“The gameplay is smooth, the combat feels good, and playing co-op makes it even better. There’s always something happening, so you never really get bored. But at the same time, that’s also its biggest problem — it…”
“So overhated !! Honestly very fun in both solo and coop, beautiful game overall, sometimes the controls can be a bit tricky but other than that it's really nice ! Probably my fav re game for the moment ^^ ( didn't play…”
“Have loads of hours on the xbox 360 version. This game is arguably the worst in the series, but honestly find playing it slightly more enjoyable than 8. It IS a decent game, maybe even would call it GOOD, but it is an…”

“This is legit the best Resident Evil game I've ever played in my life. The voice acting, mocap, camera work and chemistry between the characters (mostly Sherry and Jake), it's a piece of art. Ignore the LARPers hating…”
“Healthcare Hero Leon Kennedy and Resident Evil fan favorite Helena Harper star in an adrenaline pumping story that dares to ask the question what if your chinese girlfriend was actually a zombie terrorist? 0/10 no wesker”

“literally one of the worst pc ports ever. the control scheme was made by the devs slapping their balls on the keyboard. runs and looks like ass. also the game is straight up boring 90% of the time even with a friend”

“The only possible way I see someone enjoy this game is probably with infinite ammo and doing amateur difficulty, because this game is just straight up ♥♥♥♥ from ass. I only played Leon's and Chris's campaign, and I just…”

“The worst game in the series that's not a spin-off of some kind. Resident Evil 5 is a lot better if you are looking for an action focused or co-op Resident Evil game. There is nothing that Resident Evil 6 does that…”
“I love this game the same way I love the Twilight movies. Is it good? Not really. Is it fun, and was I laughing my ass off the entire time? Hell yeah. As long as you don't take a moment of this game seriously, it is a…”

“Leon's and Ada's campaigns are dumb fun, but playing through Chris's and Sherry's campaigns was actual torture, mainly because of the super annoying J'avo enemies and the stupid level design. Chris's campaign is a…”
“Hilariously bad, but not worth playing overall. Even with friends. Buggy, crashes a lot and you play for about 3 seconds between cutscenes and quick-time events.”

“I was thinking of skipping this one but oh boy the amount fun I had playing it. Believe me. This is one the best co-op game. (You can kick the crap out of your partner) The hate is so forced but I'm glad I've been seeing alot of people appreciating this and RE5 now.”

Diehard OG RE elitists, just hurry up and clown on me, like you do every RE review, because people apparently aren't allowed to disagree with your personal preferences. You guy's…”
— a player, Steam review · 42 hrs played“It's fun if you've got a friend tagging along; otherwise, it's awful by literally every single metric imaginable. Feels more like a kid smashing action figures together rather than a Resident Evil game.”
