Resident Evil 3 is a remake of the original Resident Evil 3: Nemesis released in 1999. It updates the story and gameplay for a modern audience. Like the Resident Evil 2 remake, the game uses over-the-shoulder third person point of view similar to Resident Evil 4 and later installments. Players will spend most of their time playing as Jill Valentine, although on some occasions they will assume the role of Carlos Oliveira, giving him more screen time as a deuteragonist.

The ride itself is compelling enough that you'll have a good time for the brief time...
In isolation, Resident Evil 3 is a decent third-person action game with some monsters and excellent audio-visual design. However, Resident Evil 3 stands on the shoulders of a giant and fails to live up to its flawed but deserved legacy. It’s too short and speeds through parts that spark the imagination, often coming across more like it should have been...
Resident Evil 3 is a thrill ride that refuses to let you stop for a breath, and the Switch 2 port is practically perfect in every way.
