No, this isn't a dream: Resident Evil, Lost Planet, and Gears of War have all combined and met on the Lost Planet 2 battlefront!

Capcom revealed yesterday that players will be able to unlock and play as infamous Resident Evil antagonist Albert Wesker in Lost Planet 2. There is one small catch, however; this character skin is a GameStop pre-order perk.

Playing as Wesker isn’t incentive enough, you say? Well, taking advantage of this pre-order promotion will also add an exclusive ‘one shot kill’ revolver to the player’s in-game arsenal – perfect for poppin’ skulls. Happier?

Sadly, this offer is relevant only to North American gamers at present, but while we Europeans wipe the tears from our eyes you lucky folk across the pond can place your order now. Just click here.

Lost Planet 2 will release in Japan this winter, according to Capcom. It's still hazy when it'll release everywhere else. Just cross your fingers for Spring 2010, eh? Read more »
