<\/em><\/strong>Steam is holding a mid-week sale on select Resident Evil titles, likely in anticipation of the upcoming release of Resident Evil 6.<\/p>\n

The sale puts some alluring prices on Resident Evil 5, and Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City and its DLC expansions.<\/p>\n

The games are going for half-price, with Resident Evil 5 tagged at $9.99 (R82.30), and Operation Raccoon City at $24.99 (R205.83). Instead of buying the individual DLCs, you could also grab the Operation Raccoon City Complete Pack for $38.94 (R320.75), which includes the two Echo Six expansions, a costume pack and more.<\/em><\/p>\n

This should give those who never got the chance to play Resident Evil 5 and Operation Raccoon City enough chance to blast through some zombies and get their skills up to scratch, before the release of Resident Evil 6 on 2 October 2012. So head over to the Steam Store<\/a> and check out the special.<\/p>\n

MyGaming was lucky enough to get some hands-on time with the game, so check out the preview if you want to learn more: Resident Evil 6 hands-on preview<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
