Resident Evil, known as Biohazard (バイオハザード) in Japan, is the first in a long line of survival horror games developed and published by Capcom. It was ported to the Sega Saturn by Nextech in 1997, with some members of Sega's team. Nextech would later return to develop Resident Evil CODE:Veronica for Capcom, and consequently were involved in the production of each of its spinoff games and ports.

The Saturn version includes an extra "battle mode" option, not present in other ports of the game, which has the player attempt to survive through rooms of monsters with both limited ammo and limited time. The Sega Saturn Port also includes a few extra enemy encounters such as a Second T-002 Tyrant that breaks out directly after the one Wesker releases. It also features a model edit of the Hunter known as the "Tick". Battle Mode has a special "Gold Tyrant" used for the boss.
