Resident Evil: Dead Aim Was A Big Improvement... But Was It Enough?

So after releasing two RE Survivor games that were both met with a relatively negative reception, as well as a third set in the Dino Crisis universe that didn’t fare much better, you’d think that Capcom would finally just give it up and quietly sunset this little series right? Well, if you’ve learned anything about this era of Capcom, you’d know that they weren’t just going to roll over and give up the opportunity to milk the Resident Evil franchise just a bit more. So naturally, they decided to give a smaller Japanese developer, Cavia, the rights to make just one more survivor game, while dropping the Survivor subtitle entirely to avoid the generally negative reputation that it had at this point. And for any of you who might recognize the name Cavia, yes, it is in fact the same Cavia that would go on to develop the Drakengard and Nier series shortly after this. As far as we know, the game had a relatively smooth development cycle, and Resident Evil: Dead Aim would eventually be released to the world in February of 2003. As has been the case for every spinoff we’ve covered so far, I had never played Dead Aim before doing so for this video, so join me as we take a look back on the 4th and final Gun Survivor game that Capcom would ever produce.
Full Resident Evil Series: • Resident Evil Retrospe...
Resident Evil: Dead Aim is a light gun shooter video game developed by Cavia and published by Capcom. It is the third Gun Survivor title in the Resident Evil series, and the fourth and final installment in the Gun Survivor series. It is also the third in the franchise to feature first-person shooting in the Resident Evil series. Dead Aim uses a third-person view when moving and switches to a first-person view when aiming and firing a weapon, with a dot in the center of the screen to help the player aim. It is one of the few Resident Evil games that allows the player to move while aiming and supports using the PlayStation 2 light gun and USB mouse.
