The Darkside Chronicles will be an on-rails shooter. The player's partner will be seen on screen during gameplay, unless a [[co-op]] game is being played. There will be a new evade attack to set The Darkside Chronicles apart from other on-rails shooters. There were also changes to make the game more appealing to casual gamers. For example, head shots will be made easier for the player to pull off and a status screen has been implemented to intuitively change weapons with {{wii|Neutral|Dpad}}. The game will adjust its difficulty itself, depending on the players' skill level. Other new features include online leaderboards and a system to tell the players' reticules apart from each other in a co-op session.
The game's plot revolves around the personal stories and tragedies in the series. Its main focus is set on retelling the events of [[Resident Evil 2]] and [[Resident Evil: Code: Veronica]], with a new chapter being featured. For the Resident Evil 2 segment, the player takes control of protagonists Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield, with Ada Wong and Sherry Birkin acting as supporting characters. The Code: Veronica chapter again features Claire, accompanied by fellow Rockfort Island prisoner Steve Burnside. Albert Wesker makes an appearance in a flashback. Chris Redfield also makes an appearance.
The games revisited in this game is Resident Evil 2 starring Leon and Claire and Resident Evil Veronica X starring Claire and Chris.
