Capcom has revealed new details on Resident Evil: Revelations 2, confirming the upcoming survival horror title will be released in episodic form.
The company confirmed that Revelations 2 will be comprised of four episodes in total, with new chapters rolling out each week.
However, gamers will be able to pick up the complete package on disc once all four episodes have been released.
With each episode, Capcom promises “hours of terrifying gameplay ending with dramatic cliff-hangers.”
In terms of prices, gamers can expect to fork out €5.99/$5.99 per episode, while the full game will retail for €24.99/$24.99.
"The beginning of the Resident Evil Revelations 2 tale sees fan favourite Claire Redfield make a dramatic return to the horrors that haunted her in the past," says Capcom. "Survivor of the Raccoon City incident depicted in previous Resident Evil games, Claire now works for the anti-bioterrorism organisation Terra Save.
"Moira Burton, new recruit and daughter of Resident Evil legend Barry Burton, is attending her welcome party for Terra Save when unknown armed forces storm the office. Claire and Moira are knocked unconscious and awaken later to find themselves in a dark and abandoned detention facility. Working together, they must find out who took them and to what sinister end.
"With the terrifying Afflicted enemies waiting around every dark corner, players will need to use their ammo and weapon supply wisely, in classic survival horror style. Will Claire and Moira make it out alive and discover what’s led to them being taken to this remote island? Who else will they come across? A story of twists and turns will have players guessing the next step at every turn."
Resident Evil: Revelations 2 in early 2015 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PC, Xbox One, and Xbox 360.
