Concept teaser for Resident Evil Revelations 2 revealed

With an Resident Evil 1 HD remake announced as well, Capcom is now unveiling an intriguing teaser trailer for a sequel to Resident Evil Revelations.

As the young girl runs in the black and white trailer, the wrist-bands highlight who is friendly and who has fallen in the zombie-ridden world. It quickly turns from a world surrounded by the healthy living to a chaotic scene of zombie attacks with the living scrambling to stay alive. A very fitting setting for what Capcom always tries to convey in their Resident Evil games.

After being originally developed for the Nintendo 3DS, Revelations quickly gained popularity as it later was ported to the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and WiiU. Now, with home-consoles in mind from the start, the visual aspects of the game will almost certainly receive a massive upgrade.

Originally leaked on Xbox.com almost two weeks ago where a single screenshot and the game’s boxart were revealed early, the surprise of the announcement is non-existant, but the excitement still remains high.

Revelations 2 will be available next year on Playstation 4, Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC. Surprisingly the title will not be coming to the WiiU considering the original Revelations was on the Nintendo console.

Resident Evil Revelations 2 leaked on Xbox.com

Capcom hasn’t officially announced anything — nor has Microsoft — but a listing on Xbox.com revealed that Resident Evil Revelations 2 is at least in the works for Capcom.

Capcom looks like it will be releasing its first new generation Resident Evil game soon.
Nothing is official right now, but french gaming site “Gamer in a box” was first to report on the leaked screenshot and Boxart.

Resident Evil Revelations began on the Nintendo 3DS, and after gaining popularity on the mobile-gaming platform, it moved to the likes of the Xbox 360, WiiU and Playstation 3. Now, two years after the initial release, we see a glimpse of a sequel coming to at least the Xbox 360 with the game’s box art and a single screenshot being leaked on Xbox.com.

Biohazard is the title the Japanese know the Resident Evil series by.

The single screenshot certainly gives off the typical Resident Evil vibes with the dark and bleak setting which should be enough to get fans of the franchise excited. While it isn’t known exactly which consoles it will be coming to (other than the Xbox 360), it’s not too far-reached to say that it will be coming to the new-generation platforms.

Now, given the game is being developed with home-consoles in mind from the start, the quality of the game is sure to take a huge jump over its predecessor with a much greater amount of development resources waiting to be taken advantage of this time around.

No details were able to be grabbed regarding a release date or any of the game’s features/details, but Capcom will certainly formally address the new Resident Evil soon.

The leak comes only a few weeks after Capcom’s official announcement of a remake for the original Resident Evil.
