Resident Evil 6 Trailer Reveals A New Release Date

Resident Evil 6 Trailer Reveals A New Release Date

[UPDATE] New details on co-op play revealed

Written by N0T PENNYS B0AT on 10 April 12 at 14:43 , updated on 10 April 12 at 14:43

Update: A few brief but important details have been revealed at Captivate. As the trailer seems to suggest, the game is broken down to three different playable stories among Leon, Chris, and Jake Muller. However, the more notable part if that each of these three stories will allow for two-player co-op play. Leon is paired with US government agent Helena Harper, Chris Redfield teams up with fellow BSAA member Piers Nivans and Jake Muller is joined by Sherry Birkin, the daughter of former Umbrella scientists, William and Annette.

The focus in this game is the deadly new strain, the C-Virus, that creates traditional zombies, J'avos, and the Chrysalide, which will morph into an all-new enemy.

Original Story:
Capcom's annual convention, Captivate, is under way, and among all of their general hooplah, they released a new trailer for this fall's Resident Evil 6. Besides being a great trailer for fans to drool over, the last moments of the video reveal information that indicates the game's release date has been pushed up.



If you can't watch the video, it reveals the game's new retail street date as October 2nd, rather than November 20th. It looks like RE6 will now be one of the games to kick off the holiday gaming season.

Pushing the game up? As long as this doesn't mean bugs or anything of the sort I'm all for this move. That Wesker Jr twist is something to say the least. Will be interesting to see the chaos that ensues.

Shouldn't they have left revealing more about that character until we actually got to play the game? Really big spoiler if you ask me.

Will be buying because it has co-op, and my bro and I will need a new game to play by then, since we would have just finished Halo 4. Hoping for no multiplayer on this one though...
Yes, I know I am.

Really big spoiler if you ask me.That's usually why I'm hesitant to watch these sort of things. Avoided anything of the sort with Final Fantasy XIII-2. Not to mention that bit towards the end with it's all her fault...better be some major twists they are keeping from us.
