"Alyssa..."
— Kurt's last words before dying.

Kurt was a reporter and citizen of Raccoon City. He was friends with Alyssa Ashcroft.

Background and death

At some point in 1993, when patients started dying frequently in the abandoned hospital outside the city, Kurt was determined to go after the truth. Frustrated by Umbrella's cover up, and the inability of the police to do anything, Kurt took matters into his own hands and broke into the hospital.[2] He was injured by the Axe Man at some point and subsequently eaten alive by the t-Virus-infected Dorothy Lester.

Legacy

Five years later, in late-September 1998, Alyssa and at least two other survivors ventured into the hospital while fleeing from the viral outbreak in Raccoon City. Alyssa discovered evidence of the illegal experiments conducted there and vowed to escape the city alive and spread the truth about what happened, promising to Kurt that his death would not be in vain.[3][4]

Gameplay

Kurt can be unlocked as a playable character in Resident Evil Outbreak File #2 by completing the scenario flashback as Alyssa. Kurt has two playable versions, and both are in the same set. He can be purchased in the Collection menu for 3000 points.

The first version is simply named "Kurt". This version is a George-type and starts in FINE status with an average vitality between 2000 and 2500, and has an Iron Pipe as his starting item. He also has an average infection rate of 1.61% per minute, a movement speed of 0.81, and a damage multiplier of 1.00.[5]

The other version is called "Kurt.B". The most notable change is the bloody wound in his stomach. Due to this, Kurt.B starts in DANGER status and has a Hemostat as his starting item, and is instead a Jim-type character. He has a very fast infection rate of 2.21% per minute, a movement speed of 0.79, and a damage multiplier of 0.97.[5] Since he's a Jim-type, he can actually potentially output more damage than Kurt, because of the Coin that all Jim-types start out with.
