Capcom reveals the outside packaging for Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles

The North American box art for Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, as posted on Capcom-Unity today, is very blue. We suspect its overwhelming, vivid blueness will draw attention from retail shoppers.

Once they focus more on the luminous blue object on the shelf, they'll see Leon Kennedy (last seen holding a gun in a somewhat different position on the RE4 Wii Edition box) and Claire Redfield in the front, and Code Veronica's Steve Burnside (who may as well be Leon) and ... some guy in the background. Also, zombies.

See the full box art after the break!

Remember, Resident Evil 4, Krauser and Leon seemed to have some history, but none of that was ever explained really. They just brought Krauser in and basically said "Oh yeah, Krauser and Leon have met on at least one occasion in the past." Seeing how Umbrella Chronicles gave more details as to how and what happened between the games, I'm sure Darkside Chronicles will do the same. In this case, it would be explaining how Krauser and Leon met. This is of course presuming that IS Krauser and not Wesker or Mr. X.
