Resident Evil ORC is a tps (Third Person Shooter) delevoped by Six Slant Games and published by Capcom.
Okay just a quick note this is obviously a step away from the traditional survival horror slow paced RE"s of the past so quit complaing about how it isn't a “Real” Resident Evil game but seriously get over it sometimes change is for the best and it's not to say capcom is abandoning the survival horror elements that made the series such a success.
This game takes place during the events of the raccoon city incident aka Resident Evil 2&3's time line. And from the bone head comments i've seen from other sites saying leon can't die or others can't die this game is not cannon to the franchises storyline. It's more of a what if scenario.
This is the first time you can play as the bad guys aka the Umbrella Corporation's (umbrella security squad) and your mission it clean up the mess that the company has caused by eliminating B.O.W creatures as well as citizen's even the famous Resident Evil cast like Leon Scott Kennedy and Claire Redfield and many others. However aside from the infected creatures you'll also have to fight against the US Governments Spec Op's. Their mission is to uncover the cause of the outbreak and find evidences that points to Umbrella so it's your job to stop them.
Big changes to the series are
