RE5 to Add Versus Mode

[wraggster]

Capcom will add a Versus mode to Resident Evil 5a few weeks after the game becomes available according to a release put out this morning by the publisher. Versus mode will pit players against each other in a survival contest, allowing up to four players to play in two different game types. The first, called Slayer's Rule, is a point-based game where each player tries to kill Majinis. The other, called Survivor's Rule, is closer to a typical deathmatch type of game where players fight each other. Each game type can be played one-on-one or two-on-two with Chris, Sheva, and other character models up for grabs.

Update: Capcom has confirmed the proper pricing of the download. It will cost 400 Microsoft points (US $5.00) on Xbox Live and US $4.99 on PlayStation Network.

In Japan, the mode release on March 26 for 160 Microsoft points on Xbox Live or 250 yen on PS3.
