IGN writes: "The two upcoming episodes, Lost in Nightmares and Desperate Escape, will be debuting as downloadable goodies on Xbox Live (400 Microsoft Points each) and the PlayStation Network ($4.99 USD each) before the release of the all-inclusive Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition. So basically, if you've never played Resident Evil 5 before and want a version that includes absolutely everything, you're going to want to wait for the Gold Edition to be made available in the United States, which happens on March 9, 2010 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. All the additional content, including additional character costumes, episodes, and a revamped Mercenaries mode will be on the Gold Edition PlayStation 3 Blu-Ray disc, and on Xbox 360, you'll get the game disc along with a download token for the extra stuff"
