Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, known as Biohazard: The Darkside Chronicles​ in Japan, is an upcoming on-rails shooting game for the Wii developed by cavia and Capcom.

The game will be released on November 17, 2009 in North America. It is to be released in Europe on November 27, 2009 bundled with the Wii Zapper accessory.

Plot

The game’s plot will revolve around the personal stories and tragedies in the series. Its main focus is retelling the events of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil Code: Veronica, and a new chapter will be featured.

For the Resident Evil 2 segment, the player will take control of protagonists Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield, with Ada Wong and Sherry Birkin acting as supporting characters.

The Code: Veronica chapter will again feature Claire, accompanied by fellow Rockfort Island prisoner Steve Burnside. Albert Wesker is set to make an appearance in a flashback. Chris Redfield will also make an appearance.

The Review

Gameplay

The Darkside Chronicles will be an on-rails shooter. The player’s partner will be seen on screen during gameplay, unless a co-op game is being played.

There will be a new evade attack to set The Darkside Chronicles apart from other on-rails shooters. There were also changes to make the game more appealing to casual gamers. For example, head shots will be made easier for players to perform and a status screen has been implemented to intuitively change weapons with the D-pad.

The game will adjust its difficulty itself, depending on the players’ skill level. Other new features include online leaderboards and a system to tell the players’ reticules apart from each other in a co-op session.
