Resident Evil 0
About the Game
Resident Evil Zero takes place before the events of the original Resident Evil . You take on the role of one of two characters: Rebecca Chambers, the Bravo team medic encountered in the first game, and Billy Coen, an ex-con being transported. The game begins with the Bravo team flying overhead, en route to investigate a series of murders. Something happens, and the helicopter crashes.
Story & Setting
You now take control of Rebecca, and your journey begins.
Gameplay & Core Systems
In addition to the series' traditional survival horror gameplay, the game introduces what it calls a "partner zapping" system, which allows you to switch between Rebecca and Billy at any time. This feature must be used at times, as the game requires both characters to work together to solve some puzzles. New to the game are a bunch of terrifying enemies, like the mutant centipede, new areas to explore, and the ability to drop items on the ground instead of having to find an item box. That mode gives both characters a new appearance, a red-eye controlled look for Rebecca and Wesker replacing Billy with his own unique set of special abilities.
Modes & Ways to Play
Unlike the original GameCube release, all enhanced ports later on feature an additional Wesker Mode which gets unlocked after completing the game.
