Resident Evil: Revelations 2 doesn’t aim to reinvent the franchise—it aims to refocus it. After the bloated chaos of Resident Evil 6, this follow-up to the first Revelations installment dials things back to what survival horror does best: tight corridors, limited resources, creeping dread, and a lingering sense of unease. It’s not perfect, but it’s a confident and compelling chapter that captures the spirit of classic RE with a modern twist. The game is structured episodically (four main episodes, plus two bonus chapters), with the narrative split between two pairs: Claire Redfield and Moira Burton, and Barry Burton and Natalia, a mysterious young girl. Claire and Moira’s timeline shows their immediate struggle to survive on a grim island facility, while Barry arrives six months later to unravel what happened. The storytelling is effective, even if it leans a bit into B-movie territory. Themes of trauma, trust, and transformation run throughout, and the dual timeline structure keeps the suspense alive. Moira and Natalia, new additions to the cast, offer fresh dynamics—and Barry’s return is a treat for long-time fans. At its core, Revelations 2 blends traditional RE tension with modernized, over-the-shoulder gunplay. Inventory management, crafting, and puzzle-solving make a welcome return, and resource scarcity means every bullet counts—especially in higher difficulties. What sets this game apart is its partner system. Whether you’re playing solo (with AI) or in split-screen co-op, each character has unique abilities: -Moira uses a flashlight to find hidden items and a crowbar to open doors or finish off enemies. -Natalia can sense monsters through walls and point out weak spots. This asymmetry adds tactical depth and makes co-op more than just “two people with guns.” While AI companions aren’t flawless, they rarely ruin the experience. Combat feels weighty and responsive, with a mix of stealth, panic, and strategic planning—particularly during boss fights and tense ambushes. Visually, Revelations 2 trades glossy production for grungy, grounded environments. Think rusty prisons, shadowy labs, and rotting woods. The lighting is intentionally sparse, adding to the tension without relying too heavily on jump scares. The monster designs are grotesque, even if they don’t reach the iconic status of past enemies like Lickers or Hunters. The sound design does a lot of heavy lifting—creaks in the distance, growling in the dark, and unsettling whispers help build unease. The music stays minimal, letting silence and ambient sounds create suspense. Beyond the main story, Revelations 2 includes Raid Mode, a fast-paced, arcade-style shooter with unlockable characters, levels, and loot. It’s surprisingly addictive and offers tons of replayability. Whether solo or online, it feels like a fun reward for players who want to keep engaging after the main campaign ends. Multiple endings based on player choices also incentivize replaying certain chapters, and bonus episodes add extra lore and character insight. Resident Evil: Revelations 2 doesn’t try to be a blockbuster—it tries to be smart. And it mostly succeeds. Its tighter focus, clever co-op mechanics, and return to horror fundamentals make it one of the stronger entries in the modern RE lineup. It’s not as flashy as Resident Evil 7 or as iconic as RE4, but it’s a solid, moody ride that reminds you what made this series a legend in the first place. A gritty, suspenseful survival horror with great pacing, memorable characters, and smart co-op mechanics. It may not be the scariest or most polished entry, but it earns its place in the RE canon. Pros: -Strong atmosphere and survival tension -Clever partner mechanics and co-op play -Raid Mode is a blast and adds value -Barry Burton is back, baby Cons: -Visuals feel dated in spots -Some enemy designs are forgettable -AI companions can occasionally be clunky Rating: 8/10

This might be a controversial take, but I think raid mode is the best reason to get this game. The skill and weapon upgrade systems work much better there, where they're vastly expanded upon—not to mention it's actually quite a fun arcade mode overall. It's a shame that you need to play through the campaign to unlock some characters and costumes, but if you're not interested in them you can just play raid mode and never touch the campaign. I wish Capcom hadn't forgotten about the Revelations series. Maybe then we'd have a third iteration of raid mode that has the best aspects of this and the first one while avoiding their downsides. Heck, I'd buy raid mode as a standalone game! Of all the failed spin-off experiments Capcom threw at Resident Evil, I think a standalone version of raid mode had everything to succeed where all other multiplayer spin-offs failed. The deluxe edition goes on sale often for next to nothing. Definitely worth getting if only for raid mode.

This game is definitely one of those underrated gems.. The story might be a lil bit predictable, but the atmosphere really pulls you in... The characters are fun (especially natalia), and the co-op gameplay is like cherry on a cake... While it might not get as much love as other entries in the series, but it's definitely worth checking out if you're into creepy survival horror or retro games...

Resident Evil Revelations 2 was well done and I loved that they kept the original theme of resident evil which was pure horror. The aesthetic of this game is just sooo good and the storyline is incredibly captivating but what sucks is that they left it on a cliffhanger but who knows, we might get a resident evil revelations 3 in the future who knows :D. Overall 10/10 game. p.s I still believe RE: Revelations 1 was better, especially raid mode. RE-EDIT : After spending 100 hours in this game, i can easily say that this game is 10x better than revelations 1. The aesthetic of the game and the horro of it is on point! and as for raid mode, revelations 2's raid mode is INFINITELY better than revelations 1 and a lot more fun
