A few days ago there was a rumor from PlayStation Lifestyle that Microsoft was trying to swoon Capcom into making Resident Evil 5 a timed exclusive for the Xbox 360. Well, upon hearing this possible news the Capcom message boards were lit up by several users who were so bitterly outraged that they expressed their dismay in respectable fashion!

…yeah, doesn’t sound so awesome when you put it that way, does it? Anyways, a moderator on Capcom’s message board, a man by the name of ‘Sven’ whose avatar shows a man in killer shades and sporting an impeccable goatee, has calmed the masses and reassured the world that Resident Evil 5 is, in fact, going to be released simultaneously.

The assertion is false. RE5 is a multiplatform release that fits with our oft-stated crossplatform strategy.

For the avoidance of doubt… simultaneous release.

Good deal, Capcom. Good deal.
