Resident Evil 6 Reviews: The series ‘is dead and increases the sense of nostalgia and sadness’

Harsh review.

Posted By | On 30th, Sep. 2012

Resident Evil 6 might be the most polarizing game in the franchises especially when reviews are concerned. The embargo lifts on October 1 but we have a few reviews that have absolutely destroyed the game. This latest one calls the series dead.

“And ‘no getting around it: Resident Evil is dead and this sixth chapter does nothing but increase the sense of nostalgia and sadness of those who still has fond memories of the early chapters of the series. Resident Evil 6 differs in fact, in an increasingly more pronounced, the definition of “survival horror” and also for judging what is actually really, which is a TPS, the title Capcom fails to propose an experience level, in line with that offered by the best exponents of the category,” reads the insight-factor review.

However, GameTrailers has given it an 8.8 and have praised the game along with a few other outlets. Once the embargo lifts, we will see a lot of reviews flood in and will get a better idea of what the critics think about Resident Evil 6.

In fact, our preview was a bit negative as well, but we will be posting our review soon, and hopefully it fares better there.
