A couple months ago, Capcom confirmed that Resident Evil Revelations, would cost $49.99, which is $10 more than a typical release for the system. The company’s justification at the time was the game needed a 4GB cart instead of the standard 2GB that most 3DS games use. Today the company has revealed that Resident Evil Revelations will only cost $39.99 when it arrives in stores on February 7th.
In its announcement of the new price, Capcom explained it has been searching and negotiating for a way to bring Revelations’ pricing more in line with other 3DS games. Thanks goodness for us, those negotiations paid off!

It appears that Capcom has incorrectly spelled “Revelations” on the Resident Evil: Revelations boxart. Bitmob’s Dan Hsu received the game today and quickly noticed the mistake. However, Capcom is no stranger to boxart screwups. The company made a huge mistake some years ago in the Okami (Wii) boxart. On it, you could clearly see the IGN logo as a watermark.
Let’s hope that Capcom will fix the mistake before the game is released this February 7th in North America. Don’t forget to leave a comment with your thoughts.
