Resident Evil 4 is the sixth installment in the Resident Evil series and is often noted for its departure from the fixed camera angles of earlier titles. It introduced an over-the-shoulder third-person perspective, faster-paced gunplay, and more dynamic controls. The game features larger, more open environments and a new AI system that enables enemies to coordinate attacks and attempt to corner the player. Enemies exhibit more human-like behavior, such as climbing ladders, opening doors, and using weapons.
The game's main protagonist is Leon S. Kennedy, one of the few survivors of the Raccoon City incident, who was recruited and trained by the US Government to become a special agent after they learned of his actions in Raccoon City. Now an agent for a special security agency, Leon is sent to Spain on a mission to rescue Ashley Graham, the President's daughter, who has been kidnapped by a mysterious cult organization.

A port of Resident Evil 4 for the PlayStation 2. Almost all of the GameCube's real-time cut scenes were converted into movie files to maintain higher quality. Furthermore, the quality of voices and sound effects outside the cut-scenes had been reduced due to the rapid consumption of disc space and audio RAM constraints. Capcom added new content specifically for this port to compensate for the late release, including minigames, documentaries, and costumes.
