Resident Evil Mercenaries Comes to iPhone with Four Player Online Support

3DS isn't the only mobile platform for Resident Evil Mercenaries. Capcom released "Resident Evil Mercenaries VS" today on iPhone.

Mercenaries VS features the same combat-focused play of the Mercenaries mode from RE5 and the upcoming 3DS title, The Mercenaries 3D. Players can select from three characters, Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine and Albert Wesker.

Both single and multiplayer modes are included. Single player is a practice mode. Multiplayer includes support for internet Wi-Fi play for up to four players and local Bluetooth play for up to two players. When playing multiplayer, you can select between quick match, where the game selects your fellow players for you, and custom custom match, where you invite other players to join in.

During multiplayer combat, you can select between team play, where you split into two teams, or single play, where everyone is on their own. You'll also have to deal with the zombies that prowl the stages.

iPhone (3GS and up) and iPod touch (third generation and up) users can download Resident Evil Mercenaries VS from the Appstore today at ¥450. The app's regular ¥600 price point will kick in on the 21st.
