Capcom releases official Resident Evil 5 box art

Capcom has released the official box art for Resident Evil 5, showing Chris Redfield and newcomer Sheva Alomar back-to-back, along with some of the mysterious Kijuju scrawls in the background.

This morning Capcom revealed the official box art for Resident Evil 5, which sports the nifty glowing "5" shown in earlier trailers and some of the unofficial box art circulating the web. Known for their varying art depending on region, it's yet to be seen whether this art will differ from the PAL version of the game.

The artists behind the design integrated the location of the game nicely into the box art, as well as some of the mysterious "Kijuju" scribbles that have appeared on the official site. Take a look below, and let us know what you think. Additionally, if you missed our exclusive blowout of Resident Evil 5 in our January issue it's probably a good time to go check that out.

Why are so many people jacking off to this game?

Because RE 4 was AWESOME!!! This game is almost identical to 4 so people are creaming all over it. I can't wait. RE 4 is easily in my top 10 of all time.

looks really good!...but the game isn't Scary, it has alot of "jump of ur seat" moments, and that's really it...it's not scary, sorry but's that's how i feel about it

The Wii probably had the best RE4 box art... If they plan on reissuing this game for, like, every other console, the box art will probably only get better and better.

But this isn't too bad, just not particularly original.

its simple. BUT like several other Resident Evil box arts, its missing "enemies on it". Almost every Resident Evil box art has enemies on the front.
