đź§Ş Plot Summary
In the depths beneath Raccoon City lies The Hive, a top‑secret underground research facility run by the Umbrella Corporation. When a viral outbreak turns the staff into ravenous creatures, the artificial intelligence system seals the complex and initiates a deadly “kill protocol.” A special commando team—led by Alice, a security operative suffering from amnesia—descends into the labyrinthine corridors to contain the outbreak and rescue any survivors.
But as the team fights through reanimated scientists, razor‑clawed hounds, and super‑mutant horrors, Alice begins to uncover her own mysterious connection to the T‑Virus. Betrayals and revelations collide in a pulse‑pounding struggle for survival, where every door could hide an unspeakable terror…and every friend may be the next victim.
