Critic Reviews for Resident Evil 3

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.

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

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.

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.

The remake of Resident Evil 3 makes a strong first impression, and its online companion game Resistance has some interesting ideas, but they both struggle to follow through.

It’s still worth playing, but Resident Evil 3 Remake is a step backwards for Capcom, coming off the back of one of the best games of last year. It’s gorgeous to look at, the jump scares will get you, and it’s like stepping into a comfy pair of slippers. But even though your feet are cosy, it never feels like home.
