The reviews generally convey a strong appreciation for the horror-action balance with Grace and Leon's distinctive gameplay styles, supported by excellent visuals and sound design. However, there is notable criticism of the storytelling, particularly its reliance on nostalgia and retcons. While most players enjoyed Leon's segments, which are full of exciting combat mechanics, the shift between gameplay styles with Grace's sections provided a balance that didn't always land favorably for all. Some technical issues were reported, affecting the overall smoothness of the experience.

Positive Points

  • The game blends horror and action seamlessly with dual protagonists, allowing for a variety of gameplay experiences that are well-executed and engaging.
  • Grace Ashcroft is introduced as a strong new protagonist with well-developed character motivations, and her segments provide intense survival horror experiences reminiscent of early Resident Evil games.
  • Leon Kennedy's segments offer exciting, action-packed gameplay with engaging combat mechanics such as parrying and takedowns, reminiscent of Resident Evil 4.
  • High-quality visuals and sound design create a rich, atmospheric experience, enhancing both the horror and action elements.
  • The game provides excellent optimization for PC, running smoothly on various setups and even on lower-end computers.

    • Negative Points

  • The game's story, particularly in its second half, is seen as weaker and less coherent, with some players feeling it relies too heavily on nostalgia and retcons previous lore.
  • Some players feel the game's dual-protagonist structure leads to a lack of cohesion, with jarring switches between Leon's action-heavy gameplay and Grace's survival horror segments.
  • There are complaints about technical issues, primarily crashes during certain segments, which disrupt the gameplay experience.
  • The pacing of the game is criticized, with some sections dragging on too long or feeling repetitive.

    • Mixed Points

  • While the dual-protagonist structure adds variety, opinions are mixed about whether it effectively balances the gameplay styles without detracting from the narrative flow.
  • The game's nostalgic references and callbacks are both celebrated for enriching the lore and critiqued for overshadowing new content and originality.

    • Common Themes

  • The contrast between Grace's survival horror segments and Leon's action-driven gameplay was a standout feature for many players.
  • The integration of improved graphics and sound design significantly enhances the immersive experience.
  • The debate over the game's story cohesion and originality, particularly concerning its retcons and callbacks to previous lore.
