About the game

Resident Evil Outbreak File #2 cover art

Resident Evil Outbreak File #2 is a survival-horror game released exclusively for the PlayStation 2 and a sequel to Resident Evil Outbreak, which was originally envisioned as a much larger game before being cut into multiple releases. The same eight characters from the first title return with similar abilities, and the game takes place once again in a zombie-run Raccoon City. The new game has several new scenarios and boasts new gameplay developments for the Resident Evil series. Loading times have been reduced and while the previous Outbreak was on-line enabled in the US, this game is the first on-line Resident Evil game in Europe. The locals featured in this game include both the familiar (The Raccoon Police Department) and the exotic (A mutated jungle at mid-day) ones. The game boasts a hefty amount of unlockable material such as artworks, notes, trivia, and character costumes. The game is backwards compatible with your save file from Resident Evil Outbreak, meaning that you can take your unlocked content to this new setting.

About this project

The codebase is written for two platforms at once: the PS2 version serves as the reference, and Windows implementations live in their own folder for PC compatibility. Functions are tagged with categories and a completion status in their comments, which is how the project tracks progress. There is no tagged release; the port is built from source.

FAQ

Is Resident Evil Outbreak File #2 playable on PC?

Not yet. REOF2's Windows port is In Progress and boots to the main menu with video, audio and input; gameplay is not reached.

Is REOF2 a recompilation?

No. It is a decompilation: the game binary was extracted into C with automated tooling, and the Windows port is built from that source.

Does Recompedia provide the game, ROM or BIOS?

No. Recompedia does not host or link to ROMs, ISOs, BIOS files or game assets. REOF2 ships no game code or data either; it needs a disc image made from a copy of the game you own.
