Resident Evil 5 - 2 Player Online Co-Op

16 Comments by ResidentEvilNews.com in RE News

All of our prayers have been answered: Resident Evil 5 is officially going to sport a very sexy 2 player online co-op feature. I'm sure I speak for all Resident Evil fans when I say: Thank you, Capcom!! Now, if only you would add 2 player co-op to Devil May Cry 5 then then would be like all my birthdays and Christmases rolled into one... ;)

GameSpot today printed a story covering their play through of the first two levels from Resident Evil 5. They even go on to explain how the first level - which is called "Assembly Place" - serves as a sort of introduction-come-tutorial to Resident Evil 5 and helps teach you the basics of the game; both Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar are present at the beginning of the game.

You'll also learn more about the online co-op component of Resident Evil 5 - which is sounding very exciting indeed. I personally cannot wait to explore the world of Resident Evil 5 online over Xbox LIVE with my friends - it's going to be an absolute blast! Perhaps we'll even see some Resident Evil 5 achievements which involve successfully performing tasks as a team - who knows.

Definitely be sure to check out GameSpot's write-up of their experience with Resident Evil 5.

    Ohh hell yeah! This is going to be sweet! I still don't think that this game is going to come out in October, but that is great to know that there will be co-op. I hope it is better then the co-op on the Wii. That one sucked.

    How can you be happy about 2 player co-op thats gonna take all of the creepyness out of it and just gonna make it worse. Co-op sucks for Resident Evil takes all of the fun out.

    I sure do hope you can get the some of these achievements over the online co-op... I don't like the prospect of babysitting Sheva on the higher difficulties.

    I played the demo on co-op with my friend, and now I'm wondering ... will the online co-op be like the co-op offline? If so, I think that will make the game a little less fun for those people with 12 inch T.V's :P
