Release Highlights

NOTE : If you are using the Resident Evil 5 tech demo please download the latest 3D Vision Beta driver CD v1.09 (3D Vision v190.38). PC gamers will get the most intense Resident Evil experience to date as Resident Evil 5 will take advantage of NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ technology (wireless 3D Vision glasses sold separately), bringing a whole new dimension of horror to PC Gamers. Fans that pick up the PC version will be the first to experience Stereoscopic 3D out of screen effects as their living rooms are transformed into the village of Kijuju. Infected Majini coming at players from every angle, dust flying in and out of screen and the scariest bosses to date are taken up a notch.
