That's right. Resident Evil Revelations 2 has been delayed and according to what Capcom says it is all for "extra polish" to be placed on the game when it finally launches on the PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. That pretty much means that the QA department over there found too many bugs that caused enough issue for a recall to be made. It's either that or there is some other huge conspiracy for the se7en day delay until February 24th for Resident Evil Revelations 2. Could there be?
Before we start making things up as we go, here is the updated schedule for Resident Evil Revelations 2 after the 7 day delay.
PlayStation Store North America | PlayStation Store EMEA territories | Xbox Live Global | Steam Global | |

With all that Resident Evil Revelations 2 7even day delay mumbo jumbo going on "for polish" I think it is time to address the hidden elephant here. This is truly all some big conspiracy and I'm going to crack it before the internet goes a-buzz. Resident Evil Revelations 2 is delayed 7 days. We are still waiting for Resident Evil 7. This is really all some clever way to make us long even more for the title that according to industry experts should have been announced before Resident Evil Revelations 2 and Resident Evil HD REmaster. Capcom has just been trolling us with all of these things. Resident Evil Revelations 2 is just the in-between-quel for Resident Evil 6 and Resident Evil 7. Face it.
Why else would there be a se7en day delay for Resident Evil Revelations 2? It's all a marketing ploy and we are falling right in to it. Polishing a title? Malarkey! It's all to quietly announce Resident Evil 7 and not because Capcom want to make sure that Resident Evil Revelations 2 isn't a broken game. I mean, look at the opening cinematic again and tell me that isn't what they are planning over there in their Umbrella-like company there.

Then again…this could all just be me stretching out a delay announcement longer than it needs to be to keep you reading my nonsense… Like I would do that. Although I am going to totally claim calling Resident Evil 7 if Resident Evil Revelations 2 is just as I jested above.
