Look out Zombies! New Resident Evil 5 Co-Op Screens


The zombies in Resident Evil games always had the upper hand, they only had to worry about one person trying to explode their head with a shotgun. The tide has turned in Resident Evil 5 as we've got two gunslingers in action at once. Of course, that's twice the brains for zombies to eat!
The 2 player co-op title which features a seamless drop in/drop-out experience is set to hit early next year on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360; and the game is designed from the ground up for cooperative play. I seem to be saying that a lot lately.
Capcom has released almost two dozen screenshots showing off the co-op action and hud. Hit the Read More link for the full gallery.

That said, I hope coop adds to the horror aspect rather than taking away from it. I can see having two people playing making some areas seem less frightening (removing the whole alone in the dark vibe). But, if it makes up for it by forcing you to worry about the safety of another player, then it taps into a whole different vein of scary, which is a good thing.
