Capcom has been doing quite well with its Resident Evil remakes/remasters lately, with the original selling over a million copies and Resident Evil 0 doing well enough. While work on the second title is still underway, Capcom took to YouTube to announce that remakes of Resident Evil 4, 5, and 6 will be coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
Hey, you, person skulking in the shadows even though it's the middle of the day. Wanna buy some stuff? Some evil stuff? Some resident evil stuff? Capcom certainly wants you to, assuming you live in North America and own a PlayStation 3.
Gamers who might have taken an extended break from good old Capcom titles will soon have a nice opportunity to play “catch up” with them. A sweet, new Capcom games bundle has been announced to arrive this October, titled as “Capcom Essentials”.
Capcom has been on a roll with great PC ports for their console games. Resident Evil 6 is no exception to that rule. Like Devil May Cry before it, Resident Evil 6 for the PC is the definitive version of the game. That is, until an “Ultimate Edition” of the game is announced (this is Capcom, after all). Reside...
There is an added bonus for those who decide to buy Resident Evil 6 for PC. One of the modes in Resident Evil 6, Mercenaries Mode, is receiving a little star treatment from Left 4 Dead. In a special mode within Resident Evil 6 on PC, you can play as the cast of Left 4 Dead as playable characters. The characters you will be able to use are Coach, Nick, Ellis, and Rochelle. In addition to these extra players, zombie hordes will be increased to match the intensity and ferocity of those you would normally find in Left 4 Dead. Finally, some new undead faces will appear in the special crossup, notably the Witch and the Mini-Tank of Left 4 Dead fame.
We’ve seen plenty of games do crossovers with Capcom over the years, but nothing quite like this! Both Capcom and Valve have proudly announced that both Resident Evil 6 and Left 4 Dead 2 will be holding a crossover in each other’s games, switching things up for fans of these two major zombie franchises.
Resident Evil fans, rejoice! Resident Evil 6 released for Xbox 360 and PS3 back on the 2'nd of October last year. While some complained about the changes to the formula, others thought it was a great survival horror/action title. It was certainly a fun romp for co-op play. In case you haven't read our review, you can do so here.
The Xbox Live Ultimate Game Sale continues today with 50%-75% discounts on several Resident Evil games. Half of them feature co-op, oh, happy day! Last year's release of Resident Evil 6 (2-player local or online co-op) is discounted down to $20, as well as Resident Evil 5 (2-player local or online co-op) down to $10 and Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City (4-player online co-op) down to $20.
It has been a small wait for PlayStation 3 owners, but now they can finally grab the latest Resident Evil 6 DLC modes available on other platforms. Capcom will also be putting Mercenaries maps onto online stores next month for all consoles.
Put your average PC gamer up against your average console gamer and what have you got? Not two pasty looking blokes in their 20s, but different gaming audiences, with differing tastes. Capcom certainly believe this to be true and they consider the PC gamer to be a little hardier. The PC version of Resident Evil 6 will have an exclusive super tough version of Mercenaries Mode called 'No Mercy'.
Though a long time coming, PC gamers will finally get the chance to download their own version of Resident Evil 6 early into next year. At the same time, Capcom is continuing to add more content to the current console version in the next few weeks.
Three Resident Evil 6 maps for the “Mercenaries” game mode have now hit the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Marketplace for purchase. Originally, these maps were only included along with those who pre-ordered the game through exclusive retailers. Now, we can all enjoy these maps with everyone else and get the full experience of this game mode with our co-op partners.
