Game Overview

Capcom has brought back its terrifying action series to the Nintendo Wii with Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles; the publisher's most exhilarating, extreme horror game yet.

This breathtaking sequel to the hugely popular, million-selling Wii exclusive The Umbrella Chronicles is a fast-paced, intense arcade-style lightgun game that lets you use your Wii Remote as a range of powerful, customisable weapons. Grasping the basics of the The Darkside Chronicles is as easy as pointing your game controller at the screen like a gun, while mastering this gory tour de force offers one of the most challenging experiences available today.

Introducing an enhanced two-player co-operative mode, the latest Resident Evil also lets you and a friend tackle the Darkside Chronicles' mutated fiends as a team, delivering an immersive thrill-ride that rivals the best two-player games ever made.

Providing radically upgraded, high-end lightgun action, Capcom's superb Wii release heralds the return of two iconic Resident Evil 2 characters - Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield. The unconventional heroes are thrown into numerous life-or-death situations where they must not only face scores of grotesque foes, but tackle their own inner demons in an adventure that blurs the lines between good and evil.

There's even a chance to revisit classic levels from the series, never yet seen down the barrel of a Wii Remote. That means you'll get the opportunity to unleash hell in the original Resident Evil's Raccoon City and blast lead in the hidden Umbrella laboratory from Resident Evil: Code Veronica, along with a huge selection of newly conceived locations.

As well as letting you configure a selection of weapons for specific confrontations and combat styles, The Darkside Chronicles also includes a number of other innovative features. A dynamic difficulty system means that the game can adapt to your ability continuously, making Capcom's latest equally suitable for hardcore gamers and casual newcomers. Finally, a realistic handheld camera style brings a taste of the best of Hollywood's horror films to the table, and marks out The Darkside Chronicles as a truly special title.

If you like a good scare, want an introduction to Resident Evil, or just love nothing more than a great video game, The Darkside Chronicle's is a release you just cannot miss.
