Resident Evil Outbreak: File #2[a] is a survival horror video game developed and published by Capcom with online playability for the PlayStation 2. It is the sequel to Resident Evil Outbreak, and the final installment of the spin-off series. It was released on September 9, 2004 in Japan, on April 26, 2005 in North America, and August 26, 2005 in PAL regions.

After the success of Outbreak in Japan, Capcom announced a sequel in Fall 2004. The game takes place in zombie-infested Raccoon City with the same eight characters that were featured in its predecessor, along with five new scenarios.

Upon release, File #2 featured online multiplayer servers, but in March 2007 all servers were shut down. On January 1, 2014, alternate fan servers restored online play, along with new additions to the servers, such as ban lists and leaderboards.[1]
