Metro : It started less than a month ago, but by the end of this week all of Resident Evil Revelations 2s four episodic downloads will be out along with the retail version collecting them all (and a few extras). Games like Life Is Strange have taken longer than that to release their second episode, but in our review of Episode 1 we already expressed our confusion as to why Cacpom is releasing the game like this. Even now, at the end, were none the wiser, but what we do know is that this is the best Resident Evil since number 4.

Resident Evil is inching closer to its roots. As the series continued to move towards more action heavy ideals, the original Revelations gave Capcom the opportunity to freely experiment with the formula. The result was an added dose of the franchise's horror traditions. Revelations 2 further embraces this direction by emphasizing survival-horror and offering a meaningful story to the decades long continuity.

Adam Cook: "The shorter finale isnt a new thing with episodic games, but there are a few unexplained elements that Id liked to have seen fleshed out, and the nature of the ending (which I obviously wont spoil here) may be considered a cop-out. Revelations 2 clocks in at around ten hours all told (not including Raid Mode), but I can honestly say I had fun for almost all of the time spent with it. Itll be interesting to see if Capcom stick with this model for the game, because I truly feel like it has worked. As a long time Resi fan, Revelations 2 gets a big thumbs up."

Hardcore Gamer: "For the last month, Capcom has been releasing Resident Evil Revelations 2 in an episodic format: Penal Colony, Contemplation, Judgment and Metamorphosis. While the series started off a little slow, it grew into something more, containing a well-paced and highly entertaining adventure at a minimal cost. The story revolved around fan favorites Claire Redfield and Barry Burton as theyre thrown into yet another unfortunate set of events, becoming involved in a plot to potentially spread a new form of BOWs around the world. With the concluding release finally out, were here to take a look at the game as a whole and see how it holds up."

Hardcore Gamer: "So its come to this. Capcoms episodic experience with their most popular franchise is on its final stretch, and what a way to go out. Claire and Moira had easily their best episode last week, focusing on various puzzles within the course of a lengthy timer, not to mention the well-deserved betrayal and treachery in the story. Barry on the other hand had a slow start, but quickly became exciting again once he and Natalia reached the mining facility. With the revelation itself still looming in the background and so many questions being unanswered, Revelations 2 finalizes things perfectly."

The final episode in Resident Evil Revelations 2 has dropped; here's our verdict.

Added: 17.03.2015 7:01 | 1 views | 0 comments

Resident Evil: Revelations 2's tale is coming to an end, and with it, your stint on an island overrun with biological monstrosities. You've watched the crew escape a prison, clear a village of monsters, and infiltrate a tower filled with evil over the course of three episodes, and it's been a good ride overall, even if it's fallen off of the rails from time to time.

Episode Four begins as Claire and Moira finally close in on the person who's responsible for their horrible predicament, a meeting that's been building up since you awoke in a jail cell at the beginning of Episode One. It doesn't take long to find the so called Overseer, whom you meet just a few minutes after Episode Four starts. "We meet at last," she says, but no sooner does your meeting come to an end. Quickly, you have to sprint your way to safety as the tower collapses around you during a self-destruct sequence. Concrete and metal fall dangerously close as you race to the bottom, and apart from a few enemies--the tiresome invisible mutants from Episodes Two and Three--there's isn't much standing in your way except fate, as it turns out.

The second ending is definitely the preferred one, but if you don't see it the first time through, be prepared to jump back to Episode Three, as it's an event there that determines how the ending plays out in Episode Four. Apart from the game telling you that you've earned the "worst" possible outcome, you might not realize that there's another ending, and frankly, it took crowdsourcing opinions to discover how to go about triggering it. What's frustrating is that, in that pivotal moment during Episode Three, you're expected to do something that you've been taught a particular character is incapable of doing. If you follow the rules, you'll know that you're missing out on the real ending when the game tells you, but it would have been so much better if the real ending were the only one.

The final episode of Revelations 2 has its problems, especially when it pretends that you can decide Claire and Moira's fate. However, Barry's portion offers just enough excellent gunplay and tense exploration to distract you from that misstep, all before sending you to a great final boss fight, and hopefully the good ending. Revelations 2 doesn't get a pass for obscuring the path to its most satisfying conclusion, but it gets credit for the excitement it ultimately delivers in the true end of this journey and the flicker of the next one creeping in its shadow.
