Resident Evil: Revelations Doesn’t Have Higher Price Tag

Capcom has confirmed that its recently released Resident Evil: Revelations title doesn’t have a higher than usual price tag, as was previously mentioned, meaning it now costs the same as regular games for the 3DS ($39.99/€39.99).

Resident Evil: Revelations is such a massive game that Capcom confirmed it would charge extra than the regular price tag of a full-fledged Nintendo 3DS game. This, as you can imagine, didn’t exactly go so well with fans of the survival horror series, who failed to see the reasoning behind it.

Now, the Japanese company has confirmed that, “after weeks of effort,” it was able to reduce the price of the new Resident Evil game.

"Since the announcement of the $49.99 price point, we've spent weeks looking for a way to bring your cost down to standard 3DS pricing. Today we can finally confirm we were successful in this, and hope the reduced price encourages even more people to check out this strong entry in the Resident Evil canon," the company revealed.

This means that Revelations now costs $39.99/€39.99. The game is already available in Europe and will arrive on February 7 in North America.
