The Resident Evil 3 remake is a great game while it lasts, though some fans may be disappointed by its short length and lack of scares.

Both the Nemesis and Raccoon City are massively underused in this disappointing step back for the series.

The Resident Evil 3 remake, like the original upon which it is based, is inferior to its predecessor.

Read full review

With a sublimely detailed world and breakneck survival-horror gameplay, Resident Evil 3 is just as good as its 2019 predecessor. More, please!

The source material already had its problems, but this disappointing remake manages to make Resident Evil 3 seem even less inspired than it did originally.

Another enjoyable reimagining for the Resident Evil series that nails the action but lacks depth.

This is another spectacular remake for the series, and Nemesis is an imposing enemy who relentlessly chases you throughout the game.
