Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
46 of 147 sampled reviews raised it
I'd hate to be all negative here, because like I said before - the RE formula is so criminally fun, and this title also allows you to play around with it in COOP which is great.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
28 of 147 sampled reviews raised it
Inspired by the survival horror genre's most memorable classics, it blends atmospheric exploration, tense combat, environmental puzzles, and cooperative gameplay into an experience that values strategy over brute force.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
12 of 147 sampled reviews raised it
I was pleasantly surprised how easy and painless it was to rejoin an ongoing game after my Internet went down playing a multiplayer session.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
7 of 147 sampled reviews raised it
The one area where Necrosis manages to stand out is its sound design.
