Resident Evil: Terrore in Calabria

Resident Evll: Terrore in Calabria is the latest installment of the Resident Evil series.
As the name says, it takes place in Cagoscima, an imaginary city in the southern Italian region of Calabria (inspired by Catanzaro), and it starts an entirely new story arc, starring three new freely-switchable protagonists who are nicknamed "Famiglia Taneda" as they become an adopted family: former criminal Minato Chindamo, soldier Lisa Taneda, and mysterious monster-girl Anna Satori, with vastly different arsenals, martial arts and minimal gunplay for Minato, various military guns as Lisa, and monstrous superpowers as Anna.
== Plot ==
You can choose to play the three prologues in any order, before the protagonists meet in Buracca.
Cagoscima is in lockdown, under military surveillance.
Italian soldier Lisa Taneda is helping with the surveillance of the village Albino, near Cagoscima, still an apparently safe place, when suddenly, another soldier who is one of her companions starts shooting on civilians. It's at the end that she hears about the riot in Siano penitentiary.
Meanwhile, in prison, a terrorist disguised as an agent injects a virus in another guard, causing guards and inmates alike to start turning into zombies, forcing the police to release the inmates to guide them to a safe zone. This situation causes a prison riot, in which inmate Minato Chindamo apparently refuses to take part because he's planning to flee from prison in the surrounding chaos. Minato behaves weirdly but seems to be familiar with all of that, and compares the chaos to Dark Soul, a video game he had played. He steals a car to return to his hometown, Buracca. 
== Playable characters ==
* Minato Chindamo: A former criminal, who fled from prison using the chaos. He had once killed many people in a train in Lamezia train station using the experimental form of the zombifying agent, as he had been conscripted by a cult called Beati Paoli: he ended up in prison because the cult threw him under the bus after finding out he had survived. 
* Lisa Taneda
* Anna Satori
== Trivia ==
* The city of Cagoscima is a pun between "Catanzaro", "Kagoshima" (a real city, but not in Italy) and "vai a cagare" (an Italian expression meaning "go fuck yourself!").
** A lot of placenames in Cagoscima are italianized Japanese words, such as Buracca coming from "Buraku" (a type of village or ghetto). 
* The protagonists are named Minato Chindamo, Lisa Taneda and Anna Satori because they're both Italian and Japanese names depending on whether you write them in katakana or in Kanji (being Italians, they are all in katakana).
* Chindamo appears to be a fan of the Soul series. He occasionally calls zombies and other biopunk abominations he sees "Roba da Dark Soul" (Italian for "Dark Soul stuff""). 
* Italians in this game behave more like Japanese than Americans, often bowing to each other. 
* Minato Chindamo's past as a criminal is explicitly inspired by Japanese serial killers Shoko Asahara and Tsutomu Miyazaki.
