Looks like fans of Sony’s online Home service are in for a real treat – a treat in the shape of additional Resident Evil 5 shaped content to help spice up their Home experience. Turns out that Capcom, in celebration of the upcoming release of Resident Evil 5, have worked their magic and crafted an absolutely stunning lobby area based on the African setting of the game, just for Home users to mingle in. The African lobby environment looks so incredible, you wouldn’t be blamed for thinking they integrated a portion of the full Resident Evil 5 game into Home. But they haven’t. Honest.
Capcom has also gone one better by including a small handful of additional statues to further decorate your Home’s… Home. The statues each represent one of the unique main characters from the full game; including Chris Redfield, Sheva Alomar and Albert Wesker. At this point it is unclear if these statues are unlocked via the PlayStation 3’s trophy system or as purchasable DLC. We’ll just have to wait and see.
