LP Timeframe: September 30th - November 19th, 2025
The Resident Evil series is one of the most influential survival horror franchises of all time, pioneering atmospheric gameplay, limited resources and tense encounters with the undead. Since its debut in 1996, the series has blended puzzles, exploration and horror in a way that has become a genre standard. With its mix of terrifying enemies, memorable characters and cinematic storytelling, Resident Evil has remained a cornerstone of gaming for decades.
Released in 2003 for the Nintendo GameCube, Resident Evil 0 serves as a prequel to the original game, exploring the events that led to the infamous mansion incident. Developed by Capcom, the game introduced unique mechanics such as the "partner zapping system", where players can switch between controlling S.T.A.R.S. medic Rebecca Chambers and convicted ex-soldier Billy Coen. The game is remembered for its challenging puzzles, eerie setting aboard a doomed train and abandoned facilities, and its deep dive into Umbrella's sinister origins.
InvictusBM LP #012
Two InvictusBM firsts: the first survival horror LP, and the first Resident Evil LP! I love Resident Evil 1 and 4, but I don't have a lot of knowledge on the series as a whole, and therefore decided to start my Resident Evil LP saga with the events prior to RE1. I've only ever played this game up until around 2/3 of the way through the train section, so for 90% of the game, this is a blind LP. This LP lasted for 26 episodes.
