Summary

It was released for free on February 15, 2019, acting as a series of "what-if" side-stories for the characters of gunstore owner Robert Kendo, the mayor's estranged daughter Katherine Warren, a U.S.S. member codenamed Ghost, and Sheriff Daniel Cortini, exploring the various scenarios in which they survived the events of the main game.

Storyline

The Ghost Survivors follows a non-canon storyline where each campaign is set as a "what-if" scenario. In Kendo's No Time To Mourn scenario, he is seen pointing a gun to his head in front of his deceased daughter, Emma Kendo. Before Kendo pulls the trigger, he receives a call from a friend who states he's got a helicopter and asks Kendo to come to the rendezvous point. Kendo is able to arrive at the destination, and leaves Raccoon City safely on the helicopter. In Katherine Warren's Runaway scenario, Katherine is able to fight off Brian Irons at the Director's Room and even manages to kill him. She starts making her way to the Jail at the Police Station's B1 floor, it is then revealed that her plan all along was to free Ben Bertolucci, who apparently she has an affection with. In Ghost's Forgotten Soldier scenario, it's revealed that when Ada falls down the shaft, the G-Virus sample also fell and ended up on the hands of the U.S.S. member simply known as "Ghost". With his objective now complete, Ghost sets out to leave NEST, however, upon reaching the cable car, Ada Wong appears behind him, pointing a gun to his head and taking back the sample. In Daniel Cortini's No Way Out scenario, the Sheriff is able to kill the attacking zombie at the Mizoil Gas Station, but multiple zombies start raiding the gas station and Daniel tries to survive for as long as he can. Eventually, Leon Scott Kennedy arrives at the scene and helps Daniel, the two then leave the place on Leon's car.
