About

Resident Evil Code: Veronica X is a port of the original game with additional content comprised of improved graphics along with an extra nine minutes of cutscenes. The character Steve had his hairstyle changed to have a noticeable fringe, and no longer proudly shows his forehead. This change was made to all cutscenes that feature him, as well as to the family photograph he carries with him. Apart from these changes, the game is almost the same as the original one.

What players say

A tense, atmospheric survival horror entry with eerie sound design, limited ammo, and a punishing save system that keep players constantly on edge. Regarded by many fans as one of the series' best, though the visuals had aged by this PS2 port.
