A collaboration between Capcom and Slant Six Games, Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City takes the iconic series, which has sold over 47 million units worldwide, in a completely new direction. A third person team based shooter experience set within the dark and sinister Resident Evil universe, the title is a reinterpretation of the events depicted in Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3. The unique setting of the Resident Evil universe not only provides a rich backdrop to the action but delivers a unique and thrilling triple threat battle. Players not only compete against an opposing squad but also tackle a third unpredictable element, zombies and Bio-Organic Weapons (B.O.W's), breaking the conventions of traditional team based shooters. Expect the return of original Resident Evil enemies, iconic landmarks, and fan favorite characters including Leon S. Kennedy who, as a rookie police officer in Raccoon City, is on your hit list to eliminate.
An additional versus mode exclusive to the Xbox 360 - Nemesis Mode, will be available to download at launch for 320 Microsoft Points.
Capcom will support the release of Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City with a DLC offering via the PlayStation Network and Xbox LIVE that expands gamers' experience of the events unfolding in Raccoon City.

Arriving shortly after launch will be a US Spec Ops Mission, available for consumers to download on April 10 at no charge. Experience the horrors of Raccoon City through the eyes of the good guys as you are deployed to the city to obtain evidence of Umbrella’s involvement in the outbreak.
About Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City
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.
