Train Derailment
The first scenario chronicles the original outbreak of the T-virus in the Arklay Mountains (as portrayed in Resident Evil 0).
Rebecca Chambers, a S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team member, forms an unlikely alliance with a convicted felon who was en route
to his own execution before his convoy ran into some unexpected trouble. Like many of the characters that make up this
drama, Billy Coen is not who he appears.
Rebecca Chambers
14
A member of the S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team, Rebecca is an
expert in the manufacture and preparation of pharma-
ceuticals and serves as the team’s medic. She is highly
talented and graduated college at the young age of 18.
Although she looks delicate, she is a woman of action
and calm in the face of danger. She lacks experience
in actual combat, so she can appear childish at
times and can sometimes hesitate when finding
herself overwhelmed by an unknown situation.
primagames.com
Billy Coen
Originally a second lieutenant in the U.S.M.C.,
Billy Coen was sentenced to death for first-
degree murder for his role in the deaths of 23
people. Billy is perceptive and can expertly
handle any weapon. His body, hardened by
Marine training, is a match for any monster in 15
battle. He is a cynical man of few words, but he
possesses a keen sense of justice and a deep
passion for his duty.
Jill Valentine
Alpha Team’s Jill Valentine is very dexterous and is
an expert at picking locks, earning her the somewhat
awkward title of “Master of Unlocking.” She is not only
highly skilled in bomb disposal, but is excellent at
breaking down any situation and determining the best
course of action. Her years of U.S. Army Delta Force
training have helped make her a crack shot.
After the destruction of Raccoon City, both she and
16 Chris have joined a private biohazard containment
unit with the goal of taking Umbrella down once and
for all. Serious, with a strong sense of justice, she’s very
direct in her actions. She typically shows only her tough
side to others, but there are times when she lets her
guard down and shows a softer side.
primagames.com
Chris Redfield
Chris Redfield is a member of the S.T.A.R.S.
Alpha Team. His marksmanship is #1
amongst the sharpshooters assembled in
Alpha. He was once a pilot in the U.S.A.F.
and has been rigorously trained in hand-
to-hand as well as knife combat. He has
pursued Umbrella and the people behind
it even after the fall of Raccoon City by
helping to organize a private biohazard
containment unit.
17
An excellent observer with keen insight,
his sense of right and wrong is unwavering.
This is often a source of conflict between
Chris and his superiors. He has a younger
sister, Claire, of whom he is very protective.
Carlos Oliveira
A young mercenary with Native American blood
in his veins, Carlos Oliveira was active in antigov-
18 ernment guerilla operations in South America. After
government forces wiped out his organization, he
was scouted by Umbrella Corporation to join their
U.B.C.S. special ops unit. He is an expert in heavy
weaponry and vehicle operation, making him a
valuable asset. He is warm-hearted and is known to
joke around. Perhaps as a result of being raised
amidst violence, he is brave and always willing
to throw himself in the middle of danger.
Umbrella’s End
Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine team up again, but this time they are part of a bio-weapon containment team whose
mission is to put an end to Umbrella’s horrific experiments once and for all. Their destination is an Umbrella base located
somewhere in southern Russia.
Subchapters
Various subchapters allow you to play as characters with somewhat looser affiliations than those of the main story arc. Being
bad feels so good!
primagames.com
Albert Wesker
One of the men behind the biohazard
outbreak, and always seen with his signature
shades on, Albert Wesker possesses 19
knowledge about biological engineering and
used to be an agent for Umbrella. He was
planted in S.T.A.R.S. to spy on the agents and
was even made their commanding officer.
Wesker took particular note of Chris and
his combat prowess while in charge of the
team. He is cold-blooded and has no qualms
about betraying the people who place their faith
in him. He betrayed and killed Marcus, lured the
S.T.A.R.S. teams into the mansion and nearly wiped
them out, and even pretended to be dead to join
Umbrella’s rival company.
Wesker was the one who sent Ada Wong to
retrieve the G-virus and was involved in the incidents
at Rockfort Island. He appears intent on gathering
as much data as possible on viral weaponry. Since
injecting himself with a virus during the events at the
mansion, his power has grown far beyond that of a
normal human being.
primagames.com
HUNK
HUNK has carried out a large
number of successful opera-
tions, many of which he
was the only one to return
alive from, earning him the
nickname “Grim Reaper.” He
is a member of Umbrella special 21
forces and was the operative
that single-handedly retrieved the
G-virus despite the rest of his unit
being wiped out by the G creature that
used to be William Birkin. Cold, silent, and
devoid of emotion, he is a human machine.
He has never shown his true nature, and
even his true face is unknown.

Submachine Guns
Submachine guns are the antithesis of shotguns. They lack the punch and crowd-control
capabilities of the shotgun and eat through ammo like a starving Zombie at a brain buffet.
However, they are as accurate up close as they are at a distance, making them the perfect
weapon for picking enemies off at range. Further, they have the fastest reload speed in the
game, allowing for near nonstop fire.
Because of their high ammo consumption, effective use of a submachine gun is paramount The single-fire capability

Magnums
Magnums are incredibly devastating handguns, the most powerful of which will cut down most enemies with a single round.
The velocity of the round is so great that it can travel through multiple enemies, doing damage to each. Reload speed is also
fast, second only to the submachine gun. More importantly, they make great boss killers as well, but make every shot count
because ammo is relatively scarce.
Overall, the Magnum is a very good choice for a secondary weapon, once it becomes available. Until then, take an upgraded

Completing a scenario chapter generally unlocks the next chapter, and may unlock a subchapter. Once a subchapter is
unlocked you can play it at any time. Because of this non-linearity, we have chosen to divide the walkthrough chapter into two
parts. The first part deals with the 12 chapters in the main story arc while the second part deals with the 10 subchapters.

The Maps
Because of the “on-rail” nature of the game (movement is automatic), the maps were designed to provide information at a
glance. Just about everything you need to know is marked on each map, including item, file, and weapon locations; alternate
paths and secret doors; and boss battles. Further, numbered callouts correspond to a specific section of the walkthrough. Simply
match up the numbers to quickly gain more insight into the particular hazard you are facing. Here is a legend to help explain
the various icons we use on each map.

After Yawn’s health gauge is reduced to zero, a cutscene shows Richard heroically sacrificing his own safety to save
Rebecca. Critically wounded but ever hopeful, Richard assures Rebecca that someone will come to their aid.
Once awake, Wesker attempts to download files from Umbrella’s mainframe, but Red Queen, the program in charge of asset security, has
restricted his access. Enraged, he focuses instead on getting out before it’s too late.

Secret Level
The Secret Level is a challenging and fun shooting-gallery mini-game. There are 10 levels that each consist of the same two rounds.
Round one is the shooting gallery. Ten Zombies poke their heads up from behind the counter, one after another (in later
levels they run and crawl across the screen as well). Shoot as many as you can.
Round two starts when you turn to face the lab doorway. Suddenly a horde of Zombies rushes in. They take one hit to
kill, but the bad news is that so do you! Get hit and you start over.
After the second round on the tenth level, you square off
against the boss Zombie. Use your head to figure out how to put
him down.

BACKGROUND
Russia.
This section provides a recap of the events surrounding the infection and the crash of the Ecliptic
Express, the destruction of the Umbrella Management Training Facility, the destruction of the Arklay
Research Facility (the mansion), and the viral outbreak in and subsequent annihilation of
Raccoon City.
Resident Evil 0
Summary
Resident Evil 0 Digest 1
Bizarre murder cases with people
being found dead, their bodies half-
eaten, were being reported in the
areas near Raccoon City.
The city’s elite special forces unit,
S.T.A.R.S. (Special Tactics and Rescue
Service), sent Bravo Team to the scene.
However, due to a mysterious engine
failure, Bravo Team’s helicopter crash-
landed in the forest.
Bravo Team narrowly escaped with their
lives and stumbled onto a heavily damaged
prison convoy and the brutally dismembered
corpses of the Marines in charge. Enrico
Marini, Bravo Team’s commander, ordered that
a search be made for Billy Coen, a former Marine who escaped from the convoy. The newest member of
Bravo Team, Rebecca Chambers, discovered a train stopped in the woods and went inside to investigate.
Apparently the train had met with some kind of accident—she found all of the passengers dead. One of
the supposedly dead passengers came to life and attacked Rebecca.
Facing certain death, Rebecca was rescued by the prisoner, Billy Coen. Rebecca was still suspicious of
Billy but realized that they needed to work together if they wanted to survive the nightmare. Shortly
after, the train suddenly started to move. It accelerated and was rapidly approaching dangerous speeds.
To prevent the imminent derailment, the pair engaged the brake. However, it was too late and the
train rolled on its side. The two barely managed to escape the wreck.
Nearby was Umbrella’s Management Training Facility.

Keeper’s Diary
May 9, 1998
Played poker tonight with Scott and Alias from Security, and Steve from Research. Steve was the big winner, but I
think he was cheating. That scumbag.
May 10, 1998
One of the higher-ups assigned me to take care of a new creature. It looks like a skinned gorilla to me. I was
instructed to feed it live animals.
When I threw in a pig, the creature seemed to play with it—tearing off the pig’s legs and pulling out the guts
before it actually started eating.
May 11, 1998
At around 5 A.M., Scott woke me up. Scared the shit out of me, too. He was wearing a protective suit. He
handed me another one and told me to put it on. Said there’d been an accident in the basement lab. I just knew
something like this would happen. Those bastards in Research never sleep, not even on holidays, so it was only a
matter of time before one of them slipped up.
May 12, 1998
I’ve been wearing this damn space suit since yesterday. My skin’s getting grimy and feels itchy all over. The
goddamn dogs have been looking at me funny, so I decided not to feed them today. Screw ‘em.
May 13, 1998
Went to the Infirmary because my back is all swollen and feels itchy. They put a big bandage on it and told me I
didn’t need to wear the suit anymore. All I wanna do is sleep.
May 14, 1998
Found a big blister on my foot this morning. I ended up dragging my foot all the way to the dogs’ pen. They were
quiet all day, which is weird. Then I realized some of them had escaped. Maybe this is their way of getting back
at me for not feeding them the last three days. If anybody finds out, I’ll have my head handed to me.
May 16, 1998
A rumor is going around that a researcher who tried to escape the estate last night was shot. My entire body
feels hot and itchy and I’m sweating all the time now. I scratched the swelling on my arm and a piece of rotten
flesh just dropped off. What the hell’s happening to me?
May 19, 1998
Fever gone but itchy. Today hungry and eat doggie food.

S.T.A.R.S.
S.T.A.R.S. Notes
Special Tactics and Rescue Service, or S.T.A.R.S., was established within the Raccoon Police Department
and is divided into an Alpha Team and a Bravo Team. This elite group was formed to respond to
terrorism, organized crime, and emergencies too difficult for the regular police force to handle. Its
members include a hand-picked group of specialists, the best of the best. Their funding was provided by a
grant from private corporations, most notably Umbrella Corporation.

Red Queen Notes
Red Queen is the code name for the AI defense
system developed by Umbrella. The AI is
contained within U.M.F.-013. However, the AI
has unrestricted access to the entire Umbrella
network for administration, monitoring,
and carrying out certain procedures. This
additional functionality is a security fail-safe,
but in most circumstances, Red Queen is in
the background performing only its primary
monitoring function. In emergencies, it will
serve a more active role and protect sensitive
systems and data from intrusion along with
cleaning up hostiles. It is self-aware and
can take these measures based on its own
judgment.
U.M.F.-13
The 13th-generation supercomputer U.M.F.-13
is contained in the underground Raccoon
City research facility shelter. All of the data
gathered from the network of Umbrella’s
branches around the world is stored as a
backup on this mainframe. This wealth of
information is kept in one location to serve
as a safety measure should Umbrella run into
difficulty and need to be reestablished.

Umbrella Russian Branch Notes
This branch of Umbrella is a research lab located in the
it
Caucasus region, in the south of Russia. On the surface,
appears to be a government-operated chemic al process ing
plant, but it has been taken over by Umbrella after
the fall of the Soviet Union and maintained as a front.
Umbrella built facilities beneath the surface to perform
viral and B.O.W. research. It is Umbrella’s newest base
and serves as Sergei Vladimir’s headquarters.

Crimson Head Notes
The Crimson Head is a Zombie that has undergone a sudden
mutation, bringing with it a ferociousness surpassing that of a
standard Zombie. The mutation process requires that the Zombie
first be incapacitated. At this time, the creature’s body tissue is
reconstructed at the cellular level, resulting in renewed activity
as well as the tell-tale reddish color that gives the Crimson Head
its name. It possesses long, sharp claws and relentlessly pursues
victims with a speed unseen in other Zombies.
Crow Notes
Wild Crows were infected by the T-virus. Although their
appearance remains mostly unaltered by the infection, they have
grown more violent and are no longer frightened off by loud
sounds. The fact that they are capable of flight makes them an
extremely dangerous carrier for the virus.
Eliminator Notes
The Eliminator is a biological weapon created from a large
monkey by Dr. James Marcus. Because it’s based on a primate,
the creature is highly intelligent and capable of executing

When the Eliminator detects prey, hunger drives it to jump and
speed.
Hunter Notes
The Hunter was a battle B.O.W. born from a fertilized human
egg infused with reptilian DNA with the assistance of the
T-virus. It is extremely deadly in combat and possesses
large, sharp claws. It is intelligent enough to carry out basic
commands and can cut down prey with astonishing agility and
jumping power, making it truly deserving of the name Hunter.

Lisa Trevor Profile
Lisa Trevor was imprisoned for nearly 30 years in the
mansion and subjected to continual experiments that trans-
figured her into a monster. Numerous viral experiments
made her immune to death itself and soon led Birkin to
the discovery of the G-virus. Lisa has the disturbing habit
of peeling faces from her victims and placing them over
her own. There were repeated attempts to dispose of her,
but they all failed. She was eventually bound and left to
wander the halls of the mansion.

Plant 42 Notes
Plant 42 was created accidentally during the T-virus outbreak.
Researchers who had discovered the plant studied it with great
interest as its growth overwhelmed that of other plants.
Although it cannot move its trunk, it can lash out with
tentacle-like appendages to ensnare prey and drain
them of their blood for nutrients. It has also generated
many other self-defense mechanisms to protect itself
from would-be attackers.
