Capcom, in collaboration with Aniplex and JoyCity, has announced Resident Evil: Survival Unit as a real-time strategy title for iOS and Android. Revealed at Anime Expo 2025 in Paris, the game reimagines the series’ survival-horror core by placing players in command of specialized squads tasked with securing biohazard zones. A global release across North America, Europe, Japan, South Korea, and other regions is planned, and an online showcase on July 10 will detail its tactical systems and narrative setting.

Resident Evil: Survival Unit challenges players to manage resources, fortify bases, and undertake mission-based objectives within familiar Resident Evil locales tied to the Umbrella Corporation’s pre-collapse era. The official website highlights both cooperative PvE and competitive PvP modes, a free-to-play framework supported by optional in-game purchases, and a user interface optimized for touch controls. Through this partnership, Capcom, Aniplex, and JoyCity aim to preserve the franchise’s established lore and atmosphere while tailoring gameplay to mobile audiences.
