Game Informer has reviewed both Resident Evil: Revelations and Shinobi for the 3DS in their latest issue. The former received a score of 9/10 while the latter scored a 6.5/10. Have these scores affected your purchasing decisions at all?
Capcom has revealed that Resident Evil: Revelations will support StreetPass. In the single-player ‘Campaign Mode’ you use StreetPass to obtain items from other people, while in the co-op ‘RAID Mode’, StreetPass allows you to gain new enemies and missions. You can check after the break for the game’s opening movie and some screenshots.
It’s been confirmed that Resident Evil: Revelations has an extra, unlockable difficulty mode. The mode, known as “Hell Mode” can only be unlocked by beating the game once. There is no information at the moment of what exactly changes in this mode, but it does seem like the game will pack some replay value.
Resident Evil: Revelations is only a few weeks away from launching, but in the meantime you can check after the break for new screenshots from the game.
Capcom is going to release the original soundtrack of Resident Evil: Revelations next month in Japan. The album will come with two discs, the first disc will have 66 tracks from Resident Evil: Revelations and 31 tracks from Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D on the second disc. The price for the album is 3990 yen ($52 US Dollars).
There is a demo for Resident Evil: Revelations for the eShop in Japan at the moment, and it’s awesome. Luckily, it is coming to Europe and North America. But, when exactly? Well, not even Capcom is sure:
A RE: Revelations demo for NA and Europe is coming. In the case of NA, we’re awaiting our date confirmation and code approval from NOA (we have a tentative from them, but I’ll have to keep you in suspense). When we have something more concrete to share, you won’t be able to miss it on the Capcom-Unity blog.
The demo is most enjoyable and you can click here to watch a full walkthrough of it if you want.
