Capcom has revealed that S.T.A.R.S. members Barry Burton and Rebecca Chambers will be unlockable as part of the upcoming additional content for Resident Evil 5.
The characters will be playable in "Mercenaries Reunion" mode, and will feature their own customized weapon load-outs. The characters will ship as unlockables on the Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition retail disc, which comes with both the "Lost in Nightmares" and "Desperate Escape" expansions.
If you already own Resident Evil 5, you can simply download the content. As for which pieces of downloadable content unlocks which characters, it gets a bit confusing -- Capcom made a chart to clear things up. My head hurts.
Hit the jump for the details, as well as a video of Barry in action.

oh god yes, so fucking awesome. mindblowing.
He even says "I have THIS!".
I got genuinely excited when I first found out.
Claire over Barry? No real Resi fan would ever suggest that.
Also awesome how you get Barry as part of one of the new chapters, instead of in a character pack.
Rebecca is a non-entity so I won't mention her any further.

Wow, Capcom listen again. When they asked what we wanted for DLC, I went back to Capcom Unity and suggested Barry, who hasn't been in the RE series since RE1.
Just shows, it pays to join Capcom Unity, and cheers for listening, Capcom.
Just saying.
Also, this DLC looks cool but I haven't touched this game in a long time.
I'm willing to bet it's a weapon that is reeeeeally powerful. Especially against living things.
Oh well, playing as Barry is gonna be kick-awesome.
Anyway, yes, I fucking loved RE:5! Even though most people took a poo on it. I loved every minute! And still play Mercs to this day, too.
About the DLC... Man, Barry is one brutal beast! Damn. And Rebecca is too cute, spraying the Majini in the face with one of her melee bottles of pain! Awww.
Can't wait! =)
