Resident Evil Outbreak File #2

Capcom developed and released two Outbreak games in their Resident Evil Series. "Resident Evil Outbreak File #2 is the last. Both launched on the PlayStation2 with Outbreak being launched in 2003 and the sequel in 2004. "Resident Evil Outbreak" was one of the first Resident Evil titles on PS2; however, it was a single-player game.

This Resident Evil game was one of Capcoms first attempts in creating a multiplayer experience within the Resident Evil world. It allows you to play with friends and choose characters that can support each other in the correct ways. Both Resident Evil Outbreak games held up as good games when released in 2003 and 2004. However, Resident Evil 4 came out in 2005, the beginning staple of creating the current Resident Evil games today.

Game Structure

The game's scenario selection is a great alternative in contrast to how other Resident Evil games are played. What makes it unique is that there are several scenarios you play through one at a time that connect the story. In contrast to having one long story with save points in certain points of the game. There are a total of 6 "scenarios," including the training. Before starting each one, you can choose the difficulty you want to play on and which character you would use for that scenario. There are eight playable characters, all with unique items and actions.

There is an unlockable outfit for each character. For the multiplayer aspect, each character's items and actions match up better or worse based on who you play. Each character has 2 or 3 allies they can match up with for ideal synergy between the items and actions. After each scenario, you will get a score between E (the worst) and S (the best). You can earn more points for your score by playing on more complex difficulties, retrieving special items from the map, and saving all survivors. Completing a "scenario" unlocks the next.
