Sep 30, 2017Resident Evil: Revelations is a faithful game to the original Resident Evil concept. It's has some downs about poor controls. However, it is a fun game to play.
-
Sep 18, 2017Well worth a look for those who may have skipped its initial release after becoming disenfranchised with the direction the series was taking.
-
Oct 3, 2017Resident Evil Revelations offers a good port of the original game. The game now has a solid 1080p/60fps and some bonuses in Raid mode. That being said, if you have already played it, the purchase is highly dispensable.
-
Sep 5, 2017This remastered version is a pure porting from the PC and runs at 1080p/60 without any hesitation. Revelations was an "average" RE title 5 years ago, and still it is today: for 20 bucks it could be a good deal for some of you who didn't play the original version.
-
Sep 4, 2017Resident Evil Revelations is played better than never before on PS4 and Xbox One through a better resolution and fluency. However, some graphical limitations of the Nintendo 3DS - like some textures, illumination or foggy environments - have not been fixed.
-
Sep 1, 2017A nice remastered version of a good old survival horror game, but without major differences from the other versions, apart from some little visual upgrades.
-
Aug 30, 2017If you've played other versions you won't find major differences here apart from some visual upgrades, but it holds up pretty well, and it still offers a good balance between the classic and the modern Resident Evil games.
-
Aug 29, 2017Neither the most complete nor the best of remasters, but whoever already played Revelations will find a game that successfully combines survival horror and action in order to offer a game with a solo mode that runs like a TV show, and an enjoyable bonus in the shape of Raid Mode.

Aug 29, 2017This isn’t an inherently bad game by any stretch of the imagination; it’s just not one that managed to withstand the test of time, no matter how much Capcom tries to polish it up. And if you’re a new player who adored Resident Evil 7 and you’re wondering if this little spin-off game is worth jumping into, I’d say have a go with Revelations 2, see how you feel about it, and then take things from there.
-
Sep 4, 2017The result is a slightly flat look, which makes it difficult to welcome Capcom's work enthusiastically. Recommended only to those who had missed the old releases.
-
Sep 13, 2017If you’re a newcomer to Resident Evil, this is not the place to start. Go with this year’s Resident Evil 7 if you’re looking for something innovative, modern and terrifying. If pure action is what you’re after, the remastered editions of Resident Evil 4 and 5 are much easier recommendations.
-
Aug 29, 2017My hang-ups with the aiming aside, the PlayStation 4 version of Resident Evil Revelations is the best version of the survival horror outing. The problem is that it’s 2017. It’s been over five years since Revelations (or I guess it was technically “Revelaitons” then) released on Nintendo 3DS, and what was once a technical marvel is an outdated-looking title on current consoles.
-
Sep 9, 2017To be honest, buying Resident Evil Revelations in 2017 on PS4 or Xbox One is a waste of money. The remaster work is incredibly light, leaving the game with appalling graphics and a very old-fashioned gameplay.
-
Aug 29, 2017Resident Evil Revelations is a fun and captivating game that now offers its best graphics and more content than ever. However, its modest origins as a 3DS game imposes certain gameplay limitations that puts it below everything that has come afterwards, relegating it to a filler status among the catalogue of Resident Evil titles available on current platform.
-
Aug 29, 2017Resident Evil Revelations was a step in the right direction five years ago, but has since worn out its welcome. The game is enjoyable and features a undeniably spooky atmosphere, but at the end of the day, it's a five year old 3DS game on its third life.
-
Sep 6, 2017The PlayStation 4 version of Resident Evil: Revelations is the definitive version, but that doesn’t carry as much weight as it would have a few years ago. We do think the campaign is still worth a playthrough, but with clunky controls, a graphical presentation that’s showing its age, and an inferior raid mode, it’s hard to recommend a voyage on this ship to anyone but newcomers.
-
Aug 31, 2017I can only recommend Resident Evil: Revelations to die-hard fans who missed the game on its initial release, or those who just want to experience every chapter of Resident Evil lore. Whilst the game commits no specific new crime, it is a lazily-handeld port of a title that doesn't hold up well to big-screen modern scrutiny, with the ultimate revelation being, how right Capcom were to steer the course of the series in an entirely new direction.
-
Aug 29, 2017Although Resident Evil: Revelations remains a great game in its own right, it’s hard to recommend this HD (HD-er?) version to even staunch loyalists of Capcom’s fright fest, especially if they picked up the home console release in the last hardware generation. The exception would be those who really loved Raid, as the new Chaos mode might prove reason enough to revisit. Instead, this is probably best suited to those who’ve never played Revelations before, or who came to Resident Evil off the back of Resi 7 and are curious about the series’ history. Even if you fall into that camp, unless you’re a one format gamer, holding out for the Switch release seems wise.

Sep 2, 2022A bad combat without any weight, a decent atmosphere and a lackluster story. Give it a try if you want but not necessary for the series as a whole.
