Resident Evil 5 offered an incredible co-op experience set in Africa which offered a plethora of different weapon choices, new enemies, and an intense narrative placed 5 years after the events in Resident Evil 4 centering on Chris Redfield. 

Resident Evil 6 saw the return of Leon Kennedy and Chris Redfield in addition to a few new faces to squad up against a new global bioterrorist threat that bounced between North America, Edonia, and Lanshiang, China.
