    It's my favorite Resident Evil in years, and with a pricetag that's $20 cheaper than most retail releases, it offers up hundreds of hours of entertainment for those who are willing to dig into Raid Mode.

    While it maintains the flaws of the whole game such as graphics and physics, it provides a decent climax to the story and delivers the basis for a possible Resident Evil 7.

    Every gamer may be satisfied by this conclusion, but the good old Resident Evil fans will be especially convinced by it, as Resident Evil Revelations 2 definitely comes back to the roots here, and it does it well.

    Despite the lopsided breakup between the two campaigns, the conclusion of Revelations 2 will leave players satisfied with the hope of more bite-sized spin-offs in the series’ future.

    Episode 4: Metamorphosis has a lot resting on its rotting shoulders and, for the most part, it does an adequate job tying up all the loose ends.

    Capcom seems to have honed in on the fact that Resident Evil is, despite its previous posturing of drama, silly. It’s embraced its B-movie nature and ends up being a lot more entertaining because of it.

    Episode 4 confirms what we already knew about Resident Evil Revelations 2: that it's a success, mixing and matching elements of Resi's old and new – while throwing in Raid mode – to good effect.

    Revelations 2 doesn't get a pass for obscuring the path to its most satisfying conclusion, but it gets credit for the excitement it ultimately delivers in the true end of this journey and the flicker of the next one creeping in its shadow.

    Episode 4: Metamorphosis does a satisfactory job at tying up Resident Evil Revelations 2’s mysteries, yet it also presents us with the clunkiest gameplay and dialogue we’ve seen in this series. While the bonus episodes and robust Raid mode extend the life of Revelations 2 beyond the credits, I wish it had gone out with a slightly bigger bang.

    Overall, Episode 4 is a solid effort that just couldn't seem to find the traction it needed until it was too late.
