Synopsis
The hugely popular
Biohazard series, having sold over 61 million units to
date, returns to its roots with a remastered version
of the critically acclaimed masterpiece, Biohazard.
Originally released in 1996, Biohazard was then
“remade” in 2002 from the ground up with new visuals,
gameplay elements, environments and story details
whilst retaining the survival horror atmosphere the
series had become synonymous for. Both fans of the
franchise who want a trip down memory lane and those
who are yet to experience the game that coined the
term survival horror for the gaming world will
appreciate this definitive re-visit of that iconic
2002 Biohazard title.
Using the latest resolution enhancement and 3D model technology,
game resolutions and textures have been significantly
upgraded, including 1080p support on next-gen
consoles, resulting in characters and backgrounds
coming to life in greater detail than ever seen before
in
Biohazard.
Not only will the graphics impress but the tense sound
effects have been fully remastered with 5.1 surround
support for a greater gaming atmosphere. Players are
now able to choose not only between experiencing the
terror at the classic 4:3 ratio or a stunning 16:9
widescreen mode but also the type of control scheme
they play with. The classic control scheme remains for
fans of the original play style or there’s an
alternative scheme where the character moves directly
in the direction of the analogue stick, utilizing the
standards of the current generation of gaming. Both
the control scheme and the display options can be
toggled between at any time during gameplay.
The intense horror fans
first experienced with the release of the original
Biohazard is back. Taking place in the now notorious
Raccoon City, players choose to take on the role of
either S.T.A.R.S. (Special Tactics and Rescue Service)
team member Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine who have
been sent into the city to find the missing Bravo
team. When the team is suddenly attacked by a
ferocious group of mutated dogs, desperate for an
escape they take shelter in the Mansion, but will they
ever get out alive again? Players will need to be
brave as they adventure through the dark, enclosed
spaces searching out the horrors that await them. With
limited ammo and survival items available gamers will
need to keep their wits about them to survive the
various traps and puzzles that greet them at every
stage.
Preorders for the
regular edition of
the game are welcome to ship on November 27, 2014, along
with a
Collector's Edition which is bundled with a
48-page art booklet and a mansion floor map.
