Even though the fourth campaign is more or less public knowledge, I’ll not divulge the spoiler of who you’ll play as, but I will say series fans will be pretty happy with that particular protagonist, and the way that campaign plays out. Consisting of three campaigns, and one unlockable, players will get to control series favorites like Leon Kennedy, Chris Redfield, and Sherry Birkin, who are paired up with newcomers Helena Harper, Piers Evans, and Jake Muller, respectively. One of the biggest factors contributing to that uniqueness is the way the campaign is crafted this time out. And for the most part it does a pretty good job of delivering a solid, action-packed modern Resident Evil experience that takes a number of cues from previous titles, but manages to pull together into something fairly unique for the series. We’ve seen a couple spin-offs since then, namely Resident Evil: Mercenaries and Resident Evil: Revelations, along with the pretty poor Operation Raccoon City, but fans have definitely been clamoring for another true sequel, and Resident Evil 6 looks to deliver on that. It’s been a little over three years since the last numbered Resident Evil graced home consoles.
