Resident Evil was created by Shinji Mikami at Capcom, with the first title launching on the PlayStation on March 22, 1996. Known as Biohazard in Japan, it took inspiration from Alone in the Dark to define the survival horror genre.
The T-Virus, or Tyrant Virus, is a fictional bio-weapon developed by Umbrella Corporation that reanimates the dead and mutates living organisms into Bio-Organic Weapons (BOWs), including the iconic shambling zombies of the original games.
Resident Evil 4 (2005) introduced the over-the-shoulder third-person camera that became the template for modern action shooters. Its design heavily influenced titles like Gears of War, Dead Space, and The Last of Us.
