Resident Evil 3 is a survival horror video game developed and published by Capcom. Originally released in 1999 for the PlayStation console, it is the third main installment in the Resident Evil series. The game was later remade and released for modern platforms in April 2020.
Set in the midst of a zombie outbreak in the fictional Raccoon City, Resident Evil 3 follows former S.T.A.R.S. (Special Tactics and Rescue Service) member Jill Valentine as she attempts to escape the city while being pursued by the relentless bioweapon known as Nemesis. Along the way, Jill encounters other survivors, navigates through hazardous environments, and unravels the conspiracy behind the outbreak orchestrated by the sinister Umbrella Corporation.
The game features a third-person perspective, with players controlling Jill as she explores the streets, buildings, and underground facilities of Raccoon City. Gameplay consists of exploration, puzzle-solving, and combat against hordes of zombies and other mutated creatures created by the T-virus outbreak.
One of the standout features of Resident Evil 3 is the introduction of the Nemesis, a towering and relentless pursuer sent by Umbrella to eliminate any remaining S.T.A.R.S. members. The Nemesis relentlessly stalks Jill throughout the game, creating tension and forcing players to make split-second decisions to evade or confront the deadly creature.
The remake of Resident Evil 3 modernizes the original game with updated graphics, redesigned environments, and enhanced gameplay mechanics. The remake also expands on certain aspects of the story and characters, providing players with a fresh and immersive experience while staying true to the spirit of the original.
With its intense atmosphere, thrilling encounters, and gripping storyline, Resident Evil 3 continues to be celebrated as a landmark title in the survival horror genre. Whether experiencing the original classic or the modern remake, players can expect a terrifying and unforgettable journey through the zombie-infested streets of Raccoon City.
