Quick guide to learn how the dodge system works in RE2.

The Properly Way To Dodge the Attacks

The RE2 dodging system is a bit hidden, but it directly came from the original game released in the 1998.

First of all, you don't have to rush in the right and left side of an enemy. To dodge the attack, you must to wait the initial frames of the attack animation, and only at that time, the game opens the dodge door. Standing in front of an anemy, as soon as he rushes to attack you, you must run in the opposite direction of the attack. Doing this, you dodge the attack and the enemy enters in a sleep state of 1 - 2 seconds before attack again. So, wait for the attack and as soon as it starts, just run behind you. If yuo do it correcly, you will clearely notice the faster run animation of Leon or Clair.
