RE6. Chris' campaign first stage. Unless you want the entire game to focus on that.

What's a good isolated setting a Resident Evil game hasn't done yet?
- Thread starter RedSwirl
- Start date
The Park was already set in a theme park, wasn't that a Secret World spin off or something?
But yeah, snow would be awesome. Could use footprints to your advantage, there'd be plenty of opportunity to have frozen zombies come to life as such for some jump scares, the cold could add some more survival to the game.

They did that in RE6.
I think they could do a whole game out in the woods. Maybe with some light open-world elements. Have they done a shopping mall? I can't think of one.
Yeah - having worked a night shift job in an office, dark empty offices are fucking creepy.
A proper hotel with The Shining in mind.
While i know the Spencer mansion had some influences with it, we need more stuff like this.
Besides that, doing more sea related stuff would be amazing, a big submarine perhaps or even an underwater base.
Or fuck it, just do a Japanese setting already, and bring Junji Ito along, please.

He doesn't dare to consummate a relationship because he fears... the evil within.
Eh, I know a university has already been done but give a college the feel RE2make had and it would be a great RE game.
A movie studio? Adds a lot of opportunity for scenery changes and cheesy gotchas. Also auter directors and arrogant stars provide pretext for obnoxious, nonsensical puzzles.
"Ugh... We need water, but all the bottled water was taken and locked away by Taylor Swift. And. Part of her rider included a giant safe that can only be unlocked with these three gems hidden throughout Lot B. She's literally the worst."

You could go the route of the novel "The Troop". Main character is a Boy Scouts leader, and he's taking his troop out to an island for nature discovery and things go bad.
But I do love the idea of an amusement park. Also a cruise ship could be cool.

A RE knockoff, Deep Fear, did that and well...it could be done better.
A National Park.
A Mall.
A Neighborhood.
A City Block.
A Business Park.
A Zoo.
A Forest.
A Ski Resort/Village.
An Apartment Complex with nearby Shopping.
A Hotel.
A Hospital.
I would like an RE focuses on one or two of these areas at most. But make them deep. Lots of interactivity.
Some of these have showed up briefly, but I mean a whole game about one of these areas. Like, they function as an entire facility.

A very small tropical island, with a Mr X style antagonist keeping you in constant peril.
Also, a mall, because there should be a real continuation of the incredible Dead Rising ffs.

I think it would be more interesting if they went even further into the past, like before the advent of automatic firearms.
Yeah that sounds like Raccoon City but with all the time that's passed in the series since the first few games.
Well they nuked Raccoon City at the end of RE 3, so I assume its just a big crater these days.
An airport would be my choice. Although it was touched upon in the first Resident Evil CG movie with Leon and Claire.
An abandoned mine or sewer system.
I don't think any horror game has done this yet. Would be so refreshing.

That could be great.
A small town in the midwest that is in the middle of nowhere and cut off from everything else, and don't do it as an action game like RE4-6.
Reading some of the other replies I think a University and a hotel are also really good options.
A University that is far enough outside of a town to make it isolated. You'd have a full campus to explore, from dorms all the way to some weird shit as is expected from RE.
Similar things go for a hotel, have it be secluded and far away from help and have a nice variety of rooms as well as some outside areas.

An abandoned private school in the English countryside from the 40's where eugenic studies were done in secret.
A big sprawling mountain hotel in winter, like the Shining, and a small village near it. Also a ski lift station and maybe a power plant.
A science station in Arctic or Greenland village near it.
Maybe you could even find an old frozen-in expedition ship form the 1800 with ties to the spencers.
A remote village in a fjord in Norway with a laboratory underwater or in the mountainside.

I would go fucking nuts for Resident Evil to basically pull a Boys From Brazil or Dead Mountaineer's Hotel.

If I recall it was just a conventional missile. The wiki says it was thermobaric.
I love the cruise ship on rev 1, would love bigger budget mainline resi game with a similar setting.
That's what I came to post here. It's kind of surprising they haven't went there, considering their influences and Dawn of the Dead. Silent Hill 3 used that location pretty well.
Jungle. Make it so that you have to constantly go through dense foliage. Night and day cycles - nights are extremely difficult and you are basically fucked if you don't find a tree to spend some time and rest/replenish health.
