Resident Evil: Revelations 2 PlayStation Preorders Get Bonus Mode

Players who preorder Resident Evil: Revelations 2 for the PlayStation 3 or PlayStation 4 will get a free bonus mode, Capcom has announced.

According to Polygon, the game's producer Michiteru Okabe revealed the news during a panel at the New York City Comic-Con. Preordering the game on PlayStation consoles will get you the Raid Mode Throwback, a variation of the Raid Mode introduced in the first game, which asks one or two players to fight their way through maps from the single player campaign populated with different enemies. Raid Mode Throwback will work the same, only with stages from previous Resident Evil games.

The game should be available to preorder on PS4 on October 14, and PS3 preorders should be available later this month.

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 will release in four episodes. You'll be able to buy each for $6, or purchase all of them for $25. The $25 bundle includes the four chapters and some "additional game content," which will be announced later. Once the four episodes are released, Capcom will launch a disc-based version of Revelations 2, featuring the four chapters and additional content, for $40.

The game is coming to Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4, and PC. As was previously rumored, it follows Claire Redfield and Barry Burton's daughter, Moira Burton.
