UPDATE
Capcom confirmed the date’s delay. Here are the new release dates:
Each episode will set you back GBP 4.99 / EUR5.99 / $5.99 each or players can purchase a complete Season available for GBP 19.99/EUR24.99/$24.99. The physical copy of the game has also been pushed back a week and will be out on 17th March in North America and across Europe on 20th March, 2015
ORIGINAL STORY
According to Capcom, its for more “polishing work and gameplay optimisation“. Can’t be a bad thing, right?
Instead of getting your teeth into the first episodic Resident Evil on February 17th, the first episode will start releasing on the 25th and thus delaying subsequent episodes by a week. Here’s the new release schedule:
- Episode 1: February 25
- Episode 2: March 4
- Episode 3: March 11
- Episode 4: March 18
Note that this is per Capcom Australia PR. NA and Europe release should be around the same time. No word yet if a delay will also hit the physical version.
