Resident Evil: Revelations Now Available For Nintendo 3DS

Capcom announced today that Resident Evil: Revelations is currently available for the Nintendo 3DS at local and online retailers. You can pick up your copy and start enjoying some classic, claustrophobic, survival-horror gameplay right now.

The all-new game takes place between Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5. Players will be in control of four different characters trying to escape a cruise ship, and venture through an island floating on the sea. The game uses TV drama-style cut-backs to give players a sense of mystery and intrigue.

Capcom also listened to gamers and decided to bring the series back to its roots with more horror-themed elements. This means tight corridors, lots of pop-out moments, limited ammo and plenty of poorly lit rooms.

What's more is that new features have been added into the game, including the new Genesis Scanner, which enables players to scan bodies and objects for additional items, parts and bonuses. This is also how players will be able to acquire new upgrade parts for their weapons, which can be modified using the on-the-go workbench.

In addition to the main game, Capcom also included a little something-something for those who enjoyed the multiplayer so much in Resident Evil 5, it's called Raid Mode. In this mode players can either battle it out in timed events solo or with a friend with online or local co-op.

You can pick up a copy of Resident Evil: Revelations right now for $39.99, exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS. For further information on the game feel free to visit the Official Website.
