Joycity Releases 1st Anniversary Update for 'Resident Evil Survival Unit

Joycity announced on November 6 that it has added new heroes and content to commemorate the first anniversary of Resident Evil Survival Unit, a mobile strategy game co-developed with Aniplex.

According to Joycity, global cumulative downloads for Resident Evil Survival Unit have surpassed 8 million. Based on Capcom's Resident Evil IP, the game features strategic gameplay where players collect iconic characters from the original series to cooperate or compete with users worldwide.

The newly joining heroes are 'Agent Leon S. Kennedy', 'Ada Wong (RE:4)', and 'Albert Wesker'. The new 'Villain System' content allows players to experience gameplay distinct from combat, such as developing their Master Villains through exploring ruins, dialogue, and quests. A 'Costume System' that alters the appearance of existing heroes has also been introduced.

The anniversary event hands out rewards through daily check-ins and '1st Anniversary Chests'. A '1st Anniversary Footsteps' feature has also been added, allowing players to view their personal play records. The final page includes a thank-you letter alongside a '1st Anniversary Frame' and '1st Anniversary Nameplate' available to all players.

Growth support is also underway for returning players. Upon returning, check-ins grant rewards such as Legendary Heroes, alongside resource and speed-up items. Dedicated buffs increase content rewards and accelerate construction and troop training speeds.

Resident Evil Survival Unit will also participate in TwitchCon, a streaming event held in San Diego, US, on November 13 local time. The game will operate an interactive demo space inside the Capcom US booth, providing game merchandise to visitors who complete the demo on site.
