The biohazard threat has not ended: just when it seemed that the
menace of Resident Evil had been destroyed, along comes a new
terror to send
shivers down player's spines. Chris Redfield, returning Resident
Evil hero, has followed the path of the evil literally around
the globe. After joining a new organization, Chris heads to Africa
where the latest bioterrorism threat is literally transforming the
people and animals of the city into mindless, maddened creatures. He
is joined by a new partner, Sheva Alomar, who lends her strength,
intelligence and sharp-shooting skills to the mission. In order to
survive, Chris and Sheva must work together to take on the
challenges of discovering the truth behind this evil plot. Utilising
a revolutionary new co-op mode of gameplay, players will be able to
assume control of either Chris or Sheva and experience Resident
Evil in new ways. In
Resident Evil 5, Capcom will have players fearing the
daylight as much as they have feared shadow in previous games.
Co-producers and series veterans Jun Takeuchi (Lost Planet:
Extreme Condition) and Masachicka Kawata (Resident
Evil 4: Wii Edition, Resident Evil: The Umbrella
Chronicles) unleash an unprecedented level of fear for the
Current-Generation in Resident Evil 5, the sequel to one of
the highest-rated videogames in history, according to your every own
Electronic Theatre. Promising to revolutionise the series by
delivering an unbelievable level of detail, realism and control,
Resident Evil 5 is certain to bring new fans to the series. New
technology developed specifically for the game, as well as
incredible changes to both the gameplay and world of Resident
Evil will make this a must-have game for gamers across the
globe.
The Resident Evil series has sold over 34 million units since
the original game was released in 1996 and has spawned a
multi-million dollar trilogy of films from SONY Pictures.
Resident Evil 5 will revolutionise the Resident Evil
series, just as Resident Evil 4 did.
