Resident Evil 5 Alternative Edition to add another episode and more costumes
If you thought that the Alternative Edition DLC for Resident Evil 5 was simply going to be a single scenario and motion control support, think again. Famitsu got the goods once again with a two-page spread on the upcoming add-on, revealing more content than previously revealed.

We already know about the “Lost in Nightmares” scenario, where you get to play as Chris and Jill in Spencer’s mansion. What this week’s Famitsu tells us is that there will be another playable scenario, but its name and content is still TBA.
For those who love playing Mercenaries, good news. Capcom is working on “The Mercenaries Reunion” which is basically the same game mode with the same rules, but with more characters, presumably corporate Sheva and biker-thug Chris over there for the consoles. Now you have at least two more characters to score SS on all the Mercenaries maps, although there’s no word if Reunion will also come with more maps or new weapons.

The PS3 version, however, will be getting a Blu-ray disc which contains all the above content, plus the full game of Resident Evil 5, for Â¥ 4,990, or about US$ 55. This one’s scheduled for March.
