Capcom announces Biohazard cell phone game

Capcom has announced it will release a game called Biohazard iSurvivor for the iMode cell phone service. In the game, players become a member of the S.T.A.R.S. team in order to investigate a mysterious incident in Racoon City and fight zombies. The city will have items such as weapons and green herbs that will aid players in their quest. Players can also team up with other players to eliminate a group of zombies or Tyrant himself, trade items and information, and solve puzzles cooperatively.

Killing enemies will help the player's character gain experience and acquire different abilities such as lock picking or the ability to find items easier. Team members vary from the offensive "attackers" to the healing agent "rescuers." Other than the main game, players can also play against other players in a survival game as well. The iMode Biohazard iSurvivor service begins this spring in Japan.
