Raccoon City is a necropolis buried in grey ash and choked by wild weeds. The buildings are skeletons of concrete. There is no electricity; all light comes from tactical flashlights, flares, or lightning. The fog is dense and the environment is sterile, radioactive, or biologically contaminated (requiring masks or filters in certain zones).
Narrative Tone: Melancholic, tense, military, and psychological. The threat is not just biological (surviving B.O.Ws or terrorists), but the weight of memories. It feels like walking inside a nightmare from the past.
The focus is on tactical military infiltration combined with sci-fi horror. The story must progress through stealth, environmental analysis, hacking of old Umbrella terminals, and choreographed, fast, and brutal combat when discovered.
