The Escapist: "Darkstalkers Resurrection isn't just a re-release of two classic fighting games, it also stands as the best example to date of how to revive games from the 1990s on modern gaming hardware."

GameDynamo - "At first glance, Darkstalkers Resurrection looks like another "me too" fighting game from the 90s. Take a few arch-types of horror movies, add in Street Fighter's 6 button control setup, and you aren't too far off from what you have here, but you've only touched the surface. The two games here play like a hybrid of the insanity of Marvel vs. Capcom with the options available in the Street Fighter Alpha series"

Machinima: "The Darkstalkers series is criminally overlooked when discussing the best 2D fighting games. Resurrection attempts to fix this misconception."

Ken McKown writes: I can still remember the original EGM cover on which I first discovered Jon Talbain and company. As the monster movie equivalent of Street Fighter, Darkstalkers has always been a franchise near and dear to my heart. Laying dormant for so long has only made my love of the series grow, so much that I recently spent ample time playing the PSP iteration on my Vita, just because I needed my Hsien-Ko fix.

James Dahl from PlayStation Euphoria writes: Capcom has created its share of interesting and unique fighting games throughout the years, some of which have continued to appeal to its fans in new ways, while maintaining to hold onto the true essence of why we love fighting games so much. Well, one series that led to quite a few innovations in the genre is one called Darkstalkers.

DarkStalkers Resurrection is a competent re-release and upgrade to a storied, and somewhat neglected franchise. The only real let-down is the lack of the sheer shine of a new title - but, the wait for fans is over, in some sense of the word. It may be something we've played upwards of 15 years ago - but for Morrigan junkies, it's better than nothing.

Recognize everybody? You should. You've seen them all before.

Darkstalkers is a really underappreciated series. Sure, it's getting some of its due in this re-release of Night Warriors and DS3 at the moment, and that's great, but there's something special about this series that's been lost over the years. And the reason for that is because many of the characters have transferred into other games. The crossover from the Darkstalkers universe into many of Capcom's other, more prominent fighting games—like Puzzle Fighter and Marvel vs. Capcom, to name a few—has left enough gamers wondering where so many of these characters came from, a la the mass exodus from SNK's titles to the King of Fighters franchise.
