    As it stands, these are both really solid ports of some pretty fun video games from the last generation brought to portable life on the Switch. If you’re in the market for more Resident Evil on the go, then you’ll likely want to pick both up when you have a chance.

    A game that leaves the surival horror in the background and focuses on fighting. It shines in its multiplayer section but fails to give us a more frightening story.

I played the original on the X360 and as well as the PS4 version. I enjoyed the console versions very much, and I still feel like RE6 is underrated. Anyways, when I played through Leon's Campaign, I would be in school, chilling in my first period secretly playing with my backpack covering my switch. The experience is very much solid on the Switch. I was more impressed on how well it ran and how the framerate in my experience was very consistent. No bad frame pacing or anything. This is well worth your money. Yeah the story can be cringey, BUT considering this is a handheld version that gives you access to multiple campaigns, I say its worth your money. There is plenty of content to keep you busy, unllike *cough*RE3 Remastered*cough*, excuse me. Overall, a good buy for your switch if you're a fan of the game, or even as a new entry into the series. ps. *anyone else get scared in the cemetary area? xd* Full Review »

The game is great and gives a variety of campaigns to choose from, The story and the enemies are completely different in each campaign. Anyone who wants to start the game I suggest to begin with Chris campaign. Full Review »
