Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles

Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles (2007)

Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles is a 2007 rail shooter, developed by Capcom and Cavia for the Wii, the game was included in 2012 (alongside its sequel Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles) in the Resident Evil Chronicles HD Collection for the PlayStation 3. This game is a spinoff of the Resident Evil video game series and is set during the events of Resident Evil 0, Resident Evil Remake, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis and an exclusive scenario set one year before Resident Evil 4, in form of recollections of events from Umbrella archives.

The first scenario called "Train Derailment" based on Resident Evil 0 follows Rebecca Chambers and Billy Coen, the second scenario called "Mansion Incident" based on Resident Evil Remake follows Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield, the third scenario called "Raccoon's Destruction" based on Resident Evil 3: Nemesis follows Jill Valentine and Carlos Oliveira, the fourth scenario called "Umbrella's End" based on new material follows Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield during the assault on Umbrella's last stronghold in Russia. Some bonus scenarios can be unlocked featuring Albert Wesker, Ada Wong, Hunk and Richard Aiken.

All weapons featured in the game are reused models from Resident Evil 0, Resident Evil Remake, Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil Outbreak. No weapon appears in the player's hands, they only appear on the HUD, pickups and grenades, some appears during cutscenes. All handguns have the same power and feature infinite ammo.

The following weapons appear in the video game Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles:

Pistols

Beretta 92FS Brigadier "Samurai Edge"

The S.T.A.R.S standard-issue custom Beretta 92FS Brigadier is called the "Samurai Edge 2", this is Rebecca (during the "Train Derailment" and "Nightmare" scenarios), Jill (during the "Mansion Incident", "Raccoon's Destruction" and "Umbrella's End" scenarios), Chris (during the "Mansion Incident" and "Umbrella's End" scenarios), Richard (during the "Nightmare" scenario) and Wesker (during the "Beginnings" and "Rebirth" scenarios)'s main weapons.

It seems that only one Samurai Edge model have been modeled for pre-rendered cinematics, as all S.T.A.R.S. have the same gun despite Jill, Chris and Wesker having different ones. By judging from the cross color and the medaillon it seems to be the standard model of the Samurai Edge. Wesker also incorrectly used the standard model during the all pre-rendered cinematics instead of his distinctive two-toned gun. However during gameplay he correctly have his own gun but without attachments. It reuses the same 3D model as in Resident Evil 0.
