Resident Evil Revelations is coming to PS4 and Xbox One in late 2017

Capcom has announced it is to re-release 2012 survival horror game Resident Evil: Revelations for the PS4 and Xbox One later this year. The Japanese publisher made the announcement on Twitter and said more details on the same will be "coming soon."

Resident Evil: Revelations was originally released for the Nintendo 3DS in 2012 before a HD version was ported to the Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U and PC in 2013.

Capcom said the game will be available both physically and digitally, arriving in North America and Europe in autumn.

They did not mention any specific details regarding price.

Featuring the iconic survival horror series' veterans Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield, Revelations is set between the events of Resident Evil 4 and 5.

An episodic sequel, Resident Evil Revelations 2 was released in 2015 for the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS Vita and PC.

The latest installment in the series, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard, was released on 24 January. The title's next free DLC "Not a Hero" will feature one of the series' main protagonists, Chris Redfield, Capcom revealed last month.

IBTimes UK's review of the game described it as "the best horror game since Creative Assembly's wonderful Alien Isolation."

"It's best if players slowly creak open the game's doors themselves, discovering the story and set-pieces on their own, as this is an experience that works best when it's free to surprise you, like a rotting doberman crashing through a window," our review read.
