‘Resident Evil: Code Veronica X’, ‘Butcher’ Hit PS4 This Week!
While diehard Resident Evil 2 fans wait (and wait) for any news regarding Capcom’s remaster of the classic sequel, according to Gematsu, fans of the series will have another game to chew on while we wait.
Announced on Gematsu’s Twitter a few days back, Resident Evil: Code Veronica X will be released for the Playstation 4 this week. According to an earlier post on Gematsu, this version of Veronica X will likely be the same version that was released for the Playstation 3 back in 2011, upscaled and with added trophy support. This is also in addition to Resident Evil: Revelations, which is set to be available for download this fall.
Also joining Veronica X will be Transhuman Design’s Butcher, which had previously been released this past October on Steam and GOG.com. The game is a tough one, but satisfying if you enjoy seeing copious amounts of pixellated blood everywhere (and are a bit of a sadist).
Epic’s Fortnite is heading for another crossover, this time with Universal Orlando and Halloween Horror Nights. The title’s annual Fortnitemares Halloween event will be coming to Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort in a new scare zone, kicking off on August 28.
For those not in the know, Scare zones are themed, open-air areas where guests and actors roam around freely.
This is the first time Fortnite will be featured during the after-hours event, which will run from August 28 until November 1. Tickets and packages are on sale now at the official site.
Per the press release, guests will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground that’s been “overcome with a threatening force.” From there, fans will meet up with the Battle Bus, featuring familiar Fortnitemares characters, including “a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights.”
And of course, there will be Fortnitemares merchandise available for fans, including a graphic t-shirt, decal set, and an acrylic collectible piece.
Fortnitemares won’t be the only featured property at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights. Killer Klowns from Outer Space will also be getting its own scare zone. Sinners, Stranger Things, Hellraiser, and Evil Dead Burn will also be part of the event, though they will be relegated to their own specific houses.
And while it’s early yet, gamers can probably expect Fortnitemares to return to Fortnite this October.
