‘Resident Evil Revelations 2’ Episode 1 is Free On PSN, XBL

Published

If you still haven’t gotten around to indulging yourself with a trip to the perpetually grimy world of Resident Evil Revelations 2, now is the time to atone for your sins.

The first chapter in the episodic spin-off is available free-of-charge on the PlayStation Store — for PS3 and PS4 users — as well as on Xbox Live. This way you can get a taste of what it has to offer without the risk of feeling $5 worth of buyer’s remorse.

In related news, the Resident Evil Revelations 2 Deluxe Edition arrived earlier this week for the Xbox One. With a $29.99 price tag, it’s really more for the most elite of us. To qualify, you must’ve been using an EpiPen in the place of a “traditional” alarm clock for at least 5 years, and your K/D ratio must not have ever fallen below 1.5. Not ever.

Capcom did a bang up job with Revelations 2, even if it does make the same mistake The Evil Within did by relying too much on a stereotypical understanding of what’s scary.

Scary visuals only go so far, and I think we’ve seen enough humanoid monsters with faces that resemble dirty pork chops wrapped in barbed wire to not be that intimidated by it. Aside from that, this game is definitely worth your time if you’re a fan of the series, the horror genre, or if you’re just fond of shooting ugly guys in the dick.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
