A New Map and A New Creature Are Hitting Umbrella Corp.

ZOMBIES!!!

New details on Resident Evil-inspired multiplayer shooter Umbrella Corps. Capcom has announced a new “Antarctic Base” map from Resident Evil Code: Veronica and a new creature type called “Mutated Zombie”
 

“Antarctic Base” Map
The Antarctic Base, set within the Umbrella research facility, was never repaired after the deadly T-virus incident witnessed in Resident Evil Code: Veronica. The base remains in its heavily destroyed state, featuring a vertically expansive play area covering three floors that allow players to endure a thrilling fast-paced round of hide and seek gameplay. Perhaps the most tactical map in the game, players can utilize cover points, interwoven ventilation ducts, and ladders to unleash deadly surprise attacks on their foes.

“Mutated Zombies” Creature Type
Also being added into the shooting mayhem are the special “Mutated Zombies” that can be found in the single player Experiment Mode’s Antarctic Base map and in the Multi-Mission Mode’s SP DNA Hunter ruleset. Featuring advanced states of mutation, there are many viruses spreading across the infected zones in Umbrella Corps and it’s unclear whether the T-virus or C-virus is responsible for these blood thirsty enemies. Harder to defeat than normal zombies, not only are they unaffected by the Zombie Jammer, but they are also able to render the Zombie Jammer temporarily ineffective against other creatures near the player.

Oh No!! Umbrella Corps was Delayed

Big news hit for Resident Evil fans today. Originally set to release This May, Umbrella Corps was just delayed last minute and is now rescheduled to be released June 21st. Sad, I know. The reason behind the delay was “so the team can spend some extra time optimizing the game.” Let’s hope that is the real reason, because I bet all of the RE fans want to get their RE fix as soon as possible. On the brighter side Capcom has given us a first look at the new “Customization” aspect of Umbrella Corps in the Video Below.
