The gameplay of "Umbrella Corps" has received mixed reviews, with many players noting its fast-paced, tactical nature but criticizing its clunky mechanics, repetitive objectives, and lack of polish. While some appreciate the unique mechanics like the zombie jammer and the potential for fun in multiplayer modes, others find the controls awkward and the overall experience frustrating due to bugs and unbalanced gameplay. Overall, the game offers a blend of interesting ideas but fails to deliver a cohesive and enjoyable experience, leaving many players disappointed.
“The core gameplay revolves around quick, close-quarters firefights in small, maze-like maps filled with environmental hazards and zombies.”
“The fast-paced gameplay is a breath of fresh air compared to the traditional Resident Evil titles.”
“The blend of horror elements with competitive gameplay really captures the essence of the Resident Evil franchise while offering a unique twist.”
“The controls are clunky, the gameplay feels unpolished, and the zombie gimmick doesn’t add much.”
“The gameplay is clunky, the graphics are mediocre at best, and the storyline is practically non-existent.”
“The game is also riddled with bugs and glitches that make the already frustrating gameplay even worse.”
Umbrella Corps review
A crummy ripoff for Resident Evil fans and newcomers alike

Umbrella Corps is a timely reminder of how low the Resident Evil series can be dragged into the mire.

Umbrella Corps feels like a missed opportunity. Looking at how fun and well-implemented the latest Raid Mode was in Resident Evil Revelations 2, Capcom could have made an entire game that was dedicated to nothing but that one mode, and that game would still have been more fun than what Umbrella Corps is now. If you’re in the market for a good team-based, third-person shooter game, look elsewhere. You can certainly find better shooter games that aren’t plagued with sticky cover mechanics and awkward animations. And if you’re looking for the next terrifying Resident Evil game to satisfy your zombie-killing tendencies, this isn’t the game for you either; Umbrella Corps is simply a mediocre third-person shooter hiding under a Resident Evil skin.
