Capcom confirmed today that Resident Evil: Revelations 2 will continue the episodic format used by its predecessor, with one big change. When the game releases in early 2015, it will take a page out of Telltale’s book and arrive as four individual episodes. Unlike The Walking Dead: The Game, which spaces its episodes months apart, Capcom plans to release a new episode every week.
They also promise to pack them with all sorts of cliffhangers to motivate us to check out the following episode.
The episodes will be available on the digital marketplace. If you’d prefer to get them all at once, Capcom will also release the entire season after the fourth and final episode arrives. They also plan to release a retail compilation that will come with “additional game content” they’ll reveal in the coming months.
Each Resident Evil: Revelations 2 episode will be priced at €5.99/$5.99 per episode. The Complete Season will be made available for €24.99/$24.99 as a digital download and a retail boxed version will follow (price TBD).
