A team of S.T.A.R.S (Special Tactics And Rescue Squad) members are called to investigate a series of murders near Raccoon City. While searching the woods near the city, the team is attacked by something and they have to retreat in a mansion nearby.

A big mistake...

Player chooses between Jill Valentine or Chris Redfield and starts to explore the mansion, and it soon becomes very clear that it isn't just any mansion, but a hellish place where the undead walk the corridors and other horrors are lurking in the darkness, waiting to eat some heads. While solving puzzles, collecting stuff and shooting monsters, the player has to unravel the mystery behind this mansion and -if possible- get out alive.
