Umbrella Corps: New map, enemy type revealed

Capcom today detailed a new map and enemy type for the upcoming Umbrella Corps.

The new map is based on Resident Evil: Code: Veronica‘s Antartic Base.

“The base remains in its heavily destroyed state, featuring a vertically expansive play area covering three floors that allow players to endure a thrilling fast-paced round of hide and seek gameplay,” Capcom said of the map. “Perhaps the most tactical map in the game, players can utilise cover points, interwoven ventilation ducts, and ladders to unleash deadly surprise attacks on their foes.”

The new enemy type is the mutated zombie, also found in the single player Experiment Mode’s Antarctic Base map and in the Multi-Mission Mode’s SP DNA Hunter ruleset.

According to Capcom, the mutated zombies are “harder to defeat than normal zombies, not only are they unaffected by the Zombie Jammer, but they are also able to render the Zombie Jammer temporarily ineffective against other creatures near the player.”
