10 Best Resident Evil Games You Didn't Play
5. Resident Evil Resistance
There are some people who believe that a horror series like Resident Evil should never go multiplayer, and that’s valid, but at the same time the best selling entry in the series for over a decade was Resident Evil 5 which first introduced cooperative play .
Launching off the success of other 4v1 multiplayer experiences such as Dead By Daylight, Resident Evil Resistance makes some pretty clever tweaks to the formula. One player, taking the role of a Mastermind, watches the four survivors navigate tight corners as they fulfil objectives to move through the game’s three stages.
They can dump traps and B.O.W.s to slow them down, and some can even take control of series favourites like Nemesis and G for the first time.
Neobards, who developed the game, supported it as best they could with several free updates with new characters and maps before they washed their hands of the product. Thus, as is the way with many online multiplayer games, it now stagnates with only the sweatiest and most dedicated players. If you can get a group of friends together though, it’s certainly worth a go.
At the time of writing Resident Evil Resistance’s servers are still active albeit quiet, so you may want to act fast to experience this one before you lose the opportunity to.
