At Tokyo Game Show today, Capcom has revealed a new entry in the Resident Evil series: Umbrella Corps.

If you're a fan of the slow-paced, survival horror of the original Resident Evil series, this definitely won't be your cup of tea as Umbrella Corps strays far, far away from the shuffling of the undead and pits humans against humans in a quick, third-person competitive shooter.

Armed to the teeth with weapons, ammunition, and an icepick, Umbrella Corps will focus on intense team-based matches in simple game modes such as the playable-at-TGS 'One Life Mode'. According to Capcom, in this mode "every player gets one life per round and must not only face the other team, but also contend with other classic RE enemies that prowl the map."

Umbrella Corps will exist solely as a digital experience coming to PlayStation 4 and PC in 2016, and will run you about £25.
