    Winters' Expansion is a great addition to the base game. With an interesting but short story option and the phenomenal arcade Mercenaries mode, there is something for everyone. Sadly, though, the third-person viewpoint created issues, and the atmosphere was impacted as a consequence. However, it is still a great purchase and is worthy of your money and time.

    Shadow of Rose is a neat package with a solid campaign as well as new features for the original game. At $20 this is a solid pick-up. It was great revisiting the main game and the new content really fleshes out Rose’s role in this whole universe.

    Resident Evil Village: Shadows of Rose provides yet another compelling excuse to return to the gorgeous locations from the base game. With a tangible sense of heart and meaningful character development, this campaign expansion establishes Rose as a standout figure in the world of Resident Evil. This delicate story of growth and self-identification is viciously contrasted by psychological horror visuals that will unquestionably haunt players for quite some time.

    Despite one, maybe two, well-functioning Horror item(s) and Rose's powers adding a new way to progress, this DLC is only of interest to players who enjoyed the main title. A story with rose water that we would have liked much tastier...

    There’s a good multiplayer game somewhere within Resident Evil Re:Verse, but what’s here now is in desperate need of balance changes and more content. This third-person deathmatch is an interesting take on the franchise’s most iconic locations and characters, and it has some good ideas – especially giving you a second life as a fan-favorite monster. That can be fun in short bursts, but nearly every match made me wince at its unbalanced roster, lack of variety, and monetization methods that make better perks more easily available to those willing to spend cash. Resident Evil Re:Verse will need to grow into a lot more than this if it wants to become something better than a novelty for completionist Resident Evil fans.

    With the Winter’s family story finally concluding I can’t wait to see what comes next in Resident Evil 9.

    Shadows of Rose is great to check    With the Winter’s family story finally concluding I can’t wait to see what comes next in Resident Evil 9.

    Shadows of Rose is great to check out if you’re looking for some new Resident Evil content. If you don’t mind waiting, I’d recommend a sale or a price drop. While the reuse of the environments works well and is interesting enough to not feel boring the story left me unsatisfied. I was disappointed that there was no hint of what comes next but teeing up the next entry in the Resident Evil franchise through a DLC may not work for what Capcom has in store.    … Full Review »

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. I didn't like the plot of the DLC, for some reason the events were moved 16 years ahead, about some world of megalomecelia, about the daughter of Winters, who is unlikely to be remembered in the future, the DLC would be more interesting than the events during the main game.
    The ending was disappointing, it was the same as in the village, for some reason they returned this Miranda, who was killed, it would be better if this vile Canine was an antagonist. It would be better if this ethan finally died, the duke was shown little.    … Full Review »
