PSP2, Switch 2 and an Xbox handheld... a brighter portable future?

Hopefully, to make up for being late to the party, Vita owners will get the full box experience, with all Complete Season content, two additional spin-off episodes that focus on telling the side stories of each of the two new Resident Evil characters: Moira Burton and Natalia Korda, an additional Raid mode characters Hunk and Albert Wesker, four alternative costumes and the Raid Mode "Throwback Stage Pack" featuring four stages from recent Resident Evil titles.
