Capcom officially announced Resident Evil 5 on July 20, 2005. It was released on March 5, 2009 in Japan and March 13, 2009 in North America and Europe. A Gold Edition release of the game followed and was released the following year. Resident Evil 5 was released for the Nintendo Switch in the fall of 2019.
The game was later ported to multiple platforms, with the Gold Edition being the base. In 2015, it was reported for Microsoft Windows via Steam as part of the Move server, while it was based on the Xbox 360 Gold Edition version. This version was later released on Nvidia Shield TV in 2016 and next-gen consoles (PS4/Xbox One), with all previously released Gold Edition content. Additionally, the next-gen ports received an exclusive Mercenaries United Mode, as well as the previously PC-exclusive No Mercy variant of Mercenaries Mode.
Resident Evil 5 Torrent Story Abridged
The game begins in 2009, six years after the destruction of Umbrella and 11 years after the destruction of Raccoon City. Chris Redfield is sent to investigate possible biological weapons smuggling in Africa. Upon arriving at the Kijuju Autonomous Zone, Chris meets his partner, Sheva Alomar, from the BSAA West Africa branch. Together, they try to meet up with the BSAA “alpha team,” who were trying to intercept a B.O.W smuggler named Ricardo Irving. When Chris arrives in town, most of the townspeople have already been infected with type 2 Plagas, though they initially refrain from attacking Chris and Sheva (as they have not yet been ordered), instead ignoring them or giving them a hostile look. However, the situation quickly escalates as the local contact is publicly executed and the mob agitator discovers their presence, resulting in an open confrontation between the two agents and crowds of Plaga infect Majini.
Barely escaping from Majini, Chris and Sheva make their way through the city and encounter Captain Dechant, the only remaining member of the Alpha team. Dechant is fatally wounded, however, and warns them of Irving’s deception before handing over a data file and succumbing to his injuries. Soon after, the two find themselves face to face with a bizarre and dangerous creature apparently made of leech worms, with Chris correctly assuming it was responsible for the alpha team’s destruction. They destroy the creature by locking it in an incinerator room and activating the flame throwers, then send the newly acquired data to headquarters. Later, the West African BSAA Delta team finds and rescues the pair from a mob of Majini on motorcycles, and Captain Josh Stone, leader of the Delta team, offers Chris a memory card that contains images of research material. Among them is an image of Chris’ supposedly dead partner and close friend Jill Valentine. Chris and Sheva continue their search for Irving and eventually corner him in a building beyond the mines, though he escapes with the help of a mysterious hooded figure (later revealed to have brainwashed Jill) and unleashes a bat-based B.O.W.< /p>
