Resident Evil: Degeneration Headed to Blu-ray; First Details

Sometime in December or at the latest January, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will release the first Resident Evil all-CGI movie on Blu-ray Disc, day-and-date with DVD and PSP.

Sony describes what will be the fourth Resident Evil film as follows:

The “Umbrella Incident” that took place in Raccoon City was ended with the eradication of the deadly virus by a missile attack ordered by the government. As its operations were suspended on a global scale, Umbrella Corporation stock plummeted. This serious blow to the business giant resulted in its complete dissolution.

7 years later, at an airport somewhere in the United States. An ordinary autumn afternoon. One zombie is unleashed into this peaceful scene to attack everyone. In the airport starting to fill up with the undead, the horrific disaster is about to be repeat itself…

We’ve got early Blu-ray specs and extra features to share which include a nod to Resident Evil 5 on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. In addition to a 1.78:1 1080p video transfer and 5.1 Dolby TrueHD audio, expect the following:

  • Interactive Picture-in-Picture (Blu-ray exclusive)
  • Trivia Track
  • The Making of Resident Evil: Degeneration
  • Character Profiles
  • Voice Bloopers
  • Leon Interview
  • Resident Evil: Degeneration Trailer Collection
  • Resident Evil: Degeneration Tokyo Game Show Trailer
  • Resident Evil 5 Video Game Trailer

Look for the official Resident Evil: Degeneration announcement in the weeks ahead with an exact release date, high resolution cover art and pre-order information.
