This just gets stranger and stranger. Capcom have unveiled the first two new characters which will be playable in the Mercenaries Reunion mode in Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition, both of which you can see in a video to your left.

Trailer featuring Chris wearing his spiky warrior outfit whilst fighting in the new Mercenaries Reunion mode, which is available on the DLC.The gold edition features plenty of new content catered specifically for long time fans of the series. You can see a schedule of when to expect the forthcoming DLC below:
Lost in Nightmares 17/2/10
Costume Pack 1 17/2/10
Episode 2 3/3/10
Costume Pack 2 3/3/10
Lost in Nightmares 2/18/10
Costume Pack 1 2/18/10
Episode 24/3/10
Costume Pack 2 4/3/10
However if you want all the downloadable content simply wait for the Gold Edition to make its full retail release on March 12th for 360 and PS3 next year.
We really liked Resident Evil 5 when it was released earlier this year and even though it was a bit more action orientated than we expected from Capcom's flagship franchise, it was still as enjoyable and silly as ever.
There's still plenty more to be revealed for this post-release special edition, so keep checking back for more information.
