Capcom Announce UK Takeover for Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon CityEver fancied taking part in a live Zombie hunt? Well, from 22nd March you can do exactly that! A one of a kind augmented reality zombie experience is hitting the UK, all in the name of celebrating Capcom’s Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City release.

How can you take part though? Well, an iPhone and Android app will be released, with a lucky few gamers able to take part in missions across Bristol, Manchester and London.

The augmented reality zombies are being built by Digicave, who say:

“We are all about bringing another layer of digital information, entertainment and engagement to the real world. To do this with an all-time great gaming franchise such as a Resident Evil was a dream come true for the team here.

The zombies are truly frightening, to see them popping up at locations around the UK – this is going to be something truly incredible, a perfect way to bring the terror of Resident Evil onto the streets and into the lives of gamers.”

If you get involved, don’t forget to use the #REORCUK hash tag on Twitter.
