Eventually Chris and Sheva both uncover a plot to release a new strain of the Progenitor virus called Uroboros. Both are tasked with stopping Ricardo Irving from selling a dangerous bio-weapon. As soon as the game starts he’s introduced to his new partner, Sheva Alomar.

The main campaign follows a returning Resident Evil protagonist Chris Redfield, now a member of the Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance, abbreviated BSAA. Resident Evil 5 follows in the steps of Resident Evil 4 but this time with the added feature of co-op, which is a major element of the gameplay. The game runs at 1080p and sixty frames per second. This includes the Lost in Nightmares and Desperate Escape campaigns. The PS4 and Xbox One versions of Resident Evil 5 contain all of the content from the original release along with all of the DLC. For this review, I played the PlayStation 4 version which was released in June, 2016. It was released for PC in September of that same year. Developed and published by Capcom, Resident Evil 5 was released for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in March, 2009.

But the first game in the series I actually played and beat is Resident Evil 5. The gunplay and action is what got me interested in Resident Evil 4 in the first place. I, personally, love the focus on action since I’m not a fan of horror genre and I’ve also never played the original three. While Resident Evil 4 is usually spoke of very highly, detractors and even some fans of the series will claim it’s not a real Resident Evil game because of it’s focus on action rather than horror. It popularized the over-the-shoulder view, has excellent pacing, and contains an atmosphere that’s unmatched, even in games today. Resident Evil 4 is often considered one of the greatest games of all time.
