Yahoo! News is reporting that early copies of Revelations may have a typo on the box art. According to them, Capcom has acknowledged the mistake by stating, "We are working on a solution to provide affected customers with the correct packaging. Please visit Capcom-Unity for updates."

The typo reads Revelaitons instead of the proper spelling. It's unconfirmed if this only affected early review copies of the game or if any retail copies will be affected as well. You can check out the article and see a picture of the typo on the box art here.

Late last year Capcom announced that Resident Evil Revelations would arrive on a 4GB card instead of the standard 2GB card; this increase in memory size led to an increase in price as well, raising the retail cost to $49.99. However, today the company has announced they are "exceedingly pleased to say that after weeks of effort, we've been able to lower the price to $39.99".
