Resident Evil - Operation Raccoon City delivers a true third-person
team-based shooter experience set within the dark and sinister
Resident Evil universe. Not only does this setting provide a rich
backdrop to the action but it also delivers a unique and brutal
triple-threat battle. Zombies and Bio-Organic Weapons (B.O.W.s) add
to the mix as players compete against their team’s opposing squad
and tackle this third, unpredictable element that could only exist
in the twisted Resident Evil universe. The result is a brand new
style of gameplay that breaks the conventions of traditional third
person shooters.
It is September 1998 and the action centers on
the ill-fated Raccoon City. When the Umbrella Corporation learns
that one of its top scientists, Dr. William Birkin, plans to sell
the experimental G-Virus to the US Government they order an elite
team of Umbrella Security Service (U.S.S.) soldiers led by Hunk into
their secret research facility to secure the only known sample of
the virus. The operation takes a turn for the worse when Dr. Birkin
injects himself with the last vial, mutating into a deadly creature,
G-Birkin and over powering the team. During the battle the deadly
‘t-Virus’ is leaked into the sewers and spread through Raccoon
City, infecting the entire population.
Hearing of the outbreak,
the USS team is given fresh orders to destroy all evidence of
Umbrella’s involvement and silence anyone that might discover the
truth. The Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service (U.B.C.S.) are
also deployed to help contain the situation. Meanwhile the US
Government has quarantined the city and dispatched its own team of
special operatives to determine the source of the mysterious
outbreak. Caught up in the chaos are rookie police officer Leon S.
Kennedy and Claire Redfield.
Players take on the role of an
Umbrella Security Soldier (U.S.S) and battle against all the
competing forces at play in Raccoon City. Choose from six
characters, each one equipped with a unique skill set, including the
female field scientist Four-Eyes who can manipulate the T-virus and
take control of the B.O.W’s raiding the streets of Raccoon City or
the weapons expert and U.S.S team captain Lupo.
