The Japanese version of Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City, a co-op TPS centred on the Umbrella squad. Intriguing setting, but broken AI, confused mission design and shaky hit detection. The premise deserved better.

Collector interest
A co-op action spin-off of Resident Evil revisiting the Raccoon City incident from the viewpoint of a mercenary squad, an owned-up departure from survival horror toward team shooting. Its Japanese and Asian edition under the Biohazard name draws collectors gathering the saga's offshoots, including its less canonical detours. Its interest owes to this spin-off place within a closely followed franchise and to the regional pressing's scarcity.
