‘Umbrella Corps’ Video Tours the Tricell HQ

Published

on

Over the last few weeks, we’ve revisited the village from Resident Evil 4’s memorable opening act and the shantytown it inspired in the sequel’s memorable, albeit less so, opener. Now it’s time to get properly acquainted with one of the original locales we’ll have the opportunity to devastate when the squad-based multiplayer Resident Evil spin-off Umbrella Corps releases in May.

The budget-priced ($30) title won’t be getting a physical release when it comes to the PC and PS4. Its competitive multiplayer will support matches with up to six players, and will focus on “quick, intense matches in compact battle zones themed from historic Resident Evil environments,” such as the ones I mentioned above.

It will also come with a Mercenaries-esque single-player mode called The Experiment. This new video from Capcom France shows off the Tricell headquarters.

Osgood Perkins (The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Gretel & Hansel, the upcoming Longlegs) wrote the screenplay for the feature film adaptation and he also directed the upcoming movie.

“In The Monkey, when twin brothers Hal and Bill discover their father’s old monkey toy in the attic, a series of gruesome deaths starts occurring all around them. The brothers decide to throw the monkey away and move on with their lives, growing apart over the years.

“But when the mysterious deaths begin again, the brothers must reunite to find a way to destroy the monkey for good before it takes the lives of everyone close to them.”

James Wan is producing with Atomic Monster partner Michael Clear (M3GAN), and C2 Motion Picture Group’s Jason Cloth (Joker) and Dave Caplan (Babylon).
