Resident Evil news & patch notes

http://images.onesite.com/capcom-unity.com/user/brelston/remake/7bd248fee73f86ddc06bbd62bbce3688.jpg Survival horror lives! The critically acclaimed HD update to Resident Evil (released this past January) has now sold over one million units worldwide. This is in part because the dev team made a great product, but also because of the excellent word of mouth and general praise fans shared about the title. We want to thank everyone for rediscovering this modern classic - or thank you for trying it for the first time. Hope you finished it as Chris AND Jill! The RE dev team also created a batch of brand new wallpapers that can be found right here. They range from character-specific tributes to more understated options like the one above. Classy!

We’re pleased to confirm that the recently released Resident Evil has become Capcom’s fastest selling digital title in history across North America and Europe. http://youtu.be/xWYov9Y_NwM Capcom’s Producer on the title, Yoshiaki Hirabyashi, commented “It’s been great to see so many positive comments from fans that have enjoyed this new release. The team here at Capcom Japan have worked hard to bring the game to the latest generation of consoles and we are thrilled at this news on its performance.” As an additional "thank you," you can download a ZIP file of the Spencer Mansion floor plan (about 21MB).

All aboard the hype train for Resident Evil! The enhanced version of the classic 2002 "REmake" officially hits digital outlets starting January 20. Beginning on that day, you'll be able to pick it up for $19.99/€19.99/£15.99 on PS4, PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC. While it's nice to finally know the price and release date, nothing speaks louder than gameplay footage. So to that end, take a peep at this lovely 60fps gameplay footage taken directly from the PC version of the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3a6-6QWyLGY&list=UUS2iGSouOopNHXFBcWtBQiA Note: Make sure to set the YouTube setting to either "1080p/60" or "720p/60." Browsers currently known to support 60fps stream are IE11 (64-bit version) and Chrome. We also have a bevy of new PC screenshots to consider as well - check 'em out! (visit the Resident Evil store page for 1080p versions) (Shout-out to Moira!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1crgIxdlpqs And then on top of all that, we've also put together this fun salute to the 200+ doors of the Spencer Mansion and its surrounding areas. No fancy angle here, just doors upon doors upon doors - strange how something so simple can still take you back. Game's out starting from January 20!

Not long ago we posted a special video in which producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi walked us through the process of updating RE for 2015. In that video, Hirabayashi-san discussed some of the methods he and the dev team used to enhance the game's already impressive visuals - this time, he reveals a room that warranted a special extra touch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZ2UHHfvyyY

Feast your eyes on a barrage of console Resident Evil screenshots, plus a comparison image that pit the 2002 original against the 2015's enhanced update. Up top is a scene from the 2002 version, compared to the next-gen (or current-gen, if ya like) version due early next year. We also have a fair number of additional console screens below: There are even more screens over at Capcom Unity
