Free Resident Evil 6 DLC Coming Soon

Free Resident Evil 6 DLC Coming Soon

The game gets more difficult and Ada Wong makes a new friend

Written by Lexual on 11 October 12 at 17:25

In a recent blog post from Capcom Unity, it has been announced that two free DLC items will arrive for Resident Evil 6 as a title update sometime in the near future. Firstly, this title update will add the new, even harder, ‘No Hope difficulty mode’ which will push your BOW combating skills to their limits.

The update will also add a co-op partner for Ada's campaign, though there has been no confirmation as to who her partner will be. The campaign was originally meant as a solo experience for Ms Wong, but this change will now allow you to play through with a friend if you need someone to hold your hand. Additionally, this update will make Ada's campaign available from the start instead of having to complete all three of the primary campaigns beforehand.

To clarify, Capcom have said that “some data of this update is on the disc, but said data is incomplete and requires the actual download to access”. All future paid DLC, such as the multiplayer modes that were revealed last month, are not on the disc.

I can see the Multiplayer stuff already being on the disk as well... I trust Capcon as far as I can throw them.

Good on them for not charging for the locked content, but this begs the question...why the hell is it locked in the first place if they're just gonna give it away? That makes even less sense than charging for it! I mean, I know it says that it's "incomplete," but I get the feeling that "incomplete" is code for "you need the DLC key to use it."

You better still be able to play Ada's solo :O it's my 2nd favourite campaign. Hopefully they add an achievement for completing 'No Hope' difficulty.

Ada being unlocked from the start will ruin the story for those who dont play it last.

Please no No Hope difficulty achievement, I still have yet to do Pro. Co-op for Ada is something unexpected, especially with the way the game has turned out. With her being unlocked at the beginning, it's gonna spoil a lot of events if someone plays hers first...

I mean, I know it says that it's "incomplete," but I get the feeling that "incomplete" is code for "you need the DLC key to use it."I thought someone said that there's going to be a DLC that automatically unlocks Ada's campaign, and it won't require you to beat the other three. So, I'd think it would be this one. Not sure why, but who knows.

Ada's co-op character is just a filler called "The Agent". He looks a bit like Hunk. I assume he's just a random mercenary.

Shit it made me crap creamy for 2 days!Yes, desperate Escape is some seriously screwed up shit on Professional. Me and a friend were stuck for about 2 hours only at the Finale, until we gave up. Then we tried it the next weekend and did it in about half an hour. You just have to hope that you get the easy enemies at the end. If you get the Army guys, you´re screwed. If you get the Village guys, it´s actually very easy.
