Capcom listened! Local co-op added to Resident Evil: Revelations 2 for PC

Feature currently in open beta

There was drama last week surrounding the lack of splitscreen cooperative play in the Campaign and Raid Mode of Resident Evil: Revelations 2 for PC — not only because that’s a nice feature to have, but because Capcom “mistakenly” listed it in the product description on Steam. Whoops.

The company has since come back with an unexpectedly quick resolution. Local co-op can now be patched in (install instructions here), though the feature is in beta. There are known issues. “For anyone who isn’t satisfied with this option, refunds are available through Steam,” says Capcom.

I’m still trying to decide if I should get into Revelations 2 for a single episode, or if it’s best to commit to the full package. Also, which platform to go with. This update has me leaning toward PC.
