Official 'Resident Evil 2' Leon S. Kennedy R.P.D. Hoodie is Up For Pre-Order

A Capcom-official Resident Evil 2 Leon S. Kennedy hoodie styled after Raccoon Police Department (R.P.D) gear is available to pre-order right here for $69.99 with free U.S. shipping slated for February.

Unfortunately, we're still waiting on an official image of the finished product, but Merchoid has always carried some very high quality hoodies, so the R.P.D. version promises to be pretty spectacular when it's fully unveiled. Plus, quantities appear to be very limited on this design, so you might want to reserve one in your size sooner rather than later. If you're looking for something a bit cheaper, an R.P.D pocket shirt is in the works for $29.99 with free shipping.

A matching R.P.D baseball cap is also up for pre-order, and we know from the image that's it's produced by Lvlp, who have made a name for themselves with their gaming gear (we really liked their Persona 5 collection). They might be responsible for the hoodie as well.

On a related note, you might be interested to know that the Umbrella Corporation has released an official hoodie and track jacket for $60.99 each with free U.S. shipping.

Ordinarily you would have to be an Umbrella Corporation employee to get one of these garments, but it would seem that they're looking to revamp their tarnished brand with some slick styles - at a profit of course!

The release date for the hoodie and track jacket is slated for January 18th.

Finally, the remake of Resident Evil 2 will hit the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC on January 25th, and if you haven't got your pre-order in yet, you might want to consider this deal from Best Buy.

If you pre-order any of these versions of Resident Evil 2 for the PS4 or Xbox One, you'll be treated to this badass Steelbook case for free. If you are unfamiliar with the remake, the updates are outlined in the official description below:
