About Resident Evil: Revelations 2
Capcom released Resident Evil: Revelations 2 on February 24, 2015, bringing the episodic survival horror series to retail and digital storefronts. This title targets PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PC, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation Vita players. The story splits between two distinct narratives that run parallel throughout four separate episodes. It marks a return to stricter survival horror mechanics after the more action-focused entries like Resident Evil 5 and 6. You manage limited resources while exploring creepy environments filled with threats. The game offers single player campaigns alongside co-op modes where you team up with another person to tackle the content together.
Gameplay
You control characters who must scavenge for ammo and health items while avoiding enemies rather than fighting every encounter head on. Stealth sections require you to hide behind cover or stay silent to bypass patrols. The combat feels weighty, forcing you to aim carefully since ammunition is scarce. Each episode shifts focus between two different storylines that eventually converge. You can play these segments alone or pair up in split screen or online co-op modes. The controls are tight, allowing for quick vaults and precise shooting during tense moments. Managing inventory becomes a constant struggle as you move through dark corridors. Enemies appear suddenly, demanding fast reflexes and strategic use of your limited firepower.
What Players Think
The PlayPile community rates this title with an IGDB score of 72.4 out of 100 based on 230 ratings. Players describe the overall vibe as creepy, a mood confirmed by two specific votes in our database. Average playtime sits around 12 hours for a full completion run across all four episodes. Review snippets highlight the return to horror roots compared to previous entries. Completion rates suggest most players finish the main story but rarely engage with side content. The community appreciates the dual narrative structure and the increased emphasis on stealth mechanics over pure shooting. Some users note that co-op play enhances the tension significantly during the later episodes.
PlayPile's Take
This game is worth your time if you prefer resource management over constant gunfights. At a standard price point, it offers solid value for fans of the franchise who want more atmosphere. The achievement list includes challenges for completing episodes without taking damage or finishing specific chapters. You should play this if you enjoy slow-paced tension and don't mind managing scarce supplies. The co-op mode adds variety but does not fix the pacing issues in the middle chapters. Skip this only if you want a fast action shooter with unlimited ammo.
