Bengt Lemne 12 March 2009

Capcom have released ten screenshots from the upcoming Nintendo Wii shooter Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. The game is set to be released next winter and Capcom are also bringing the Resident Evil remake and Resident Evil Zero from Gamecube over to Nintendo Wii.

Here is a description of Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles from the press release:

"Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles‘s story is based on Resident Evil 2 and includes the popular characters, Leon S Kenney and Claire Redfield. Its on-rails style gameplay and active camera will create a more immersive "Chronicles" survival experience. As in the last installment, this is a first-person game with extreme shooting gameplay and interactive pathways. Filling in many of the missing pieces of storyline that were not covered in the original "Umbrella Chronicles", Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles will give hardcore fans the chance to re-live some of the most classic moments of the Resident Evil franchise, while allowing new players to take advantage of the intense action-horror experience only possible on the Wii."

The Gamecube rereleases Resident Evil and Resident Evil Zero have been refitted to support the Wiimote and will be released at budget price ($29.99) in similar fashion to Nintendo's New Play Control releases.
