‘Resident Evil: Revelations 2’ Goes Episodic, New Screenshots Emerge
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).
We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
