Capcom has announced that the very first Resident Evil game, originally released in 1996 on the Playstation, will soon be coming to the Wii in the form of the first ‘Resident Evil Archives’.
Resident Evil Archives gives Wii gamers the opportunity to play classic Resident Evil games they may have missed, at a great value price. Experience the beginning of the Resident Evil saga with the remake of the game that started the survival horror genre, Resident Evil.
The Raccoon City Police Department doesn t know what happened to the Special Tactics and Rescue Service (S.T.A.R.S.) team it sent out to investigate the Arklay Mountain area, where a number of people have recently gone missing. The unit s helicopter seems to have crashed in the woods, and it hasn t received any contact from the squad since. The department decides to dispatch another S.T.A.R.S. unit, the Alpha team, to check things out… but something goes terribly wrong.
You take control of S.T.A.R.S. Alpha team members Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine and your mission is to investigate the ominous mansion at the core of the horrific disaster and uncover the secrets behind a radical, genetic research facility.
With unspeakable horrors lurking around every corner, the ultimate test will be to make it out alive!
Resident Evil Archives is out this June.
