help Resident Evil 5 FAQ
Can Resident Evil 5 be played entirely in co-op?
Yes, the campaign was built around Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar and supports two-player cooperative play. A second player can join online or, in supported console versions, use local split-screen.
Who controls Sheva when Resident Evil 5 is played solo?
The game assigns Sheva to computer-controlled AI while the player controls Chris. You can exchange weapons, ammunition, and healing items with her, but her limited inventory requires more active management than a conventional escort character.
What story should be played before Resident Evil 5?
Resident Evil 5 continues Chris Redfield's conflict with Albert Wesker and references events stretching back to the first Resident Evil. The Lost in Nightmares bonus episode is especially relevant because it depicts Chris and Jill Valentine's earlier confrontation with Wesker.
How different is Resident Evil 5 from Resident Evil 4?
It retains Resident Evil 4's over-the-shoulder aiming and action-heavy combat but builds encounters around a permanent partner. The African setting, co-op inventory system, and emphasis on coordinated firefights make it less solitary than Leon Kennedy's campaign.
