Info about RE WII like you can't believe!
Resident Evil for the new Nintendo WII console will be called Umbrella Cronicles.
Quote from IGN
In this week's Famitsu magazine, the publication revealed in their Wii section some mention about a new Biohazard game, entitled Biohazard: Umbrella Chronicles. Dubbed as an action game headed by Kawada Masachika, the man who was responsible for the PS2 port of Resident Evil 4, the game's story and characters have yet to be revealed, you can probably take a few guesses as to who's going to show up based on the title of the game.
The article reveals very little about the title, even to suggest that the game will somehow make use of the Wii's remote to manipulate your weapons. I suppose that's something. So far there has been little details about the game so far, and the screenshots that were included with Famitsu's preview make everything even more confusing; one screenshot depicts what seems like an old fashioned dining hall much like the one from the first Resident Evil game, as well as a door that's been blown to bits by some sort of weapon.
More information will most likely be available at the Tokyo Game Show next week, so keep checking back for updates soon!
Here's a list of info on what will be featured in the game!
- The game is named "Biohazard: Umbrella Corp Chronicle", or "Resident Evil: Umbrella Corp. Chronicles".
- It features all characters from RE1, RE2, RE3, and RE4.
- The Wiimote will be used as a Lightgun would. It will apparently control like RE4, only aiming is done via pointing the Wiimote.
- The story will fill in the blanks between RE:CV and RE4.
- Features mansion from RE1, Raccoon Police Station from RE2.
- The graphics engine is based on that used in RE4 - it is expected to use an upgraded version of that game's engine.
- The game is to be in the 3rd Person perspective.
- Features 2 gameplay modes: Scenario mode and Arcade mode.
- Scenario mode - Play through the entire story from RE1 to RE4, stage by stage.
- You can only choose one type of gun and one type of weapon during a stage (there is limited ammo).
- The game is exclusive on Wii.
