Capcom was founded in 1979, but it wasn't until four years later that it released its first full-length game. From that moment, the studio started working at full capacity, constantly creating and releasing dozens of games, until today. From under the wings of Capcom came such hits as, among others, DuckTales, Street Fighter or Devil May Cry. Like the cult DMC series, Resident Evil is also the work of the experienced and popular Capcom studio from Japan. It is also known that it was Resident Evil that gave rise to the character of Dante and the DMC series, which in the first projects was supposed to be a continuation of Residen Evil.
The first part of Resident Evil was created in 1996 and it was initially released exclusively on the PlayStation. Later it also appeared on GameCube. This game was a one-of-a-kind survival horror game with adventure and action elements. The plot was about bloodthirsty monsters that began to terrorize the city of Raccoon City. It quickly turned out that the monsters are actually city dwellers turned into zombies as a result of a virus that was created and released by the mysterious Umbrella Corporation. To save the survivors, a special unit called S.T.A.R.S., in which the player plays a role, is sent. We can choose between two playable characters: Chris and Jill. The very choice of the hero affects the plot and the end of the game.
Resident Evil has delighted players with music, story, challenging missions and gameplay for years. For this reason, in 2015, a remake of this amazing title was created, called Resident Evil HD (2015), which this time was released not only on PlayStation 3 and 4, but also on Microsoft consoles (Xbox 360 and Xbox ONE), PC and Switch.
