Umbrella Corps is an online multiplayer FPP/TPP shooter set in the universe of the survival horror game series, Resident Evil. It is the franchises' second – after the infamous Resident Evill: Operation Racoon City – spin-off that focuses on online multiplayer matches and was created by Capcom’s developer team under the lead of Masachika Kawata, a co-creator of most of the franchise's major entries. Umbrella Corps for PC and PS4 has been announced in September 2015 during Tokyo Game Show and debuted on the 20th anniversary of the series, whose first part appeared on the PlayStation console in March 1996.

Gameplay

Umbrella Corps combines the elements known from the aforementioned Operation Racoon City with those of popular online shooters like Counter-Strike, with the gameplay focusing on fast and eye-catching fights of armed to teeth teams of mercenaries that represent powerful corporations competing on the field of biological weaponry.

Resident Evil Game Series

Resident Evil is a series of Japanese survival horrors published by Capcom. Shinji Mikami and Tokuro Fujiwara are mainly responsible for its creation. The series started on March 22, 1996, with the release of Resident Evil (also known as Biohazard) on the PlayStation console. It was during its marketing campaign that the term survival horror was coined. The prototype of the series is the game Sweet Home released in 1989, based on the film of the same name. Fujiwara himself was responsible for it, and many elements, such as QTE sequences or inventory management, were transferred to the Biohazard series. Since then, it has grown steadily, gaining more game installments, as well as movie, animation, comic book and novel adaptations.
