The series is so prolific that you can find both genre-defining masterpieces and forgettable misfires sporting the Resident Evil name. Horrifying, challenging, and camp in equal measure, such a blend creates quirks that some may consider charming, while others find them simply painful. But make no mistake, the joy of working in volume is that there\u2019s a Resident Evil game for everyone. &#10;&lt;br&gt;&#10;&lt;br&gt;&#10;To create our list of top Resident Evil games, we considered several factors. There\u2019s the overall quality, of course, but also each game\u2019s enduring legacy. Some revolutionised the survival horror genre, while others introduced bold new ideas to the series. We also considered their impact on the wider video game landscape, as well as how easy they are to access and play today. &#10;&lt;br&gt;&#10;&lt;br&gt;&#10;So, prepare yourself for the ten terrors that await. These are the best Resident Evil games, ranked. \" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-2896921488 image aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-16-9 jsx-2605834259 jsx-2338608387 hover-opacity\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Resident Evil: Code Veronica originally launched in 2000 for the Sega Dreamcast. It&#8217;s not a mainline numbered entry in the series, but it remains beloved by fans and considered a core part of the franchise&#8217;s story. Its narrative takes place around the same time as Resident Evil 3, but instead features Claire and Chris Redfield on a remote prison island and then in Antarctica. And yes, fan-favorite baddie Wesker is also involved.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">To catch up on all the announcements from tonight, be sure to check out <a class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/summer-game-fest-2026-everything-announced\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">IGN&#8217;s roundup of everything announced during Summer Game Fest 2026<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Tom Phillips is IGN&#8217;s News Editor.
