Resident Evil 5
HORROR CENTRALITY
58 /100

RE5 is mainly an action/shooter with survival horror elements. It delivers tense moments and horrific imagery, but the core experience centers on gun combat, resource management, and co-op progression rather than fear as the primary objective. Horror is significant but not defining.
