Why wouldn't they stock the ME Legendary Edition, that makes zero [censored] sense. I get games like Judgement , 13 Sentinels and Atelier but ME is a big triple AAA franchise .

WTH!¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@Ghost - yeah for sure, I also only buy physical where possible. I like actually owning the product and having it in a collection. But times are changing and with direct to consumer sales, gaming retailers will mainly be for limited/ collectors editions, merch and hardware

In todays very heavy PC culture, where everything offends everybody. A lot of old movies/shows are getting censored. So if you collect physical media, then you have the original version.
Watching Scrubs on dvd, & a lot of that stuff would not fly today lol

@Tea. Thanks for the reply. I'm just disappointed, because i only buy physical copies. I hate digital. With physical copies i can take it to my friends house and i display all my games on my gaming wall. First it was Kena Bridge of Spirits and now It Takes Two. One day all gaming retailers will close down when everything is digital

Any chance you'll have stock of Judgement PS5 or KeyWe for Switch

Diverse tastes, I know

@Ghost- They actually allocate software per territory and we unfortunately are a digital only territory - we almost didn't get ME legendary edition in SA.

We are still trying to source physical but often it limited releases, which makes units hard to find

Resident Evil 7 PS5 and Xbox Series X/S Patch is Reportedly Coming

by Sam Aberdeen on 22 January, 2021

Capcom recently held its Resident Evil Showcase in celebration of the franchise's 25th anniversary, and while we did get an incredible dive into the upcoming Resident Evil Village, it looks like Capcom still had a trick or two up their sleeve that they failed to announce yet. This is according to a well-known Capcom insider who stated that the company were supposedly ready to announce a next-gen patch for Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, but for some reason didn't choose to reveal it.

Capcom insider Dusk Golem, who accurately leaked important information on Resident Evil Village before its reveal last year - as well as information on the Resident Evil 3 remake - stated that Resident Evil 7 would receive a patch to upgrade it to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, but the announcement wasn't made at the Showcase. If a patch is in the works to upgrade Resident Evil 7, it will come at a great time since the game is currently available for free on PS5 via the PlayStation Plus Collection. Resident Evil Village, meanwhile, is confirmed to receive a free next-gen upgrade if you buy the PS4 or Xbox One version to PS5 and Xbox Series, respectively.

I know VR was in at some point, I don't know the current status. To do VR they need a consistent performance for motion sickness, I guess to see. There is other things that are 100% happening they for some reason didn't mention here though, like the RE7 Next-Gen patch though. https://t.co/1zNHti0k0x

As with all reports and rumours, we recommend taking this with a grain of salt, though Dusk Golem has proven to be a credible source when it comes to Resident Evil information. Unfortunately, we're gonna have to wait a little while longer for Capcom to officially announce this if true, which will likely be before the launch of the next major game. There's no word yet on if the remakes for Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 will get the same treatment, but given how superbly they look on a technical level, it would be a great missed opportunity to not utilize the power of current-gen hardware in order to improve its crisp visuals and performance.

Resident Evil Village launches on May 7th, 2021 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC.

A reply was on the cards regardless, but this would sweeten the deal. Hope they can at least give the PS4 back-compat VR experience a visual boost as that was an incredible experience, but ugly as hell.
