Rachel has been confirmed by Capcom to be a playable character in the new Raid Mode for RE Revelations HD.

There will be a live stream from PAX EAST this weekend which showcase her in action.

Here's the link for the news (and new screenshots, including those with Wii U version and its Miiverse integration). Credit to Pikminister :

Thank you Capcom. Finally, playable Rachel. <3
Also, you missed that 'new' stalker enemy that's exclusive to Raid Mode.

[Kaine]

Good times, nice to see Rachel in Raid. Now the only thing that I would love to hear is that we'll get to play her in campaign, but I'm getting greedy, I know.

That enemy appears on campaign mode and Raid mode. And his name is Wall Blister.

Not that one. This one.

I guess its a spoiler to some so I edited it behind the spoiler tag:

That's not new... that's just Norman with a tan.

Holy HD BOOBAGE!

So, we get 12 characters with Rachel and Hunk, and there are no more characters from Revelations, so if the list doesn´t ends here, it must include characters from other games.

[Canas Renvall]

^ They've already confirmed this since the HD reveal. They said something along the lines of "HUNK and other series characters".

So is that a BOW version of Rachel chasing Rachel there?

[Graco]

Very seldom do I anticipate a port almost as much as I did the original. I love the new monsters. I hope they expand on the Raid Mode missions and give us some new story DLC too. All wishful thinking, but if they really want to push the envelope with a port they need to build more content around it from the feedback given by the original release. Adding Rachael was a good start but people will start clamoring for more replay value elements as well.

Here's to hoping.

RACHELCEPTION!

I guess the Wall Blister is another T-Abyss variation of the hunter. I'm sure this has been discussed, but that's the best explanation I can think of if the game itself does not give us one. Still wonder (as others have) why Gammas weren't in the game.
