Capcom also revealed that Wii ports of the more traditional Resident Evil and Resident Evil Zero entries are coming to North America under the Resident Evil "Classics" line. Both releases are based on the GameCube versions, with added motion controls.
Both of the survival horror ports are slated to arrive later this year, at $29.99 a piece.
A light-gun shooter similar to Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles (Wii), Darkside Chronicles will again revisit past Resident Evil games in on-rails shooter form. As with Umbrella Chronciles, development will be shared between Capcom and Cavia.
This time around, players will experience the zombie-laden events of Resident Evil 2 and other as-yet-unknown entries. Past teases suggest that the events of Resident Evil: Code Veronica will be featured in the game, which does not yet have a release date.
It's not called Umbrella Chronicles 2 because Umbrella is no longer the main enemy, according to an IGN translation of the report. Furthermore, the game is said to be more accessible than Umbrella Chronicles, and will focus more on replayability.
Expect more details on the title when it's officially announced by Capcom tomorrow.
