Great news for Resident Evil fans! Capcom has today confirmed that Resident Evil 5 will feature Mercenaries Mode when it releases on Xbox 360 and PS3 next Friday, March 13.

The return of this bonus mode that was such a hit with owners of Resident Evil 4 sees players compete against the clock as they try to defeat as many enemies as possible in a given time limit.

In Resident Evil 5, Chris Redfield returns as the Resident Evil hero and heads to Africa where the latest bioterrorism threat is literally transforming the people and animals of the city into mindless, maddened creatures. Joining forces with a new partner, Sheva Alomar, the two must work together to discover the truth behind this evil plot. Utilising the new co-op mode, players will be able to assume control of either Chris or Sheva and experience Resident Evil in new ways.

The first level of the demo actually plays out in a simmilar fashion to mercenaries. I loved this mode in RE4 but I was never good enough to get five stars with everyone.

When playing as Wesker or HUNK, those chainsaw and chaingun guys had me every time :(
