Resident Evil Deck Building Game: Outbreak

Resident Evil Deck Building Game: Outbreak arrives as the first expansion for the 2011 classic, adding a fresh mode that puts everyone in danger of becoming infected. Outbreak Mode acts like a tension timer: each round, infection cards may turn players into zombies, who then re‑enter the game as new infected characters, attacking the survivors. To balance the chaos, the expansion introduces four new heroes – Kevin, Ryman, David King and Mark Wilkins – each with unique abilities that help keep the team alive while the clock ticks. The box contains 150 extra cards, a themed storage box, damage counters and card dividers, all designed to tame the deck‑building and pool‑building clutter the game creates. Core mechanics stay the same—deck, bag and pool building, hand management, open drafting—but now with an extra layer of infection risk. Playtime remains brisk at 30‑45 minutes, and the learning curve stays low, making it perfect for those who already know the base game or want to dive into the Resident Evil universe without hassle. If you enjoy cooperative horror games with a deck‑building twist and don’t mind the chance of becoming the monster, Outbreak delivers exactly that, offering plenty of replay value and tense moments that make each session feel fresh.
