Resident Evil 6 DLC Detailed

Resident Evil 6 DLC Detailed

Post-launch online modes will eat your brains

Written by Kendrene on 11 September 12 at 18:30

Zombies are after your brain and Capcom is after your hard-earned MSP. The developer has announced that new online modes will be available after Resident Evil 6 launches on October 2nd. Three new gameplay modes will be made available as DLC and aim to expand on the multiplayer elements playable in the retail version. Below you can find a detailed description of the additional modes:

Survivors Mode: this mode adds a twist to classic solo- and team-based versus modes. Get killed and you respawn as an enemy character with the ability to attack the human characters. Take down two human characters to resurrect in human form. Last man or team standing wins.

Predator Mode: one player takes on the role of the Ustanak, the fearsome B.O.W. that stalks Jake Muller throughout his campaign, and tries to eliminate the human players. The humans’ task: stop the deadly B.O.W. in its tracks, or at least survive until the end of the session.

Siege Mode: choosing the human side in this mode will see players protecting a single NPC, while as a member of the enemy team, players will need to eliminate that same NPC. If the NPC is still alive at the end of the time period, the human team wins.
The additional modes will support up to six players online and be played on the same maps featured in Mercenaries Mode. By registering on ResidentEvil.net, players will be able to track their stats for these DLC modes, alongside their main game accomplishments.

Further post-launch downloadable content will include additional maps for Mercenaries, which can in turn be used as maps for Survivors, Predator and Siege modes, plus other items yet to be announced.

Don't forget, a demo will hit Xbox LIVE on September 18th, with the full title debuting in stores on October 2nd.

-sigh- Like ME3, D1 DLC will upset alot of customers, epsecially if the euros have to pay for it when they get the superior collector edition. On the plus side, id kill for one of the collector edition sweatshirts XD Looks good, RE: ORC made me ragequit the whole RE series since I dumped alot into a what looked good, later to see it was a hackjob of a apoc-killathon

I was intrigued when RE6 was first announced, but the more I hear about it, the less I'm inclined to play it.

It would've been great to hear these are the modes for the game when it comes out for FREE, but as many have said before, Cashcom is proving that they will never change. I'm starting to have second thoughts about buying RE6 but odds are I won't even touch these modes anyway (Predator is the only cool one in my opinion) as I will just be replaying the story trying to grind skill points to get everything fully upgraded/unlocked like with RE5.

It's Capcom we're talking about here so it's nothing suprising.

Ya, this is a horrible way to market a new game. Wait until the game is out before broadcasting you have DLC in the works.

I've always felt that DLC was a way for companies to extend their product beyond it's normal life span. However, when they come out with DLC right away, all they are doing is showing that they want to sell a game for more than $60.

OT: I have no interest in RE6, so I won't even buy the game,much less this DLC.

Jeez people I dislike Day one DLC but this is just planned normal DLC I didnt see this many people rage when Borderlands 2 announced PLANNED DLC
People are always raging when DLC is announced before release the game is finished so said company will do EXTRA work and ADD MORE CONTENT if you work overtime you get paid extra why shouldnt developers get their extra money (that said this is only saying IF this DLC is released after Day 1 and NOT ON DISC) if somone backworks hacks or whatever its called and finds it on disc rage away)
Point is DLC is not randomly splotched on anymore its planned and built (just like the game) if you rage that Planned DLC is announced you should also rage when a game is planned
Gamer1: Did you hear Borderlands 2 was announced Gamer2: Damn it why the hell do they always have to "announce" things its like they want people to buy it. I should be able to go to the store and find it without it being told to me.. two months after all my friends are done with it. Derp.
