Resident Evil: Revelations 2 Complete Season

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 Complete Season PC is a third-person survival horror campaign built around episodic storytelling, partner abilities, resource management, and a separate combat-focused Raid Mode. The title is now represented on Steam by Resident Evil Revelations 2, while “Complete Season” remains the legacy name for the all-episode package rather than a separate rebrand or new game.

Two campaigns, one shifting nightmare

The main story follows Claire Redfield and Moira Burton after they are abducted and taken to a remote prison facility. The campaign then shifts to Barry Burton and Natalia Korda, whose sections revisit the same locations from a different perspective. This structure gives the game a strong investigative rhythm: one pair uncovers what happened, while the other searches through the consequences.

Revelations 2 uses a conventional third-person camera for exploration and combat, but its partner system changes how each room is approached. Claire and Barry handle firearms and direct combat, while Moira and Natalia provide support abilities that reveal threats, expose hidden items, or create openings for attacks. In single-player, switching between the active character and partner is central to solving environmental problems.

Moira’s flashlight can illuminate dark areas, reveal hidden objects, temporarily blind certain enemies, and help Claire perform follow-up attacks. Natalia cannot use firearms, but her sensing ability can identify enemy locations and weak spots. That division of roles makes the campaign more than a standard two-character shooter, especially when an enemy is easier to detect than to defeat.

Survival horror with a tactical partner loop

Combat is deliberately more measured than in the most action-heavy entries of the series. Ammunition, healing items, weapon choices, and route decisions all matter, while environmental threats can be as dangerous as the infected creatures. The Afflicted provide the most recognizable recurring threat, but the campaign also introduces enemies such as Glasps, which test the player’s awareness rather than simply absorbing bullets.

Exploration combines locked routes, environmental puzzles, hidden items, workbenches, and backtracking through previously visited areas. The partner characters are not interchangeable support units. Moira’s crowbar and flashlight encourage close-range assistance, while Natalia’s detection ability changes how Barry approaches unseen enemies. In co-op, the game works best when both players actively coordinate instead of treating the second character as extra firepower.

Story progression is divided into four principal episodes: Penal Colony, Contemplation, Judgment, and Metamorphosis. The episodic format creates natural cliffhangers, but the Complete Season package lets players experience the full arc as one connected campaign. Important decisions also affect later story outcomes, giving repeat playthroughs a reason to revisit earlier chapters.

Raid Mode is the long-term progression layer

Raid Mode is the game’s replay-focused counterpart to the story campaign. Instead of moving through a continuous narrative, players select missions, fight through enemy groups, meet stage objectives, and improve their characters through skills, weapons, and custom parts. The mode includes missions drawn from Revelations 2 as well as locations associated with earlier Resident Evil games.

Its progression model is more systematic than the campaign. Playable characters develop through active and passive skills, while equipment and weapon modifications support different approaches to damage, survivability, and crowd control. Enemy waves can gain special abilities, so later missions are not simply larger versions of earlier encounters. They demand better builds, cleaner movement, and a stronger understanding of each character’s role.

Raid Mode contains more than 200 missions spread across three difficulty settings, with a roster that includes Claire, Moira, Barry, Natalia, Hunk, Wesker, and other characters. It is the best fit for players who enjoy score attacks, unlockable progression, repeated mission clears, and gradually optimizing a combat loadout rather than pursuing another linear horror chapter.

What the Complete Season package represents

The original Complete Season bundle was designed as the all-in-one digital package. It included the four main episodes, the bonus stories The Struggle and Little Miss, and Hunk as a Raid Mode character. The current Steam product uses the shorter name Resident Evil Revelations 2 and presents a broader Deluxe Edition bundle containing the major episode content, both bonus episodes, Hunk, Albert Wesker, the Throwback Map Pack, costumes, and Raid Mode storage expansions.

This distinction matters when comparing old catalog listings with the current storefront. “Complete Season” identifies the legacy season-pass-style package, while Resident Evil Revelations 2 is the active product name used for the PC application. “BIOHAZARD REVELATIONS 2” is the regional branding, not a different campaign or alternate PC edition.

Players looking for a more traditional survival horror structure can compare the tighter exploration and resource pressure of third-person zombie survival horror in Resident Evil 2. Revelations 2 is less focused on a single interconnected location, but it offers more emphasis on partner abilities, episodic pacing, and repeatable combat missions.

Who should play Revelations 2?

This is a strong choice for players who want third-person survival horror with a meaningful co-op role split. It suits fans of Claire Redfield and Barry Burton, players who enjoy Resident Evil side stories, and anyone who prefers a campaign where searching, detecting, and supporting can be as important as shooting.

It is less suitable for players expecting a purely solo horror experience, a first-person perspective, or uninterrupted online campaign co-op. The tone also shifts between tense exploration and more aggressive firefights, particularly in Raid Mode. Those who prefer a straightforward action campaign may find the partner puzzles slow, while traditionalists may find some encounters more combat-heavy than the series’ most methodical entries.

For a more combat-driven cooperative alternative within the same franchise, co-op action horror built around Chris and Sheva in Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition offers a clearer two-player shooter structure. Revelations 2 is more asymmetric: one character often fights while the other detects, blinds, opens, or supports.

PC features and multiplayer reality

The PC edition is distributed through Steam and includes Steam Cloud, achievements, leaderboards, Remote Play features, and controller-oriented multiplayer support. The storefront lists both single-player and shared or split-screen co-op functionality. Capcom’s PC support documentation confirms local split-screen play in Story and Raid Mode with two controllers.

Raid Mode also supports online co-op, making it the proper choice for players who want to play with someone over the internet. The main campaign should be approached as a solo or local split-screen experience rather than a native online co-op campaign. In Raid Mode, local split-screen is started from the base area before entering a mission.

Steam lists interface and subtitle support for English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese. Full audio is listed for English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, and Japanese. The game also tracks Story Mode and Raid Mode progress separately through the Resident Evil.Net ecosystem.
