So, that mysterious new achievement for Resident Evil 2 that relates to Jill Valentine? Turns out that there’s more to it on the Xbox One achievements side.
The folks at RelyOnHorror did a bit of investigating, and found out that the image used for the achievement (which unlike Steam or PS4 achievements, are full images and not cropped squares) has Jill talking to RE2‘s Robert Kendo. This isn’t just some image that Capcom cobbled together, either. Robert appears to have more wounds on his face than what he initially has in the game, for one.
This all seems to point to Capcom cooking up a new DLC for the game, even after they had claimed that the DLC was finished. It also seems to be Capcom’s way to getting more players hyped for Resident Evil 3: Nemesis next year. Want further proof? A new demo has appeared on the Microsoft Store.
You can find a rebranded demo for Resident Evil 2 call the R.P.D. demo. From all appearances, it’s the same “One-Shot” demo that was released for the game last year. Only this time, it has the time limit removed.
Does this all mean that we’re in for a RE2 surprise tonight at The Game Awards? Remember, Geoff Keighly only said that no RE3 was going to be at the show. We’ll see tonight.
