As the holidays are coming to a close, Capcom has seen fit to remind everyone that things are going to get insanely exciting as we head into the new year. Why? Because of the 3DS and it’s insane graphics!
Capcom has released some all-new images, screenshots and artwork from both Resident Evil: Revelations and Resident Evil: Mercenaries, and they seek to remind you that the 3DS is one heck of a powerful machine. If you didn’t’ know better you’d think you were looking at new Xbox 360 games.
Resident Evil Mercenaries 3D Edition will include re-mastered levels taken from Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5 with the same great shooting gameplay that the side-games are known for, in both co-op and single-player; Only this time you can shoot zombies in stereoscopic 3D!
The gameplay is a race against time as you seek to kill as many enemies as possible within the time limit, while collecting items that can increase your encounter. Scoring kills back to back to each other will chain combos and thus increase your score.
New to the 3DS version is Claire Redfield, who makes her Mercenaries debut. You’ll also be able to play as Krauser, Hunk and Chris Redfield, among other as-of-yet unknown characters. Additions to the gameplay include the ability to run and shoot at the same time(!) and touch-screen functionality.
Built from the ground up for the Nintendo 3DS, Resident Evil Revelations sees Jill Valentine and Chris investigating a deadly threat on board a stranded cruise liner. The pair will need to fight for survival as they explore the dark and claustrophobic environments both at sea and as the action moves to dry land in an all-new entry in the Resident Evil series.
Here is a gallery full of new screenshot and artwork.
