Imagination takes a backseat in Revelations 2, but great co-op and an intriguing story pumps blood through its veins.

69 / 100

A so-so start to this new series. The multiple character stuff is interesting, but weak shooting and bland environments let it down.

8 / 10

A successful start to the first episodic Resident Evil, with some genuinely inventive co-op features and the most effective scares the series has seen in years.

7 / 10

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 gets off to a rough start with poor writing and safe design choices, but it's redeemed by strong doses of tension during the second act.
