Resident Evil Revelations 2 continues the side series's maintaining of the franchise's original design, but ultimately it is just that. It's lacklustre graphics and reliance on familiar game design led critics to agree that it was good, but simply a stop-gap between major releases.

Critic Reviews for Resident Evil: Revelations 2
Revelations 2 is an entertaining horror experience; let's hope Capcom aims a little higher next time.
'Resident Evil: Revelations 2' manages to make for an entertaining stopgap between core 'Resident Evil' entries by offering a fun-filled co-op, but lackluster graphics.
Revelations 2 is a great spin-off title, and manages the uncommon balancing act of making series fans happy while offering something new.
Resident Evil: Revelations 2's two teams of complementary characters make this a fantastic cooperative experience, whether you're playing through the story or the ever-engrossing Raid Mode.
Resident Evil Revelations 2 is intriguing with memorable battles, tense action, and surprise twists. Unfortunately, has some trouble keeping its momentum
Revelations 2 is the most self-assured Resident Evil game in a long time
Resident Evil Revelations 2 is an absolute surprise. While the first game was arguably the best spinoff the series has seen, Revelations 2 steps it up by offering a perfectly suited episodic format.
A mostly successful mix of the best of classic and modern era Resident Evil, with some of the most enjoyably unique co-op options of any recent game.
