New Resident Evil Game Revealed
The next installment of the long-running series is on its way. Squad-based shooter, anyone?
The new May issue of Official Xbox Magazine has revealed the first details on Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City. Developed by Slant Six, the team once responsible for SOCOM, the new game appears to be a significant departure for the franchise from its survival/horror roots. Instead, players adopt the roles of a team of Umbrella operatives seeking to cover up evidence of the virus outbreak in 1998.
The info comes via a second hand source at stickskills. We've contacted Capcom directly to confirm the game's existence.
