Resident Evil Revelations 2 is a solid RE game. After 6, love it or hate it, you can't deny that this game is a great pallet cleanser. Action got toned way down in favour of actual tension and horror. There were a few bits where I was a little spooked and that's pretty good in my book. At least, coming off 6 it's really good.

Barry Burton is BACK and spouting all of his meme lines again. So is Claire but I thought she was kind of boring here. Don't get me wrong, I love Claire as a character and I'm happy to see her back but she doesn't really do much. Feels like you could replace her with another protagonist and nothing would change.

I played solo and had a good time. I'm sure it would be better co-op but hey, who has friends?

Overall a very solid game and I definitely prefer it to Revelations 1.
