About This Game

The biohazard threat has not ended: Just when it seemed that the menace of Resident Evil had been destroyed, along comes a new terror to send shivers down players' spines. Chris Redfield, returning Resident Evil hero, has followed the path of the evil literally around the globe. After joining a new organization, Chris heads to Africa where the latest bioterrorism threat is literally transforming the people and animals of the city into mindless, maddened creatures. He is joined by a new partner, Sheva Alomar, who lends her strength, intelligence and sharp-shooting skills to the mission. In order to survive, Chris and Sheva must work together to take on the challenges of discovering the truth behind this evil plot. Utilizing a revolutionary new 2-player co-op mode of gameplay, players assume control of either Chris or Sheva and experience Resident Evil in new ways. In Resident Evil 5, Capcom has players fearing the daylight as much as they have feared shadow in previous games.

Frequently Asked Questions

It runs at 60 fps with a higher-resolution output on PS4/Xbox One and Switch, plus distant-camera options and minor bug fixes—not a full overhaul, but smoother performance overall.
Yes. It includes the Gold/Alternative Edition content—Lost in Nightmares, Desperate Escape, Versus mode, extra outfits, Mercenaries Reunion/United, plus No Mercy mode on some platforms.
The core gunplay and co-op remain satisfying—many have replayed it multiple times—though controls are dated (no aim-while-moving) and partner AI isn’t great solo. But co-op keeps it fun.
Distant-camera and “Assist Mode” were added to modern versions. Performance is solid, but it’s only a resolution/framerate boost—textures and UI remain unchanged. Some co-op crashes reported on PC.
Yes, if you want classic RE5 co-op and Mercenaries with modern performance and full DLC. Skip it if you dislike dated mechanics or expect a true remake.
