About RESIDENT EVIL 3

About this game

Developed and published by CAPCOM.

This remaster of Resident Evil 3 allows players —  both new and old — to experience the classic game, but with better graphics and an added mode! 

Bigger and badder

Parasite-infected zombies, Drain Deimos, Hunters, and zombie dogs aren't the only thing you'll have to worry about in this entry, as Umbrella Corporation had an ace under their sleeve — the Nemesis! Help Jill Valentine and Carlos Oliveira — a U.B.C.S. mercenary — escape the hellish city!

Time is your friend 

Resident Evil 3 introduced a dodge mechanic, where if done at the right time, it will slow enemies down and give you an edge; this adds a whole new layer to the combat. Master it to decimate all sorts of enemies — from the Hunters to the zombie dogs!

New mode

Aside from better graphics, you'll also find a whole new game mode to enjoy with friends! Resident Evil Resistance is a new 1v4 online multiplayer mode where four survivors face off against a sinister Mastermind! Play as both sides and see who can be who.

Fantastic survival horror brought up to modern graphical standards. Some fun horror set pieces with a slight bit more of an action focus than RE2

RE3re is a very intense and immersive game, and also shorter but that does not mean its bad. (Assist Mode: 5 hours) If you want to complete all achievements 5 hours become 30. Overall, it's a good remake game.

As someone who has played a good amount of the resident evil franchise, I really like this game. I bought it after completing RE2 and feel like there is a good flow as the two games connect a little, something that isn't seen as clearly in the later games, definitely had fun with all the little jumpscares and love nemesis as the boss in this one.

This game may have received not so positive reviews for different reasons, but for me, it's a perfectly good game. Not as massive of a masterpiece as Resident Evil 2, but that's a very tough act to follow. Some things are actually improved or built on from the previous instalment, and the length of the game is perfectly fine. The replayability of it is what makes it even more fun. Unlocking items and weapons for upgrades makes the gameplay worth coming back to after you finish the story. And the voice acting in this one is exceptional, with smooth and stellar performances across the cast. Really enjoyed this one and will definitely play again at some point.

Lemme start this review by saying that I never grew up with the Resident Evil franchise. I came to it very late, like almost a whole year before Village was even released. With that in mind I decided to basically get all the games I could get my hands on and now I'm a proud owner of all the copies available on PC. Resi3 being the last one of all of them for me to buy. Graphically, this game is absolutely incredible. The neon signs, the lighting, the reflections (without RTX) make this game an absolute marvel to behold. At first, I almost couldn't even tell that the game actually took place in 1998, it all felt like it was the modern day. Gameplay wise, this game's much more fast paced than 2, 7 or 8, considering Jill's ability to dodge at the right time and shoot back John Wick style, or Carlos' ability to just deck enemies in the face with perfect timing. It feels like a speedrunner's paradise in most areas... But if you're not a speedrunner, I'm afraid the game's length is gonna disappoint you. My max run time was almost 7 hours. That might not sound too bad, but that was mostly because I spent likely an hour and a half trying to carry everything I could find to my safe box or solving a puzzle. For a normal player, this game might feel too short, but when you pay attention to the best things it does, it's a game you'd call Short and Sweet in that regard.
