About this game
Jill Valentine and Parker Luciani begin a rescue mission aboard the Queen Zenobia, searching for Chris Redfield. You explore the ship, look for weapons and resources, and fight the bioweapons threatening the mission. Ammunition is limited, and the Genesis Scanner provides another tool: gathering combat data from bioweapons can yield helpful items. The campaign unfolds in chapters with opening recaps. Raid Mode gives the combat a separate progression structure. Complete stages to rank up and unlock weapons and parts, then combine equipment to shape your loadout. You can take on these stages alone or cooperate with a friend online. The Nintendo Switch version also supports motion aiming, adding a control option for handling weapons.
Collected in series
Resident Evil follows people trying to survive biological disasters, combining dangerous exploration, puzzles and encounters with hostile creatures. Each game finds a different balance between fear and action, with fixed, over-the-shoulder and first-person perspectives changing how you face the danger.

AI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
A resource-conscious horror adventure with a separate equipment-building mode for players who enjoy refining combat loadouts.
Limited ammunition and a scanner that yields supplies suggest a campaign built around preparation as well as shooting. Raid Mode shifts the emphasis toward completing stages and combining weapon parts, making it a promising fit if you enjoy developing equipment alongside your combat decisions.
Strengths
- Scanning bioweapons for useful items gives resource-minded players a reason to engage with enemies beyond firing at them.
- Raid Mode's weapon-and-part combinations provide a concrete equipment goal for players who enjoy revisiting combat challenges.
Weaknesses
- The ammunition constraint may frustrate players who prefer to shoot freely rather than account for supplies.
Who it is for: Players interested in a shipboard horror setup, careful resource use and a separate mode centered on stages and equipment customization.
Play notes: The cooperative play described here belongs to Raid Mode, with stage objectives and equipment progression separate from the rescue campaign.
