One of the best games released so far this year is already on sale--Resident Evil 2, Capcom's remake of the horror classic--is selling for just $40 (33% off). Resident Evil 2 released on January 25, less than three months ago, so this is an excellent time to pick up the game for Xbox One or PS4 if you haven't already.

　　It's unclear how long this $20-off discount for PS4 will last at Amazon, and the deal has already ended at Best Buy, the Microsoft Store, and the PlayStation Store. GameSpot's deal is part of its massive spring sale going on right now, and that offer will end April 13. So if you're interested in playing Resident Evil 2, this might be the cheapest time to buy it for a while.

"The remake is an impressive game for the fact that it goes all-in on the pure survival horror experience, confidently embracing its horrifying tone and rarely letting up until the story's conclusion," he wrote. "Though Resident Evil 2 has its roots firmly in the past, it reworks the familiar horrors into something that feels brand new and all its own."
