Story continues below.

Raccoon City is located in the Midwestern United States. Its daily life was about to be transformed by the pharmaceutical company Umbrella Corporation. The first to notice was the police special unit S.T.A.R.S. The truth behind the disappearances in a Western-style house in the Arklay Mountains is a biological disaster (Resident Evil) caused by a leak of the t-virus, a biological weapon, and the S.T.A.R.S. unit that goes to investigate is decimated. The few remaining S.T.A.R.S. members discover that the Umbrella Corporation is the cause of the incident. However, Raccoon City has developed under the influence of the Umbrella Corporation, and even the police force is controlled by the Umbrella Corporation. After being punished and pressured, their accusations are suppressed. However, no matter how much they tried to fix the situation, once the wheels had gone haywire, there was no way to get back on track. Mutations of a "cannibalistic disease" begin to occur in the town, and ferocious wild dogs begin to roam the streets. Various seemingly trivial mutations spread the infection under the surface and irreversibly dye the city. The countdown to the critical point is underway, unbeknownst to the public.
