Starting with the original last year and 0 in January of this year (bundled with the first game) - either side of a new, episodic-format title in Revelations 2, it has to be noted - Capcom have switched their focus onto the latter half of the main, numbered series while Resident Evil 2‘s inevitable remake remains in development. It would explain why we find ourselves amid another round of re-releases of the company’s lucratively popular Resident Evil franchise.
Call me crazy, but I have a slight suspicion Capcom are in a more insistent - if not insidious - mood to raise some easy finance, for whatever reason, as quickly as possible.
