How it feels

A fast-paced co-op shooter with tense, gory action and quick-time event sequences set in an atmospheric African setting.

What players say

Players are split on Resident Evil 5: some love it as a co-op action romp with friends, others call the level design and boss fights tedious. The controls feel dated, professional mode is brutally punishing, and Wesker is a standout. Single-player gets much less praise than co-op, and the game can cause motion sickness.
