Capcom brings the Resident Evil series back to the Nintendo WiiTM with Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, the sequel to the highly successful Resident Evil®:The Umbrella Chronicles.

The year is 2002. US Government Agents Leon S. Kennedy and Jack Krauser have been sent to South America to investigate the mysterious disappearance of young girls as well as rumors of a new viral outbreak. The events that unfold will recall a dark journey into the past where the betrayals and horrors of Resident Evil 2 and Code Veronica come full circle. Can memories of the past help stop the biological terror that has resurfaced to threaten the future of humankind again?

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles sends a full cast of characters into a world where the lines between good and evil are blurred and the potential to go to the dark side lies within everyone.

These features help make the game accessible for both the hardcore and casual gamer.
