GamesRadar:"Two chapters in, and so far Resident Evil Revelations 2 has been a thoroughly enjoyable episodic adventure. Even so, at times it feels like a series in the middle of an identity crisis: Capcom seemingly can’t quite decide whether its audience is in the mood for gung-ho action or would prefer the slower, more methodical approach of the series’ survival horror roots. It leads to a mild sense of unease during set-pieces where you’re encouraged to fire at will - after the previous hour has taught you to evade and stealth-knife enemies, to scavenge ammo rather than wasting it."
With series staple Mercenaries Mode returning to the Resident Evil 4 Remake, it’s time to remind fans of another mostly forgotten mode from the RE series. Reaching the second chapter in the 2012 3DS game Resident Evil: Revelations unlocked something called Raid Mode for players to enjoy. Unlike Mercenaries, Raid Mode is not a time-attack mode and instead operates as a more RPG-lite version of the main game. While players are expected to try and hammer down on a handful of levels in Mercenaries, Raid Mode gives players a much more expansive game type to play around with.
This mode was included in ports released on the seventh and eighth generations of consoles and was part of Resident Evil: Revelations 2, which was released in 2015. However, the Revelations duology is the only time that Raid Mode has existed in the massive Resident Evil franchise, and that should change in some future release.
I'd like to raid mode make a return in the future. When Capcom was hacked there was a as of yet announced RE game in there that I was hoping might turn into Revelations 3. There were also reports that whatever that RE game was scrapped and cancelled.
The Switch has been out for a few years now with a large library. Check out the games with the biggest file sizes as of January 2021.
