Resident Evil: Revelations and the Circle Pad Pro bundle is to be Zavvi exclusive, it has been revealed.
The edition will only be available in the UK from the online retailer, Nintendo confirmed to Eurogamer.
Selling at £39.95, it offers a significant saving compared to buying Resident Evil: Revelations and the Circle Pad Pro individually, which will retail for around £35 and £15 respectively.
Confirmed for Europe last year, the peripheral adds a second analogue stick and additional triggers to the Nintendo 3DS.
It will provide twin-stick shooter style controls for Resident Evil: Revelations, as well as more advanced button combinations.
Other compatible titles planned include Monster Hunter 3G, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D, Ace Combat 3D: Cross Rumble, Dynasty Warriors and Kingdom Hearts 3D.
Resident Evil: Revelations, which is set between Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5, sees Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield investigate bioterrorism threats across Europe.
While it will feature modern over-the-shoulder mechanics, it is designed as a darker, more tense experience, similar to earlier Resident Evil games.
It will also include a co-operative Raid mode with campaign missions that can be played either locally or online.
Both Resident Evil: Revelations and the Circle Pad Pro will be available from January 27 in Europe and February 7 in North America.
