The reviews were mixed to positive and the setting, story, characters and the co-op gameplay were praised, but the graphics and some technical issues were criticized. The game was released for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Windows, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation Vita in 2015 and for Nintendo Switch in 2017 along with the port of the first Revelations. The story begins when Claire and her co-workers, including Barry Burton's daughter Moira Burton, are at a party in the headquarters of the NGO TerraSave, when they are attacked by unknown assailants and taken away to a deserted island in the Baltic Sea. The plot is set between the events of Resident Evil 5 and 6, in 2011. The first installment was released in February 2015. It is also the first Resident Evil game to not feature Alyson Court as the long time voice of Claire Redfield.

It marks the return of Claire Redfield as the protagonist, and the first time Barry Burton is a playable story character in the main series.

The game is a follow up to Resident Evil: Revelations and Resident Evil 5. We'll see if we can get a review code.īut if we haven't deterred you, the game is £24.99 / $29.99, or £22.49 / $26.99 for PlayStation Plus users.Resident Evil: Revelations 2 is an episodic survival horror video game developed and published by Capcom as part of the Resident Evil series. Unless you're a diehard Vita fan, it might be one to skip. Look, the game wasn't that great to begin with, and it sounds like this port not only strips its reason to exist (co-op play) but also plays and looks a little ropey. Plus, pretty much every costume and map from the console version is available - and those optional in-game purchases for respawn crystals or whatever. There is multiplayer in the score-attack raid mode. Sadly, the Vita version has no co-operative play in its four episode campaign, so you'll have to swap between the two characters by yourself. In one scenario, for example, Claire can shoot while Moira stuns enemies with a torch.

This is a port of the PS4 survival horror game, that has two characters - with different skill sets - working together to kill zombies.

The Vita version of Resident Evil Revelations 2 is out now on PlayStation Vita as a download, but early adopters are warning of choppy framerates and muddy textures, even after a 900MB patch.
