Editorial overview
What it is
Resident Evil Outbreak is a survival-horror game released exclusively for the PlayStation 2. The gameplay is similar to the previous Resident Evil games and consists mainly of exploring, solving puzzles, finding items and surviving. It was the first Resident Evil game with multiplayer capability, using the PlayStation 2's online network. Up to four players could participate simultaneously in one scenario. Alternately, in single-player mode, the player is accompanied by two AI-controlled characters.
The premise
Resident Evil Outbreak takes place over five scenarios, ranging from the beginning of the outbreak to the moment when Raccoon City is destroyed by the United States government. You play one of eight ordinary citizens of Raccoon city attempting to survive the carnage caused by the T-Virus.
