Project Resistance, now Resident Evil Resistance, will actually be released to players as Resident Evil 3‘s multiplayer mode, Capcom today announced.
The 4v1 asymmetric multiplayer mode was first revealed at Tokyo Game Show 2019, though it wasn’t (obviously) advertised as a component of the Resident Evil 3 remake which was officially announced earlier this morning.
“As the Mastermind behind the scenes, players can assume the role of key Resident Evil characters like Annette Birkin in a series of deadly experiments,” Capcom said of the mode in a new press release.
“Manipulate the environment and wield a deck of cards to place vicious creatures, set traps and weaponized security cameras to snare hapless Survivors. A first for the franchise, Masterminds can even directly control elite bioweapons like G-Birkin and Tyrant. In turn, four Survivors must effectively work together, making the most of a variety of weapons and each player’s unique special abilities, to stand a chance of escaping the experiment before time runs out.”
