Epidemic
SCES-00393
Initially Released 14 June 1996
Epidemic, known in Japan as Kileak: The Blood 2: Reason in Madness, is a first-person shooter developed by Genki and published by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe. A sequel to Kileak: The DNA Imperative, the game is set in a post-apocalyptic underground city called Neural City, where player character Masao Coda fights against the Byflos Group using a Protect Armor suit.
Only one PAL variant is currently catalogued, and it is a UK-exclusive release. The game is presented in the Mini Jewel Black Bordered PAL case format with a Hologram A on the case, making it one of the relatively few early PAL releases to use this hologram type. It contains a single English-language disc. The earliest PAL release date is 14 June 1996.
No loose paperwork or bundled demo discs have been documented. As a Sony first-party title with a UK-only PAL release and an early hologram variant, Epidemic is a worthwhile find for collectors interested in the first wave of PAL PlayStation software.
