RESIDENT EVIL Survival Unit Gameplay

Image

Resident Evil Survival Unit is a real-time strategy mobile game that departs from the series' traditional survival horror. Players begin by establishing and building up a base, an abandoned mansion that serves as a central hub for their operations.

This involves resource gathering, constructing and upgrading facilities, and managing a team of iconic characters from across the Resident Evil franchise. Base management is crucial for preparing for missions and crafting essential survival gear.

Meanwhile, tactical combat takes place in real-time where players assemble a squad of up to three characters, each with unique skills and abilities, and strategically deploy them to fend off waves of infected enemies. It requires players to make split-second decisions about character placement and skill usage.

The game incorporates classic Resident Evil elements like puzzles, traps, and limited resources, adding a layer of strategic depth to the combat. It also features a global multiplayer component, allowing players to connect and compete against others, adding a competitive edge to the strategic gameplay loop.

RESIDENT EVIL Survival Unit Story Plot

Resident Evil Survival Unit is set in a non-canon, parallel universe that unfolds alongside the events of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3. The story begins with the player's character, an Umbrella Corporation test subject, waking up in a mysterious hospital with no memory of their past. As the protagonist escapes the hospital and uncovers the truth of their capture, they are thrust into a new narrative that explores an alternate timeline.

This original storyline sees familiar faces from the franchise—such as Leon S. Kennedy, Claire Redfield, and Jill Valentine—returning to aid the player's character in their quest for survival. The player must build and manage a base from an abandoned mansion, gathering resources and forming alliances to fight against the infected.

It will also feature a new original creature designed by world-renowned Japanese Artist Yoshitaka Amano. This new monster, "Mortem" will be pivotal to the game's main story, along with other creatures created through the collaboration of Aniplex, JOYCITY, and CAPCOM.

The game is designed to be a blend of classic Resident Evil themes and a real-time strategy experience, creating a fresh narrative that builds upon the established lore while offering a new perspective on the unfolding outbreak.
