INDIANAPOLIS – Nov. 13, 2002 – Before the
mansion. Before the disaster. Evil is born. As players of Capcom’s Resident
Evil(r) Zero discover something terrible seeping into the pristine mountain air
of Raccoon City, they’ll have no reason to panic with the BradyGames’ Resident
Evil Zero(r) Official Strategy Guide at their side. With all the essential
tactics and content provided in this Signature Series guide, gamers will put
their fears to rest and enjoy this highly anticipated prequel for Nintendo
GameCube(tm).

In Resident Evil Zero, players embark on a
mission to investigate two mysterious sightings near their crashed helicopter –
a burning wreck and a dormant train stopped in the forest. The thrilling
adventure will take them through various teeth-chattering levels and complex
puzzles. Gamers control both Rebecca Chambers and Billy Coen, the main
characters, and can switch from one to the other in the blink of an eye. The
investigation will unfold the history of the Resident Evil series, allowing
players to see where the award-winning survival horror franchise began.

BradyGames’ Resident Evil Zero Official
Strategy Guide features expansive coverage of the game to arm players with the
courage and knowledge to prevail. Gamers will discover the best way to manage
inventory, when to switch characters and how to solve complex puzzles, with the
comprehensive walkthrough. Highly detailed maps depict every area in and
pinpoint all crucial items, while expert boss tactics provide methods to defeat
each ghastly beast. In addition, the guide provides complete item and weapon
rosters, bestiary, character bios, game secrets, and much more!

"BradyGames has done a great job for Capcom
in the past and we expect even better strategy guide products as we expand our
relationship," said Todd Thorson, director of marketing for Capcom. "Our
customers will benefit even more as we work closely with BradyGames to enhance
their products, add more promotions and new printed products for the market."

In addition to comprehensive strategies, this
guide offers unique bonus information for avid Resident Evil fans. Part of
BradyGames’ Signature Series line, the Resident Evil Zero Official Strategy
Guide incorporates quality design with extensive game coverage.

"After working with Capcom on a number of
Resident Evil guides, we are thrilled to be their exclusive publisher for
Resident Evil Zero," said David Waybright, publisher for BradyGames. "The game
takes players back before the beginning of the series, so we’ve packed the guide
with extras like a Resident Evil history and a gallery of concept art. Fans will
get everything they could want."
