The
Resident Evil 5 demo is coming to the US --
this time officially -- and is "premiering exclusively" the week of January 26th on Xbox 360, so sayeth the
Major. The demo features two levels that can be played either solo (with AI support) or with a buddy via split-screen or Xbox Live -- yeah, it's the same as the Japanese demo, unsurprisingly. No word on the release of a PlayStation 3 demo, but we've poked our Capcom contact and will let you know what we find out. In Japan, the PS3 demo is only available
on a bonus disc.
Update: A Capcom press release clarifies that the Xbox Live demo will be released on Monday, January 26th and,
for Gold subscribers, will be "available exclusively on Xbox 360 for one week" -- at which point the PSN version will be released (during the week of February 5th). In addition, the
Resident Evil 5 TGS trailer will be available for download on Xbox Live beginning this Friday, January 16th. [Via
