Resident Evil
Raccoon City nightmare
Resident Evil is a Japanese video game franchise centered on survival horror—players navigate zombie outbreaks, mutant creatures, and sinister bioweapon conspiracies while managing scarce ammunition and health supplies.
The series, launched by Capcom in 1996, has expanded into films, novels, and other media.
I spent the whole weekend replaying the Resident Evil remake.
