It always feels good to start afresh, especially when you think you’ve seen it all. I especially love games that give me such feelings. When I first heard of Resident Evil Re:Verse, I had to jump on the wagon. And as a fan of the Resident Evil Franchise, I was not disappointed. Resident Evil Re:Verse is a multiplayer third-person shooter game developed and published by Capcom, the Resident Evil franchise creator. The game is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC platforms, and was released in October 2022. The latest update to the game was in February 2023 which added new features and improvements. Resident Evil Reverse brings back our favorite characters, which is quite a relief.

The Game’s Story Takes You Down Memory Lane

The game story begins in the aftermath of a terrorist attack on the fictional world of Racoon City. The attack left a great impact on the city, which reveals the story of this game. As players, you can take on the role of each of the Resident Evil series legendary characters; Leon Kennedy, Jill Valentine, or Nemesis. In the game, these characters have been infected by a virus that gave them superpowers. The story is about survival, where players have to fend off the evil of other cast members in the game’s world who have been affected by a virus.

Resident Evil Re:Verse includes locations, enemies, and characters from previous Resident Evil games, such as the Spencer Mansion from Resident Evil 1 and the Raccoon City Police Department from Resident Evil 2. This attention to detail creates a sense of continuity that will be appreciated by fans of the series. In addition to the main story, the game also includes certain storylines that delve deeper into the backstory of each character. For example, Leon Kennedy’s storyline focuses on his experiences as a rookie cop during the events of Resident Evil 2. These storylines add an extra layer of depth to the game and make the characters more relatable and interesting.

The Multiplayer Modes Encourage Teamplay

One of the standout features of Resident Evil Re:Verse is the variety of multiplayer modes available. The game offers three main modes: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, and Domination. Each mode offers a different playstyle, with Deathmatch being a free for all, Team Deathmatch being a team-based battle, and Domination requiring players to capture and hold key points on the map. I found that each mode offered a unique and enjoyable experience, and the ability to play with up to six players made matches fast and exciting. The inclusion of different maps also kept the game fresh and interesting, preventing it from becoming repetitive.

Advanced Customization Levels in Play

Another feature that impressed me was the level of customization available for the characters. Players can choose from a variety of skins and weapon load-outs, allowing them to create a character that suits their playstyle. Additionally, players can unlock new skins and weapons by completing in-game challenges, adding an extra level of reward to gameplay. I enjoyed experimenting with different skins and load-outs and found that each one offered a different playstyle. The ability to customize characters also added an extra layer of personalization to the game, making it feel more like my own experience.

The Unlockables Add Depth and a Sense of Progression

The game also includes a variety of unlockables that are earned through completing challenges and progressing through the game. These unlockables include new characters, maps, and game modes, which add an extra level of depth and replayability to the game. I found that the unlockables added a sense of progression and accomplishment to the game, as I worked to unlock new characters and maps. The inclusion of new game modes also kept the game fresh and interesting, preventing it from becoming boring.

The Graphics Are Crazy, The Interface Is Just Too Good

The graphics in Resident Evil Re:Verse are top-notch, with detailed character models, environments, and special effects that add to the overall atmosphere of the game.

The main menu includes options for playing multiplayer modes, customizing characters, and accessing in-game challenges and rewards. I found that the controls were responsive and easy to learn, which made it simple to jump into the gameplay and start enjoying the game. Also, the in-game HUD (heads-up display) was clear, allowing me to focus on gameplay without distractions.
