Summary
A sequel to the novel by Hideaki Sena, Parasite Eve is a stand-alone Action RPG/Horror video game from Square Enix (AKA Square back at the time of release), which takes place in New York City around Christmas time. NYPD officer Aya Brea attends an Opera that turns into a chaotic tragedy when performers and audience members begin to combust spontaneously. The perpetrator, Eve, plans to spread mitochondria that will cause all humans to combust, and Aya has six days to stop it. Players will acquire and upgrade guns from her department and travel throughout New York City with her partner as they try to thwart Eve's plans, battling through traps and mutated creatures. In addition, players will engage in real-time-but-pausible action combat, targeting foes' weak points with firearms to disarm and take them down. Despite having two sequels, the franchise has been largely dormant for years until a recent trademark acquired by Square Enix spurred rumors of a remake.
