The members of S.T.A.R.S. have now returned safely. It was revealed that the medical corporation "Umbrella" has been performing biological experiments. The top executives of Umbrella were immediately arrested, and the company was completely shut down. Now referred to as "The Umbrella Incident", media around the world has made aware their biological experiments and conspiracies of terrorism. The nightmare was thought to be over until...

Raccoon City was showing signs of abnormality once again. It began with a skin disease. The citizens demanded an investigation, as they suspected it was related to the Umbrella Incident. The government assured them that the case was closed and the skin disease was unrelated. But within a few days the disease spread and hundreds of lives were lost. Then it happened…the dead began to rise and a new nightmare was just beginning.

Elza Walker, 19, a female college is accepted to Raccoon University and heads off to Raccoon City on her motorcycle not knowing what is about to face her. Crashing her bike, she manages to evade zombies on the street and reaches the Raccoon Police Department. But it wasn’t the safe haven she expected as the entrance gate is about to be crushed down and policeman zombies are squeezing in.

Leon Scott Kennedy, 21, has just finished police training and is now a rookie cop. With all of the trouble on the streets, Leon waits for rescue teams on the police department helicopter pad. But as his comrades succumb to the zombies with each minute passing by, he decides to find an escape route to ensure his own safety.
