now Capcom delivers. Resident
Evil Outbreak is revolutionary in the fact that it will support
online and offline play to bring many gamers together to experience

Resident Evil Outbreak tells the dramatic
story of escaping from decaying zombies infected with the
T-virus and the ultimate struggle to escape from Raccoon City.
An outbreak of a secret biological weapon has infected the
people of this isolated town which has caused everyday people
to turn into flesh-eating zombies that swarm the streets.
In a final attempt to stop the spread of the zombies the city
is engulfed in flames. A fight is being fought by S.T.A.R.S.
(Special Tactics and Rescue Squads) members Leon Kennedy and
Claire Redfield as they are trapped within this horrific nightmare.
They wage their war against the pharmaceutical giant, Umbrella
who are responsible for the events leading up to this disaster.
In the shadow of this nightmare are a few meagre survivors.
These survivors must find a way to get out of this city before
the government quarantines the entire area by firing a missile
and destroying all traces of life. Players must beat the clock
or die trying. Resident Evil Outbreak is the story of those
survivors and their ordeal. These are just regular people,
