Resident Evil: Revelations may not be ensconced within your 3DS for a while to come, but Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D, Capcom's other 3DS RE title, is apparently a lot further along. This week's Famitsu magazine features lots of new screens, some new gameplay details, and a partial list of characters featured, including Chris Redfield, Claire Redfield, Hunk, and Jack Krauser.

The Mercenaries 3D is largely an updated port of the "The Mercenaries" modes from the past three RE titles -- bonus modes, usually unlocked after finishing the main game, that pit your characters against both a horde of zombies and a strict time limit. "The Mercenaries mode was just bonus material up until now," noted RE: Revelations director Koushi Nakanishi, "so a lot of gamers never even got around to playing them, I don't think. You had to finish the main games to unlock them, which made them tough to access in the first place, and a lot of the challenges were pretty sadistically balanced besides."
