The pair team up in Kijuju, Africa and are instantly launched into the action as infected humans, or 'Majini', rush them in the alleys of a small village.

The fifth instalment sees iconic Resident Evil protagonist Chris Redfield partner up with series first-timer Sheva Alomar, who, for some reason, hasn't been seen again since. The main game and the DLC's are story-based, meaning you'll follow a set narrative, all surrounding the classic Resident Evil story frame - something has gone wrong, people are eating each other, mutants are appearing, and it's up to you to put a stop to these grotesque beings and set things right. Lost in Nightmares and Desperate Escape lets players hop on into a separate timeline from that of the main campaign as Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine, while the campaign stars Chris and Sheva Alomar. The Switch version specifically includes all of the DLC packs and modes.

Resident Evil 5 offers both single-player and co-op in its campaign, DLC, and multiplayer. This number is most likely going to get yet another boost when the sales numbers for the latest platform release drop as Resident Evil 5 and 6 were just recently added to the Switch library, bringing some 18+ action to the format.

Despite many holding Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 2 above the other major instalments in the series, the Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar-headlined, African village-set fifth instalment still stands as the most successful entry across the many platforms it's been available on (and gets close in the race for most successful Capcom entry).
