Resident
Evil: Operation Raccoon City delivers a true third person team based
shooter experience set within the dark and sinister Resident Evil
universe and a reinterpretation of the events depicted in Resident Evil 2
and Resident Evil 3. Zombies and Bio-Organic Weapons (B.O.W's) add to
the mix as players not only compete against an opposing squad but also
tackle this third unpredictable element, creating a brand new style of
gameplay and breaking the conventions of traditional team based
shooters.
It
is September 1998 and the action centers once more on the ill-fated
Raccoon City and the horrific consequences of the deadly T-virus
outbreak from the Umbrella facility. With a cover up required, Umbrella
orders an elite team into Raccoon City to destroy all evidence of the
outbreak and eliminate any survivors. Hearing of this plan, the US
Government dispatches its own special forces to uncover any evidence
that exposes the cause of the viral infection and Umbrella's actions.
Players take on the role of an Umbrella Security Services soldier
(U.S.S.), competing alone or in four player co-op in a battle against
all the competing forces at play in Raccoon City.
