Resident Evil 6

Capcom European E-Store Opens Later This Year, Pop-Up Store Offering £900 RE6 Jacket

Capcom has today announced that it's to open a European e-store later in the year, selling a whole range of Capcom products unavailable anywhere else in Europe. As an example, Capcom has activated a pop-up Resident Evil 6 store, selling a variety of exclusive RE6 editions and merchandise.

Currently, you can purchase three limited editions of Resident Evil 6 from the pop-up e-store, including the Tablet Case Edition with the game, a choice of four tablet cases with an Ada, Chris, Leon or Jake design, stickers and three Mercenaries DLC maps for £54.99 or the DSO T-shirt Edition with the game, a T-shirt, the Leon tablet case, stickers and the three DLC Mercs maps for £79.99.

However, the piece de resistance is the ultra limited Leather Jacket Edition, which bundles the game, all four tablet cases, stickers and the 3 DLC Mercs maps with a replica of Leon S. Kennedy's leather jacket. It look very cool, but will set you back a staggering £899. The leather jacket is limited to just 10 pieces in Europe, so have a look down the back of the sofa and have a quick whip round to see if you've got a spare £900 knocking about for one.

Have a look at the pricey leather jacket below. Resident Evil 6 is out on October 2nd.

I would not be surprised if i saw RE6 branded Capcom condoms to stop the spread of infection. Will also charge more for a glow in the dark version so people can see if any zombies are approaching them when they are doing it.

Sold for 1000€, produced for 30€. That's how it workds, nice Capcom! At least you make a lot of profit to create more DLC :-) (Disc Locked Content)

Ridiculous pricing.

Jacket look awesome. But 900 pounds is same price if you buy many games in few weeks months or a year depend you could spent 900 pounds for games. So I go for games, not one jacket. Look forward Resi Evil 6 so much.

I bet one of famous stars to buy this. :)

The jacket is a little cheaper than 900. You also get everything that comes in the 79 version. The more I look at it the more I want it or want to get it custom made

@15 There have always been people with more money than sense. Capcom wouldn't try offering this if they didn't think someone would bite.

Even though leather jackets are extremely uncool, just think of how good a leather jacket you could get for £900.

For any American users wondering, £900 is about $1400. That being said, go fuck yourself capcom

You pay for the jacket but the pockets are sewn up, you have to pay extra if you want them opened.

If it was his RCPD jacket from the second game I would be tempted (still wouldn't pay that for it though), but not for this, It just looks like a standard jacket you could get for £15-£30 anywhere else.

They did this with a few Dead Rising jackets didn't they? Who knows, they must have sold them if they're doing it again. It's a pass for me though. Even if I wanted it I'd only get two uses a year as warm as it is where I live.

Sorry no thanks. Why would I buy a jacket that reminds me of the horrible 4/5/6 story arc? no thanks. I'd rather play the originals, wear the infamous s.t.a.r.s outfit.
