Resident Evil – Code: Veronica – 2.745 million units sold
Resident Evil – Code: Veronica is the result of an unsuccessful attempt to port Resident Evil 2 to the Sega Saturn. It was intended to be its true sequel and is still referred to as such by its creators, and what we now know as Resident Evil 3 was going to be a spin-off title.
Set several months after the events of Resident Evil 2, Code: Veronica follows siblings Claire and Chris Redfield attempting to survive a viral outbreak at a remote prison facility located in the Southern Ocean, and later in Antarctica.
Code: Veronica was the first RE title to use 3D real-time backgrounds, eschewing the pre-rendered art of earlier titles. It also a more European gothic horror aspect in its art and writing style, setting it apart from other titles in the series and giving it a unique flavor.
