Capcom has revealed in its blog that a new map set in Kijuju location of "Resident Evil 5" is to be incorporated in its "Umbrella Corps" game. Earlier, the "Resident Evil" themed maps like The Village, Umbrella Lab and Tricell Head Quarters were included in the game, while the game's official trailer was also launched showing these locations. But a few days back, Capcom has shared some interesting news about the new map of Kijuju location that is to be added to the game.

Kijuju is a fictional African city that was portrayed in "Resident Evil 5." The map features the destroyed settlements of the Majini, the inhabitants of Kijuju who were infected by the Plaga Parasite that had turned their race into monstrous zombies.

This will be the biggest location in the game and a new battle zone, consisting of a number of open areas for shooting missions and many webbed underground passages that will be available on the gameplay. In addition to battling with other teams and threats, the players will also have to combat with the Majini zombies during various missions. A new set of screenshots of the Kijuju location has also been released by Capcom.

"Umbrella Corps" is set to support up to six players in its multi player mode. The game is also available in single player and a wave based survival mode. Tom Marks from PC Gamer has already quoted that, "I got to play it at PAX South and it turns out that all I wanted was to play more."

The game is set to be released only for PlayStation 4 and PC. It is expected that the release for other gaming platforms will be soon, after the initial release.
