Resident Evil Zero, known in Japan as Biohazard is a survival horror game that was developed and published by Capcom for the Nintendo GameCube and released in 2002. It is the fifth game in the main Resident Evil series by release order (not counting the GameCube version of the original Resident Evil as a separate game) and was the last of the main titles to use the original Resident Evil gameplay system prior to the release of Resident Evil 4. The game's storyline serves as a prequel to the first Resident Evil, covering Rebecca Chambers' ordeal a day prior to the Mansion incident. The main gameplay feature of Resident Evil Zero, dubbed the "partner zapping" system, is unique in the series. So, instead of choosing a single character to play through the whole game, the player controls the two main characters, Rebecca Chambers (S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team's medic, seen in the original Resident Evil) and Billy Coen (an escaped convict) simultaneously through the entire game. Both characters can travel together, with one character being controlled by the player and other by the computer, or split up and search separate areas each at the same time. This dual control is central to solving some of the puzzles in the game.
The difference between both characters is that Rebecca can acquire chemicals with her mixing kit and can get into tight spaces, but is more fragile to enemy attacks. In contrast, Billy can handle heavy objects, has an oil lighter and can sustain more damage than Rebecca, but cannot mix
herbs (in contrast from previous games, in which any character could mix herbs).
