Capcom Selling ‘Resident Evil’-themed Perfumes in Japan

Published

on

You can now add perfume to the list of things you can get with Resident Evil slapped on the package. Capcom has released a line of new fragrances inspired by their iconic series, though they’re only available in Japan.

As part of the series’ 25th anniversary celebrations, the three perfumes were released this past Friday, and are “inspired” by a different Resident Evil character: Leon, Chris and Jill. Chris’ scent features “the passion of cloves and black pepper”, while Jill has a “fruity floral ozone scent” that expresses her “cuteness”. And Leon? His scent is “centered on citrus that is reminiscent of Leon’s calmness and sense of justice”.

Blame Google Translate for these descriptions.

Unfortunately, as mentioned these perfumes are only available at Japanese retail stores, and digital orders are restricted to Japan. Each bottle retails for ¥6380, which is around $60 USD.

And, if for whatever reason Resident Evil isn’t your thing, Capcom also has Devil May Cry 5-themed perfumes available with Dante, Nero and V.

Resident Evil Village is out now, with DLC expected in the future.

Thanks to Gamesradar for the heads up.

Battle Ancient Monstrosities in the Antarctic in ‘UNFROST’ [Trailer]

Published

on

For those wanting more wintery horror games, Nord Unit has you covered with their upcoming co-op Antarctic horror FPS, UNFROST. Coming to Steam, the game has you braving the elements in Antarctica as you hunt for tough-as-nails ancient otherworldly beings that require some heavy firepower to take down.

UNFROST is set in Antarctica, where you and your squad seek out ancient entities known as the Riftborne. It’s easier said than done, as you’ll need to gather evidence, survive extreme conditions, and prepare to launch a nuclear strike, which is the only weapon capable of killing them. Of course, you’ll also need to figure out how to escape before the strike hits.

But, in order to launch the strike, you’ll need to figure out just the right tunings in order to actually damange the Riftborne, which cannot be defeated with conventional weapons. That involves exploring abandoned stations, frozen ruins, and anomaly zones to recover samples, scan anomalies, and analyze evidence.

You’ll need to work together with your squad by divvying up tasks, sharing evidence, and transporting equipment. For example, one squad member may investigate anomalies, while another secures the perimeter or hauls critical equipment through a blizzard.

And yes, as you might have guessed, the Antarctic weather will be your first and foremost foe in UNFROST. You must brave the freezing temperatures and inclement weather while managing warmth, supplies, and sanity. The longer your mission lasts, the tougher it will be to survive.

Obviously, the Riftborne isn’t going to wait around for you. In fact, it’ll be hunting you from the very start. As such, you’ll need to constantly adapt in order to avoid certain death. Once you’ve determined the Riftborne’s weakness, you must configure the correct nuclear payload, launch the strike, and get out before impact. You don’t want to be around when the bombs drop.
