Fans will appreciate the detailed interiors and decorative elements that evoke the atmosphere of the Resident Evil universe, along with interactive dialogue events that bring the characters to life. Gameplay includes purchasing items from the iconic Weapons Merchant featured in the original series, preparing for missions, and crafting survival strategies. Careful planning and tactical preparation are key to survival.

Each character brings unique skills and traits, enabling diverse tactical combinations and offering a fresh experience for longtime fans.
