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)_/¯

We mainly focus on local as importing can come with certain restrictions too - but if w eget enough demand we import

@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 Village Releases on May 7th, 2021 - Demo Now Available for PS5

by Sam Aberdeen on 22 January, 2021

Last night, Capcom hosted their Resident Evil Showcase, with the star of the show being the upcoming Resident Evil Village. The game received a new trailer along with details about its release date, various editions, and of course, a four-minute long dive into the gameplay. While nothing substantial was shown, we finally got answers to a few questions - particularly the name of the tall vampire lady - and many more tidbits, including some context in the story and characters, old and new to the franchise.

Resident Evil Village will once again feature Resident Evil 7: Biohazard protagonist Ethan Winters, with Chris Redfield caught in the mix somehow too, also keeping the first-person perspective. The tall vampire lady of Village's looming castle is named Lady Dimitrescu, who answers to one "Mother Miranda" (though that was never completely answered). It looks like Ethan will be in hot water as he ventures into the castle to rescue his daughter.

Resident Evil Village's release date was also confirmed for May 7th, 2021, and will be launching on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC. PS4 and Xbox One players will get free upgrades to their current-gen counterparts.

Check out the full showcase below:



In addition to the release date announcement, Capcom also shadow-dropped a demo available right now for PlayStation 5. The demo, titled "Maiden", doesn't put players in the shoes of Ethan, but rather the titular maiden as they're tasked with escaping the dungeon. Seems simple enough, but the only problem is you won't be able to use any combat or block - quite similar to the first demo released for Resident Evil 7. Right now, the demo is only available on PS5, but Capcom announced plans to roll it out soon on other platforms too.

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