Pessimists and console fanboys may say PC gaming is dead, but with
Ubisoft's latest announcement, it may be more appropriate to call
in undead. The French publisher has signed a deal with Osaka-based
Capcom to distribute three of its games, including Resident Evil 4,
for the PC in Europe and North America.
In addition to the previously rumored RE4, Ubisoft will distribute
PC versions of Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening Special Edition
and Onimusha 3: Demon Siege. All three games appeared on the
PlayStation 2, with Resident Evil 4 also appearing on the
GameCube.
This isn't the first trip on the PC for the Resident Evil series.
The original Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2, and Resident Evil 3:
Nemesis have all scared the wits out of PC gamers over the years.
The Devil May Cry and Onimusha series, on the other hand, are
making their debut on the platform.
Onimusha 3 for the PC will be the first game to hit stores when it
is released in February. Ubisoft has not yet announced release
dates for the other two titles.
