3.5/5 ★ – MechaniChris's review of Resident Evil Outbreak File #2.

I praised the potential of Outbreak more than the actual gameplay and this followup kind of fulfills some of that potential! The quality of life improvement for your team are a lifesaver, and being able to actually choose the members of that team is enormously beneficial. Being able to have Yoko as my partner allowed me to utilize her inventory, while letting me try out Cindy, who is equally as helpful with her array of healing items. With those two characters, every scenario is kind of a breeze, until the last one which had me truly racing against the clock. My third teammate made virtually no difference, and often got lost anyway, but one time they did find a key item without me so that was nice. The 5 new scenarios here are a lot of fun, especially the first one at the zoo. It is pretty funny seeing another preamble to the RPD building too. I feel like I know they layout of it better than I do my own house at this point. I also like that all of these scenarios COULD fit into canon (sort of) it really fleshes out the this city and the people in it, letting you feel the weight of its destruction even harder. It’s pretty much the same game as the first, but a little better, and for me, that’s enough to bump it up half a star. Definitely worth checking out if you can, though I imagine it’s pretty hard to find.
