Resident Evil 5: Desperate Escape revealed, detailed photo

We already knew that something called Desperate Escape was coming our way, but now we know more on what this DLC for Resident Evil 5 is about.

In my last story on the topic I suggested that Desperate Escape was about Chris and Jill eating at fine restaurants and then "dining and dashing." Turns out that I was way off. As fun as that would have been, Escape tells the story of how Jill Valentine and BSAA Agent Josh Stone as they escape from the Tricell facility.

Jill was under mind control. Josh springs her. They sneak out at night. They fight baddies. They go find Chris and Sheva. They kick ass.

Between this and the other DLC, Lost in Nightmares, you'll spend plenty more quality time with RE5. Along with this, new costumes are coming. Sheva gets a business look while Chris goes all metal. All of this stuff will be on Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition when it comes out.

After the jump, we have a full release schedule for all of the RE5 DLC for both consoles.

Oh, and damn, grrrl. Nice skin-tight suit.

Nice to see some real (read: single-player) DLC for this.

She's wielding a Skorpion. Can she dual-wield?

I don't mean that in the potentially pervy sense of the phrase.

Wait a second. Did Josh and Jill actually ever meet in the game? I don't think this fits into the game's continuity. The RE games may not be known for their plots making logical sense, but they've always at least been fairly accurate with their timelines.

Finally, a reason to play RE5 again. My copy's been collecting dust and I hate how it stares at me when I open the game drawer...

This looks awesome, only I wish some of the costumes weren't so got damn ridiculous. Really, who the hell would want to play as or with Chris dressed up in that gimp get-up?! Not I. Oh, well... The new missions are gonna be sweet.

I don't understand how Jill meets Josh. Doesn't he die, too?

@Gen Eric Gui: Josh and Jill are both on the helicopter that saves Chris/Sheva at the end of the game (Josh is flying, Jill is manning the RPGs). They had to have met at some point.

Oh, I don't remember seeing Josh at all. I thought he died.

Well, that solves that mystery.

The "download token" thing kills me... Why couldn't it just have been on a second disc? Well, since I hate downloading stuff like this, I'll be getting Gold for the PS3. I don't mind paying a bit more for a retail copy.

With the greatest amount of respect to the people who thought Josh die, he was CLEARLY was one flying the helicopter at the end of the game.

There was even a close-up of him at the ending

Honestly, i don't know how anyone who actually beat the game would've missed it.

I am interested to know why that is.

Will buy on disc.

@ Gen Eric Gui- My guess is that Josh meets Jill after Chris and Sheva shoot her multiple times then rip that mind control thing off her cleavage.

God, RE5 is so stupid, but I still can't help but like it.

Download token? wtf? what about us Arcade owners? nice, real nice, fuck you Capcom, fuck you.

Ah k i get it, like RE4 where Ada goes on a timed mission to hand Leon that RPG. Jill and Josh is going to pilot that heli into the Volcano, then Josh is going to be a dick and lift the heli too soon almost killing Chris lol.

And something tells me if they port this to the next Wii, they are just going to get the gold edition as standard, way late but luckier than PC tsk, and heaps better than 360 arcade owners lol.

They are in the helicopter that helps you escape at the end. So this is how Jill gets from that boss fight with Wesker to the helicopter, she escapes with Josh.

Capcom told G4 when they asked that there are no plans for the DLC to come to the PC at all.

RE5 was great. Unfortunately I got into the game during a suicide in my fiancee's family and haven't touched the game since. It's just weird to be playing RE5 all the time and then hear about someone killing them self, the emotional ties to that game are all fucked up now when I turn it on because it takes me back to that day.

Sorry to hear about that. It's so strange how a video game can bring back so many memories... Good and bad. The summer my Dad passed away, in 2002, Super Mario Sunshine was released. Needless to say, I was depressed and playing the game allowed me time to escape reality for a bit. To this day, when I think about or play Sunshine it brings back those memories. Still, I try to stay positive and realize the game actually helped ease pain. Gotta love Mario! =)
Also, fuck those ridiculously hidden blue coins! =/
