enhanced visuals, new game environments, and a variety of gameplay modes, including cooperative play.
  • The original game, a seminal title in the on-rails shooter genre, defined a unique gaming experience distinct from contemporaries like Resident Evil.

Forever Entertainment and MegaPixel Studio are thrilled to announce the resurrection of a 1998 horror rail shooter masterpiece: The House of the Dead 2: Remake. This title, a standout from the late 90s, offered a gameplay experience unlike the then-popular Resident Evil franchise. Now, modern gamers can experience this classic with updated visuals, enhanced audio, and a revitalized approach to classic zombie arcade gameplay.

Initially released in 1998 on Sega arcade machines, The House of the Dead 2 featured on-rails shooting mechanics and hordes of gruesome zombies. A highly influential FPS horror game in its time, it's widely considered an iconic arcade release and a cornerstone of the zombie genre. While previously ported to consoles such as the Sega Dreamcast, original Xbox, and Nintendo Wii, this remake promises substantial changes.

The official announcement trailer showcases the modern enhancements to this classic rail shooter. Players once again assume the role of a secret agent battling undead hordes to prevent a catastrophic outbreak. The House of the Dead 2: Remake boasts overhauled graphics, remastered music, and expanded environments. Players can choose between single-player and co-op modes. Further gameplay options include multiple game modes (Classic Campaign and Boss Mode), branching storylines, and multiple endings.

Launching on Nintendo Switch, PC (GOG and Steam), PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, The House of the Dead 2: Remake is poised to captivate both new and seasoned players. The high-energy soundtrack, visceral action, and combo system deliver an authentic retro feel, complemented by modern graphics and an improved heads-up display (HUD). Join the zombie fight when The House of the Dead 2: Remake arrives on all major platforms in Spring 2025.

The recent resurgence of classic horror games, including Resident Evil remakes and the Clock Tower remaster, sets the stage for this exciting revival. Fans of zombie horror should eagerly await further updates on The House of the Dead 2: Remake and other retro gaming revivals.
