Resident Evil Revelations 2 Launches Starting on February 17, Barry Burton Is Playable

The development team at Capcom in
charge of the upcoming Resident Evil
Revelations 2 is clearly determined to
make the experience appealing to long-
term fans of the franchise and the
studio announces that player favorite
Barry Burton will be back and will have
a brand new storyline designed to
introduce some interesting challenges.
The company is showing off some of the moves the
character uses in a new trailer and explains that he is
headed to a prison island set in a remote location in
order to try and find his daughter Moira.
The studio states, “Barry meets brand new character
Natalia Korda, a little girl who has a strange power
that allows her to sense enemies and hidden items.
Using this skill alongside Barry’s proven combat
abilities, players will need to alternate between the
two to survive the mysterious island and find Moira.”
Capcom has also said that Resident Evil Revelations 2
is set to be delivered in four episodes and has offered
clear dates for all of them.
The first chunk of content will be offered on February
17 on the PlayStation Store in North America, with the
rest of the installments coming at one week intervals.
In European territories, owners of a PlayStation 4 or
PS3 will get it one day later, and at the same time
gamers can also pick up Resident Evil Revelations 2 in
the official Xbox store and on Steam for the PC.
For each new episode of the title, Capcom will include
two playable scenarios, one focused on Claire and
Moira and another which features Barry and Natalia.
Two brand new enemies that will be featured are the
Rotten and the Revenant, both of them designed to
terrify gamers and to force them to adapt their
strategies.
Gamers who want to experience everything the new
title from Capcom has to offer will be able to get a
Complete Season pass.
They will have access to two more episodes for each
pair of characters and they will also be able to
experience Hunk as a character in the Raid mode.
Resident Evil Revelations 2 will also get a full retail
release on March 10, which will contain all the four
core episodes, the spin-off content, the Hunk
characters, and it will also add Albert Wesker for the
Raid mode, more costumes to use and a new
Throwback stage pack which includes maps from
previous games in the series.
