Resident Evil 3 review - uniquely apposite reboot

PS4, Xbox One, PC; Capcom
Dealing with a deadly virus seems highly relevant in this remake, which adds a multiplayer mode, though it's not as meaty as Res Evil 2

Among the adjectives applied to the Resident Evil games over the franchise's 20-year history of frenzied zombie-slaying, we perhaps never expected to find the words "relevant" or "instructive". However, this modern-technology reimagining of 1999's Resident Evil 3 charts the immediate aftermath of a devastating viral outbreak - in this case the T-Virus, created by the evil Umbrella Corporation - in a small city, so it is perhaps uniquely apposite.

In the current circumstances, it is also faintly reassuring: at least our streets aren't ablaze and teeming with undead monsters.
