About this game

RACCOON CITY EDITION bundles Capcom’s two big Resident Evil remakes into one package, putting Jill Valentine’s run through a collapsing, monster-infested city alongside the earlier remake starring Leon and Claire. If you’ve been meaning to catch up on either of these games and never got around to it, this is the version that gets you both at once.

The pitch is straightforward: two full survival horror campaigns, built on the same modern engine and control scheme, packaged together instead of sold as separate purchases. For a series with this much history, having the two most recent reimaginings sit side by side is a genuinely good way to experience them, since they share tone and mechanics but tell different halves of the same outbreak.

How it plays

Both games put you in third-person over-the-shoulder combat against zombies and worse, with the usual survival horror math of limited ammo, healing items, and inventory space working against you. Jill’s story has her fighting to escape a city that’s falling apart around her, which puts a premium on movement and quick decision-making under pressure. The Leon and Claire campaign, being the earlier of the two remakes, leans a bit more into methodical room-by-room exploration and puzzle-solving between the scares. Neither game holds your hand: resources are tight enough that you’re constantly weighing whether to fight, run, or backtrack for supplies, which is the loop that’s made this style of Resident Evil hold up so well on replay.

Who it’s for

This is for people who like their horror games tense rather than just gross, and who don’t mind restarting an encounter because they used the wrong ammo type at the wrong moment. If you grew up on the original PlayStation era Resident Evil games, or you just like third-person action with a survival edge, both campaigns will feel familiar fast. It’s less suited to players who want a purely story-driven walk or who bounce off games that ask you to manage inventory space like a puzzle in itself. If jump scares and limited saves aren’t your thing, this bundle isn’t going to change your mind.

Is it worth it?

Getting two complete campaigns in one purchase is the real value proposition here, especially if you haven’t played either remake yet. These are the kind of games that reward a full playthrough rather than a quick dip, so having both stories bundled together means you’re not stuck choosing which one to buy first. If you already own one of the two individually, it’s worth checking exactly what this edition adds before buying again. But for anyone starting fresh, this is a solid one-stop way to get the full modern Resident Evil experience, and it’s exactly the sort of bundle worth grabbing when it’s discounted rather than paying full price for pieces separately.
