Better late than never I guess...
I kinda assumed it would get the DLC, since they were doing the GFWL removal anyway, but it's nice to get confirmation.
Aye, that's what I'm hoping for
I just hope it's for everyone so anyone who already owns the game on Steam gets the DLC for free (assuming it's coming that is)Hyrule Warrior

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.

If that would be the case, then it'd be great if the migrate it all to steamworks.

I'm just expecting the base game to be given out with the dlc being separate. Ultra Street Fighter 4 as an example.
Nope. This is new, and great news.
All we knew before was that RE5 would eventually remove GFWL.

About damn time!
The DLC isn't available on PC at all, so that isn't a problem they'd have to rectify. I expect the DLC will probably cost something.
The PC version already had the Deathmatch stuff. The 'Gold edition' extras are more stuff for Mercenaries mode and two extra singleplayer (well, or co-op obviously) campaign scenarios.
I'm 99% sure it'll be free for existing owners. They had to work on the game anyway for the GFWL to Steamworks update. It still makes a nice incentive for people that never picked up the PC version at all.
Ignore that date, that's just something weird about how the PEGI site works, because it was the same for previous leaks. I assume that's just the date it was entered into their system.

Fucking finally Capcom.
no problem, i'm on it
Then you should have an awesome treat in store! Lost in Nightmares is one of the best pieces of DLC I have ever played.

Nice, I'll have an excuse to replay the game.
I imagine it'll be more of a

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.

RE5 gets so much shit, but it's a fantastic Co Op experience.

Better be free with the GFWL patch. Bioshock 2 had spoiled me.

It's Capcom and an opportunity to make money. If they can squeeze even $5 out of this, they will.
That said, I really hope they prove me wrong.

Where's the wrestling GIF for Yes!
Because that's exactly how I'm feeling. I figured we were getting it but this all but confirms it. I bet this will be a purchase able upgrade for those already owning it like with SF4AE to SF4U.
Hopefully the dead rising 2 plans now include the 360 Download games so we can almost have all of DR in one place. Since both were slated to get GFWL and both have Become silent.

OH BOY HERE WE GO. Best Mercs (Well RE6 is technically superior but RE5 Reunion was way too fun) BEST COSTUMES PC never got and two okay side episodes. Will definitely buy.
Agreed.
They technically could charge for it but it's also pretty common to just include DLC for free in late PC ports, also cases like Bioshock 2's update including Minerva's Den. I'm also assuming including the DLC was actually far less work than the actual Steamworks update. I don't expect them to charge for it. Considering how old it is IMO it makes more sense to just include it for free to score some brownie points. It'll still increase the legacy value of RE5 PC anyway.
