Resident Evil has always struggled with multiplayer. Many entries have been attempted, but few have been successful. Resident Evil 5 took the series further away from its horror roots and delved deeper into the action genre, but it did so with an amazing co-op campaign. Assuming you’re playing with a friend instead of the terrible AI, it’s been a lot of fun doing machine gun and boulder he punches through this ridiculous campaign. I wouldn’t recommend it as a traditional Resident Evil experience, but it’s a great time with your buddy. — Tate Feebing

9. Resident Evil 4 VR
Resident Evil 4 is one of the most important games in history. It’s also one of the most ported games in the series. Resident Evil 4 VR remains his 2005 released RE4 game, but with new (albeit VR exclusive) additions, it deserves a spot on this list.
Resident Evil 4 VR wasn’t for media, but it excels at it. RE4 wasn’t inherently a scary game, but the VR variant adds a level of tension and suspense you don’t get in the non-VR version. So many different play options to accommodate different VR play styles and the ability to wield two weapons, shoot two-handed weapons with one weapon, or actually move and not stay in one place. The fact that you can do that is some welcome change. Exploring RE4 in virtual reality is a true breath of fresh air.
Resident Evil 4 VR has been rebuilt from the ground up and plays almost like a completely new game. Even if the Separate Ways story mode is gone, the addition of Mercenaries mode and unlockable weapons and items (including the classic Chicago Typewriter) in post-launch updates make RE 4 VR more valuable and rewarding for RE The claim that 4 VR is one has been strengthened. It’s his RE4 port by far. — Taylor Lyles

8. Resident Evil
The original Resident Evil may not be the prettiest, most intuitive, best version of Resident Evil, but how important the original title was to not only Resident Evil as a series, but survival horror games as a whole. It cannot be denied that there is. From unintentionally crappy dialogue, very bad voice acting, and a quirky but iconic score, the original Resident Evil remains a must-play title that still holds up well to various remakes, remasters, and sequels. is one of
The graphics may not look as good as the GameCube remake, and the short campaign is a bit of a pain. But its overall charm and wildly ambitious presentation make playing this not just an itchy, delicious experience, but a memorable trip to the roots of one of the most prolific survival-horror franchises. increase. — Nick Mylett
7. Resident Evil 3: Nemesis
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis is one of the most unique games in the series. Introduced many new gameplay elements that move the series forward. RE3 was the first game to feature ammo crafting, a mechanic that continues to expand throughout the series. We also explored branching story paths with quick-time events that forced players to choose from a variety of options, making each playthrough feel unique.
Its crowning achievement, however, was the introduction of Nemesis, perhaps the most revered foe in the entire series. and tenacity, Nemesis remains a fan favorite. — Tate Feebing

6. Resident Evil 7 Resident Evil
How do you reinvent a franchise that has already been reinvented several times? Well, it does what games like Metroid, Fallout, and Warhammer have done before. In other words, jump to first-person view. Resident Evil VII takes the series’ signature survival-horror framework to new perspectives, and surprisingly little is lost along the way.
Admittedly, the third act is a bit lacking and the enemy variety is low, but other than that, Resident Evil VII’s setting, characters, puzzles, resource management, and story are just as fun and ambitious as some of the best games. So, it’s creepy. series. Oh, and if you have a compatible VR headset, playing a campaign like that makes him one of the most tense and terrifying experiences the franchise has ever offered. — Brian Altano

5. Resident Evil Village
Resident Evil Village traded VII’s claustrophobia, padded lengths, and Texas chainsaw-like family for wholesome action, camping, and a return to settings reminiscent of Resident Evil 4. Lady D, on the other hand, certainly dominated marketing collateral and memes. In Generation, she occupies only a fraction of her playing time. Resident Evil Village has others, such as House Benevient (who is her in one of the most terrifying sequences in the Resident Evil games) and new archetypal enemies (Gothic his creatures such as werewolves and vampires replace zombies). There are also many
With charismatic villains, a highly replayable storyline, great action, and fantastic locations, the latest Resident Evil game proves the series isn’t a shambling corpse. — Ronnie Barrier

4. Resident Evil 2
The original Resident Evil is one of the most important games in history. But Resident Evil 2 is just as important, if not more, than its predecessor. The original Resident Evil 2 set a precedent for much of what has come to be expected in the typical Resident Evil formula. This includes playing the main his campaign with multiple characters from branching paths. These characters have their own stories that make those experiences stand out (with better replayability along the way).
The remake is a more accessible (and approachable) way to experience Leon and Claire’s hellish night in Raccoon City, and it’s arguably better, but the original Resident Evil 2 still lacks It offers a lot of features, charms, and horrors worth experiencing. once in a lifetime. — Taylor Lyles

3. Resident Evil (Remake)
If there’s one game in the series that has perfected the tank control playstyle, it’s the 2002 remake of the original Resident Evil, a full-fledged Resident Evil before transitioning to 3rd and 1st person perspectives. It’s a masterpiece in terms of experience.
Not only does the remake ditch the cheesiness found in the original game and make it darker and more serious, it also adds a lot of new content not available in the original game, such as the Lisa Trevor subplot. did. More importantly, Resident Evil Remake takes a page from the original Resident Evil 2 handbook and makes Spencer a game that keeps you on the edge of your seat every corner, thanks to the vibe and vibe of his mansion. Includes new enemies called Crimson Heads. — Taylor Lyles

2. Resident Evil 2 Remake
Resident Evil VII returned the series to its horror roots, but Resident Evil 2 Remake perfected it. Absolutely gorgeous to look at and containing some of the best pacing of the series to date, RE2R features many of the latest’s best features such as ammo crafting, over-the-shoulder cameras and expandable inventory slots. So it’s updated with all the best parts of the classic Resident Evil game for beginners. betray the Designed with the utmost care and intention. Easter eggs are scattered all over the station, with so many updates that fit so perfectly you forget they were there in the original.
Of course, the police move between the floors of the department by stairs instead of ladders, just like in the original. Perhaps its best credit was the organic way Mr. X follows you around the police station. His presence alone prevents additional playthroughs from repeating and sustaining the terror. — Tate Feebing

1. Resident Evil 4
The Resident Evil series has changed perspectives and genres a lot, but none has made such a groundbreaking leap as Resident Evil 4. Resident Evil has evolved from a survival horror game with locked camera angles to third-person survival horror action with tank controls. The game was great. Resident Evil 4 was and still is an incredibly near-perfect video game. The campaign is massive, packed with huge bosses, epic setpieces, and locales, matched only by precise and flawless gameplay that provides players with tons of weaponry and action available against hordes of fearsome enemies. increase.
There weren’t many games like this at the time. Not only did it change the course of survival horror games forever, but it also inspired the third-person action game genre and, ultimately, Resident Evil Village. Modern players approaching it for the first time today may be put off a bit by the lack of run-and-gun gameplay, but if you can adapt to the stop-and-shoot (and kicks, grenades, knives, and suplexes) style, the action, They’re rewarded with one of the best single-player campaigns to ever grace a video game. — Brian Altano
