Capcom has announced Darkstalkers Resurrection, a digital collection of the franchise heading to consoles next year.
The title was announced during a Street Fighter 25th Anniversary Panel at New York ComicCon. It’ll be developed by Iron Galaxy Studios and include arcade versions of Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge and Darkstalkers 3 bundled as a downloadable offering.
The bundling together of the titles was a must according to Capcom, realizing the series’ fan base was divided between the two games.
"We were agonizing over which to release," producer Derek Neal told Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/10/11/capcom-announces-darkstalkers-resurrection-at-nycc/). "They're the two most popular, fan-favorite games of the people who have played Darkstalkers way back when and loved it. There's a group that loves Darkstalkers 2 and a group that loves Darkstalkers 3."
Neal added that Capcom legend Yoshinori Ono is hoping to see the series come back even further with analtogether new effort (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/10/11/capcom-ono-dreams-of-revitalizing-darkstalkers-wants-darkstal/).
"Ono has a dream of revitalizing the Darkstalkers franchise, and this is the first step to get there. [Ono] wants Darkstalkers 4."
Darkstalkers Resurrection will run $14.99 and is expected out on PSN and XBLA in early 2013.
