Capcom's going trailer crazy with its admittedly gorgeous-looking Resident Evil: Mercenaries, headed for 3DS in June in Japan, and (hopefully) shortly later in the west.
The new trailer below is short but gives you a quick look at the game's starring characters, the two-player co-op mode, the guns and the zombie hordes, as well as teasing how stunning it looks on the 3D handheld.
He also revealed that DLC isn't ruled out, although Capcom would need to consult Nintendo on the specifics of releasing download content. A skill system will be present, with players progressing through different grades as they shoot their way through the zombie hordes, and earning medals while they're at it.
He insists the game is "huge", but goes on to hint that there are more revelations to come pertaining to a feature that will enhance replayabililty.
Capcom previously confirmed that Mercenaries will come with a demo for Resident Evil: Revelations - the less arcadey, more conventional horror game of the two.

If that's actual gameplay footage I'm more than impressed. It can't be. Can it?

They'll probably ask Nintendo how to lock out content that's already on the 3DS cart...

Yeah I played it at the 3DS event and it looks really good but as someone else mentioned Revelations looks even better and I think thats why its being released next year and not rushed for this year. I was in 2 minds about buying Mercenaries but with online and offline Co-op plus the Revelations demo its a must buy.
