Aniplex and JOYCITY team up for a new mobile strategy spin on the Resident Evil universe, launching in 151 countries

The Resident Evil universe is getting a tactical twist. Resident Evil Survival Unit, the new mobile strategy title from Aniplex and JOYCITY, is set to launch worldwide on November 18, 2025, rolling out across 151 countries and regions.

Yep, it’s global—and if the 2 million pre-registrations are anything to go by, fans are more than ready to deploy.

Strategy Meets Survival Horror

This isn’t your usual zombie-blasting fare. Resident Evil Survival Unit leans into real-time strategy with mobile-first design, blending survival mechanics, tactical gameplay, and classic Resident Evil vibes. It’s designed to be easy to pick up but hard to master—and you won’t be fighting alone.

Players can form units, plan their defences, and battle through tense, post-outbreak scenarios, all while climbing the global ranks. It’s Capcom’s iconic universe, reimagined for the touchscreen.
