Masachika Kawata, producer of Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, recently had a chance to speak about the game at the RE5 launch event. Kawata wanted to emphasize that The Darkside Chronicles is going to be “very dark” and that ‘dark’ is an important word for the title.
“What we’re looking to do is go back to a ‘very dark’ style of Resident Evil. ‘Dark’ is really a key word for this game. It will be shown in horror, in the storyline, in the emotions that the characters go through. [The development team at Cavia is] putting a lot of care, a lot of attention into [improving] how the camera system works in a rail-based shooter.”
