Review: Resident Evil 5: Desperate Escape
Desperate measures.
Just two weeks on from the release of the excellent Lost In Nightmares DLC, Capcom has seen fit to serve up another delectable portion of episodic content for the five-million-selling Resident Evil 5. How kind.
But while Lost In Nightmares saw a refreshing return to the slow-burn style of panic-stricken survival horror that characterised the series’ early days, Desperate Escape sees the gameplay firmly back in bullet-spraying territory as you fight a concerted battle to get out of the Tricell facility alive.
Set midway through the events of Resident Evil 5 – beware! spoilers ahead – we catch up with Jill Valentine just after Chris and Sheva have removed the mind control amulet that turned her into a pirouetting death machine. With Chris and Sheva determined to high-tail it after Albert Wesker, they leave the exhausted BSAA agent to fend for herself. Manners.
