Resident Evil Revelations 2 Released; Missing Co-op Complaints

Steam News announces the launch of Resident Evil Revelations 2 / Biohazard Revelations 2 on Steam, offering the first installment in the episodic entry in the survival/horror series. An issue with the release has cropped up, however, as co-op support is not included in the Windows edition, in spite of the following entry in its feature list: "Assistive co-op play – Players will need to switch between the two characters (Claire/Moira, Barry/Natalia) to overcome the nightmares in either single player mode with an AI partner or offline co-op." NeoGAF is one of the place where complaints about this situation abound, and VG247 has a follow-up response about what's going on from Capcom which explains that online co-op support is coming to PCs in a patch, but offline co-op is not, in spite of it still being listed as a game feature: "The decision to prioritize a single local screen was made to ensure a stable user experience across a variety of different PC settings and devices. Raid mode will support online co-op shortly after launch when a free patch is available for players to download which adds this feature, but the main campaign on PC will only be available to play in single local screen." Now that we've got that figured out, here's a launch trailer and word on the game itself:

The beginning of the Resident Evil Revelations 2 tale sees fan favorite Claire Redfield make a dramatic return. Survivor of the Raccoon City incident depicted in previous Resident Evil games, Claire now works for the anti-bioterrorism organization Terra Save. Moira Burton, is attending her welcome party for Terra Save when unknown armed forces storm the office. Claire and Moira are knocked unconscious and awaken later to find themselves in a dark and abandoned detention facility. Working together, they must find out who took them and to what sinister end. Will Claire and Moira make it out alive and discover what’s led to them being taken to this remote island? A story of twists and turns will have players guessing the next step at every turn.
