Lately there has been a windfall of Resident Evil 5 content released, as we are drawing closer to the games release. Today fans have just gotten another little nugget of joy to nibble on. Thanks to Capcom, we are getting the first real glimpse of the Resident Evil 5 box art for Xbox360, and PS3.

The box art we are looking at is supposedly the same art we will see on the date of the games release, as Capcom has said “This art will dominate North American store shelves when the game launches on Friday, March 13th, 2009.”

It seems the cover confirms that the main plot line of the game will revolve around Sheva, and Chris, as I am sure you have assumed. I am just hopping an image of the collectors edition comes out soon because that’s the one I will be drooling over.

Here’s a link to Capcom’s post on box art!

The fifth installment in Capcom’s super Survival Horror series Resident Evil 5 will be attacking the shelves March 13th, but until that day comes the ever growing Resident Evil 5 popularity cloud continues to swell. It has just gotten a little bigger with the release of the new screenshots on Capcom’s blog.

Just to be sure all you guys are up to speed. Here is a quick list of the major RE5 info Capcom has released on their Blog.

The new batch of Screen shots show some images of Chris and Sheva. Also some Zomibe dogs whose heads open up and reveal…well in a word teeth. They also show a giant deformed bat, that seems to splash some type of goo on Sheva.
