The biohazard threat has not ended. Just when it seemed that the menace of Resident Evil had been destroyed, along comes a new terror to send shivers down players' spines. Returning hero Chris Redfield heads to Africa where the latest bioterrorism threat is literally transforming the people and animals of the city into mindless, maddened creatures. Take on the challenge of discovering the truth behind this evil plot. In Resident Evil 5, you will learn to fear the daylight as much as you have feared the shadows before.
Versus Mode: With this premium Marketplace add-on, up to four players can match wits in online battles across two very different game types. Slayer's Rule is a point-based game that challenges you to kill Majinis. In Survivor's Rule, players hunt the most dangerous game—each other! Begin the hunt as Chris, Sheva, or other secret characters, and choose from either one-on-one or two-versus-two team matches for either of the two gameplay styles.
New enemies and new challenges: Speed and intelligence make your adversaries as dangerous singly as they are in groups. Use your new arsenal of weapons to keep the evil at bay, including knives, pistols, machine guns, sniper rifles, and more.
Suspense: Lighting effects provide a new level of suspense in both harsh light and deepest shadow.
Next-gen technology: True high-definition gaming is provided by an advanced version of Capcom's proprietary game engine, MT Framework.
