Capcom has announced the Resident Evil Resistance beta has been postponed on PlayStation 4 and Steam due to technical issues. However, the Xbox One version is unaffected and currently available for download.
Announced on Twitter, Capcom did not offer any kind of timetable for when the Resistance beta would be available. With the Resident Evil 3 Remake set to release on April 3, hopefully it won’t be too long.

Resident Evil Resistance is a multiplayer horror survival mode, where four players face off against a Mastermind. The four players’ goal is simple – survive – while the Mastermind is responsible for setting a variety of obstacles and traps to try and prevent survival.
Thus far, there are four confirmed Masterminds for Resistance – Daniel Fabron, Annette Birkin, Alex Wesker, and Ozwell E. Spencer. Each Mastermind will have their own unique set of abilities, giving some variety to the role. Additionally, Capcom has confirmed there will be both a prison and casino themed map available at launch.

Resistance is part of the Resident Evil 3 Remake which was announced in December. The game will feature protagonist Jill Valentine and the infamous antagonist Nemesis. Not only will he be scarier than ever, but he is trying to eliminate members of the Special Tactics And Rescue Service team, more commonly referred to as STARS.
A demo of the Resident Evil 3 Remake released on March 17 and is currently available for download in your platform’s store.
