Speaking at ECTS, Capcom producer Tsuyoshi Tanaka heaped doubt on the possibility of the hotly anticipated network horror title Resident Evil Outbreak making it online in Europe.
In some amazing news, Tanaka left us stunned when he said, “Unfortunately, we don't know if it will be possible at this time to release an online version in Europe”.
The PlayStation 2 title is Capcom’s premier online offering for the console. As to why it’s in doubt is anyone’s guess, though Capcom Europe is remaining tight-lipped as ever.
Perhaps it’s a problem with broadband adapter installed base? Perhaps it’s a problem with broadband penetration across Europe? As soon as this is clarified, you’ll be the first to know.
