Resident Evil: Raccoon City Confirmed

As well as some juicy HD re-releases of Resident Evil 4 and Code Veronica, first details have emerged for the much rumoured Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City.

Due out in autumn, Official Xbox Magazine has the scoop, and it seems that the game is a team based shooter set in the Resident Evil 2 timeframe. You and up to three other players can join one of three factions as you duck and dive around Raccoon City.

One of the teams is the Umbrella Security Services Squad, and as you can imagine with a name like that you’ll be doing Umbrella’s dirty work. The team consists of four new characters: Vector, Beltway, Bertha, and Spectre.

It sounds suitably different to what we have come to expect from a Resident Evil game.

  1. resi 5 is fun especially with Move but i wasnt a fan of the setting, felt like too much of a shooter as well. I want survival horror baby! :)

  2. this sounds suitably delicious

  3. Sounds good. Spectre sounds mysterious.

  4. Does it say whether it’s competitive and/or co-op based? Online/offline? A story or missions?

  5. Sounds like a good idea, will keep an eye on this
