The Resident Evil 5 demo will be along for the Xbox 360 on January 27th and then for the Playstation 3 on February 5th. Assuming it's the same as the demo released in Japan last month, it'll include the first two levels of the game, in which Chris Redfield and superhot sidekick Sheva take on infected/zombies in two different sections of an African town. The demos for both platforms can be played as single player games with the AI controlling Sheva, or cooperatively via split-screen or an online connection.

And if you simply don't want to wait to see what it looks like, YouTube is happy to spoil it for you. Here's the first part of the Japanese demo, and here's the second part.
