(Operation Raccoon City's backstory)


"In Umbrella's Raccoon City facility, betrayer collects the last of his life's work. His name is William Birkin and he plans to sell the G-Virus to the American Government. Umbrella Security Service has been sent in to neutrolize the threat."
— In-game description

Containment, known as Blockade (封鎖 Fūsa?) in Japan, is the opening mission to Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City.

Plot

Delta team assist HUNK in the retrieval of the G-Virus sample from William Birkin. They find that he has paid off a number of UBCS mercenaries to defend his lab while he sells the virus to the US military. Making their way through the facility, the intruder alarm is activated - being Umbrella personnel, the USS has authorized access. HUNK, therefore, concludes that the alert is unrelated to their entry. Eventually WOLFPACK links up with other members of Alpha Team outside of Birkin's lab; HUNK and another member of Alpha Team then enter the lab. After they retrieve the G-virus samples, a team of US Army Spec Ops arrive. The USS agents dispatch the enemies and escape the facility via the main lift, where GOBLIN 6 prepares to meet up with HUNK up top. Before HUNK and Delta team can meet up with them however the rest of Alpha team is attacked by G-Birkin. Birkin chases HUNK and Delta team out of the lab and HUNK forces Delta to leave him so he can go back for the G-virus sample which he dropped.
