Resident Evil 1

Le jeu

Resident Evil 1, originally released for the PlayStation in 1996, is the game that defined the survival horror genre and launched one of Capcom’s most successful franchises. Set in the eerie Spencer Mansion on the outskirts of Raccoon City, players take on the role of S.T.A.R.S. members Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine as they investigate strange murders and uncover the terrifying truth behind the Umbrella Corporation’s experiments. The game is known for its tense atmosphere, fixed camera angles, limited resources, and puzzle-solving elements, all of which heightened the sense of dread. Iconic enemies like the shambling zombies, the terrifying dogs, and the first appearance of the Tyrant cemented its legacy. Despite its famously cheesy voice acting, Resident Evil 1 captivated audiences worldwide and set the standard for survival horror games for years to come. PSX
