Description

"Evil Has a New Address.
Yours."
Your Special Tactics and Rescue Squad has been choppered to a remote mansion to investigate a biotechnical experiment gone hideously wrong. Before you can say “mass murder,” you’re plunged straight into a deathtrap writhing with man-eating freaks, swarming crows and rabid dogs.
Arm yourself with knives and flame-throwers scavenged from dead teammates. Solve puzzles, disarm traps and unearth mysteries. But beware: every move you make draws you deeper into the deadly embrace of Resident Evil.

Completely uncut, with even more blood, graphic violence and gory scenes than the worldwide monster hit version on PlayStation.
A swarm of unknown horrors prowl the mansion’s hundreds of rooms, including its underground lairs, the graveyard and some unwelcoming guest houses.
Unprecedented detail-intense texture maps, shadows and lighting effects, plus ever-changing camera angles, create a frighteningly rich 3-D environment.
Choose to play tough guy marksman Chris Redfield or hardcore demolition expert Jill Valentine, both brought to life with realistic polygon character graphics.
Ominous digital surround soundtrack features haunting music that intensifies the action.

This re-released version of the game was co-developed by GOG.
