What Makes This Game Special

Hashimoto’s Vision: “The title offers a fresh take on the ‘Resident Evil’ universe, introducing a strategy game system designed specifically for mobile users. While distinct from Capcom’s traditional ‘Resident Evil’ series, it delivers a unique experience that stays true to the essence of the franchise.”
Strategic Gameplay Focus
Unlike traditional Resident Evil survival horror experiences, Survival Unit embraces real-time strategy mechanics tailored for mobile platforms. This approach allows the franchise to explore new gameplay territories while maintaining its core identity.
The collaboration between Capcom, Joycity, and Aniplex suggests a high-production-value mobile experience that could rival premium mobile strategy games.
