Resident Evil 3 and Resident Evil Resistance launch details announced

Capcom has announced the March 19, 2020 launch of the Resident Evil 3 Demo, and the upcoming Resident Evil Resistance open beta, which will start on March 27, 2020. Players who wish to try the demo will be able to do so on the Playstation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam. The Racoon City Demo allows players to take on the role of the iconic hero, Jill Valentine, as she teams up with Carlos Oliveira and the Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service (a.k.a. U.B.C.S.). Jill must evacuate citizens from Raccoon City while also attempting to save herself from the bioweapon Nemesis. 

Upon completion of the demo, players of the Raccoon City demo will be able to view an exclusive cinematic trailer. Players will also be able to test their limits with a challenging Mr. Charlie scavenger hunt. They must find and destroy twenty Mr. Charlie statues across Raccoon City with Nemesis chasing them. The demo will be available starting March 19, 2020, at midnight ET on Xbox One and 1 pm ET on Steam and Playstation 4. 

The open beta for the 4vs1 Resident Evil Resistance will allow a player to take on the role of Daniel Fabron, one of the title’s four masterminds, and run experiments using traps and bioweapons on civilians. Other players will be able to join forces and use their special abilities and items to escape before time runs out. The Resident Evil Resistance open beta will start on March 27, 3 am ET for Xbox One and Playstation 4. It will begin at 1 pm ET on Steam. The open beta will continue until Resident Evil 3 launches on April 3, 2020.

Resident Evil Resistance will be included as part of Resident Evil 3 when it launches for the Xbox One, Playstation 4, and Steam on April 3. For more information on the game, visit the official Resident Evil website.
