The only reason I haven't picked up RE5 PC was the lack of the Gold Edition features. I'm guessing this also means RE.net integration as well?

Please, please, please let this be true. A dream come true.
RE5 DLC is some of my favorite DLC of all time, and it being on PC... oh, god. YES.
GOLD EDITION!
LOST IN NIGHTMARES PC!
This is stellar news! Thanks for sharing Duder!
So they will charge for a DLC that's almost 5 years old?
We don't know yet. If it's like how a number of games (though certainly not all) have handled the GFWL->Steamworks transition, it may be offered for free to everyone who already owns RE5 on Steam.
Yeah, a lot of publishers had a "be grateful you're getting it on PC at all" attitude. Late ports and late (or absent) DLC were pretty much par for the course.RE5 came out at a time that companies were just not seeing the profit potential in PC versions and a lot of them were gimped for downloadable content like that. I mean, the game used Games for Windows Live, so that just shows how much they cared about it at the time.
The PC version already had the Deathmatch stuff.
*snip*
I imagine it'll be more of a
Resident Evil 5
Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition
Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition Upgrade
scenario. I mean, it would be awesome if they gave all current owners the DLC, but new work went into new content and I don't think it's that crazy to expect people to pay for it.
Steamworks pls

Unless you're referring to mods then no, it did not. The deathmatch/survivors stuff was part of the Reunion DLC.
What I'm excited for is this will make it easier to integrate the already existing 4-player Mercs mod into the Reuinion stuff, giving everyone more of a seamless, less glitchy experience.
I've heard RE.net integration is pretty sloppy.
I thought digital games don't need a rating?
And the only difference is the DLC anyway, why would they show it to PEGI again?

Oh and WHERE THE FUCK IS SECTUS!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
A must-buy for Mercenaries Reunion

You guys talk the talk but will you walk the walk? I am personally and sincerely asking each and every one of you to PLEASE buy RE5 PC this time around if you already don't own it. Yes the game is old as hell but trust me when I tell you it's worth buying for The Mercenaries.
I kinda assumed it would get the DLC, since they were doing the GFWL removal anyway, but it's nice to get confirmation.
Capcom, now release Dragons Dogma on pc!
Only if they make it available to territories that couldn't buy it for GFWL. DS is on steamworks now but you still can't buy it in places that couldn't buy it when it was GFWL.
