Resident Evil Requiem: Resident Evil Is An Action Series
Resident Evil is now a majority action series, and it is time survival horror fans acknowledged it.
In this review of Resident Evil Requiem, I break down how the series has shifted from its survival horror roots into a more action focused franchise. Capcom attempts a hybrid approach with Grace and Leon, blending survival horror and action horror into one game.
Grace’s sections deliver some of the best survival horror since Resident Evil 2 Remake, with tense gameplay, dynamic enemies, and strong level design. Leon’s sections, however, at times felt bland, repetitive, and boring.
