    Overview

    No Caption Provided

    Resident Evil 6 is the eighth mainline entry--when including Code: Veronica & Zero--in the popular Resident Evil series, announced by Capcom on January 19th, 2012 and released at October 2nd, 2012. Set in 2013, four years after Resident Evil 5 (and 10 years since the downfall of Umbrella), Resident Evil 6 brings back the two most prominent leads Chris Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy to canonically star together for the first time in Resident Evil history.

    Shying away from a linear progression like the most recent Resident Evil titles, Resident Evil 6 allows players to select from any of the four available campaign stories--Leon, Chris, Ada, and the new character Jake Muller--in whichever order they so choose, somewhat reminiscent of the first two Resident Evil games. Despite this freedom of choice, it was suggested by RE6 director Eiichiro Sasaki that Leon's story be tackled first.

    Initially Ada's campaign had to be unlocked upon first completing the three prior campaigns, however via a patch update it is now available from the outset.

    Gameplay

    Overview & Controls

    Each of the four campaigns feature their own unique aesthetic for the HUD
    Each of the four campaigns feature their own unique aesthetic for the HUD

    Resident Evil 6 is an action-shooter with an over-the-shoulder perspective in the same vein as prior entries, Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5, though it features a "totally new control scheme" allowing much more manoeuvrability. This includes the ability to now move and shoot similar to the 3DS Resident Evil games, Mercenaries 3D and Revelations, and a full 360 movement scheme replacing the series' long-standing tank controls. Characters can now utilise a roll ability to help dodge incoming attacks and also now for the first time are able to quickly dive into prone and fire their weapon.

    RE6 sees the return of cover mechanics along with the newly introduced ability to sprint. While sprinting, the character will automatically vault over obstacles and jump across ledges without any additional player input. Because of the added ability to sprint, characters now run automatically by pushing on the analogue stick all the way; pressing it gently will have the character walk instead. The player's camera view has also been expanded, now allowing a full 360 degree perspective rather than being restricted to as far as the character's neck can turn.

    Additional customization options have been afforded for players within the options menu. These allow players to now freely switch between aiming from the right side or left, to whether or not their weapons will reload automatically, to choosing between the new cross-hair or the classic laser sight for aiming their weapons, to then even choosing from a small selection of colors for said laser sight.

    Melee & Quick Shot

    Melee combat has been heavily streamlined and can be utilised at any time--rather than requiring specific context-sensitive button prompts--which will allow the player to string together a few simple combos using the RT/R2 button. Context-sensitive prompt attacks are still available, however they have primarily been reduced to the available attack whence stunning an enemy via a headshot.

    Players may attack with a dive should they be in the middle of a sprint, and breakable boxes no longer require a knife and can instead be automatically destroyed with a regular melee attack. To compensate, characters have a stamina gauge that slowly depletes (but will recharge) after each melee attack; when timed correctly just before an enemy melee attack, the player can do a powerful counter attack. The gauge is used up when players make use of the Quick Shot ability, which allows the player to swiftly fire off a shot with their equipped weapon complete with auto-aim.

    Inventory

    Along with the overall control scheme, the inventory system has also been given a complete overhaul, now designed as two separate menus for supplies and weapons -- both of which the player must scroll through horizontally. The player may now move while perusing their inventory, though they control their inventory navigation with the right analogue stick temporarily removing control of the in-game camera. The player switches between the two menus using the RB/R1 button by default for the 360 and PS3 respectively.

    Health items can now be used with just a single button press as well. For a more convenient approach, the alternative is to use the directional buttons (left/right for weapons, up/down for supplies) to scroll. Items cannot be combined within this menu, however.

    Herbs & First Aid Sprays

    Herbs can once again be combined, but this time must be converted into 'tablets', which will allow players to heal themselves with just the press of a button rather than having to first select it out of their inventory; players can also tap the button consecutively to use multiple tablets at once. First Aid sprays must still be equipped for use, however. There exist no blue nor yellow herbs this time around and only green and red can be found and combined; red herbs still have no effect when used on their own.

    A list of the herb to tablet conversion is as follows:

    • Green Herb = One tablet
    • Green Herb + Green Herb = Three tablets.
    • Green Herb + Green Herb + Green Herb = Six tablets.
    • Green Herb + Red Herb = Six tablets.

    Should a player take enough damage, they will enter into a 'dying state. Here, the player can only crawl, but can also pull up their weapon and attempt to defend themselves. Unlike RE5, however, the player will eventually bring themselves back off the ground once enough time has passed without the player getting attacked; the player's partner character can also still revive the player as well to speed up the process. The player is still within the 'dying' state during this stage and must heal themselves, otherwise a single attack will kill them outright.

    Skill Settings

    Unlike Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5, players cannot buy weapons. Instead players will find all of each respective campaign's weaponry as the story dictates it, and certain weapons are exclusive across specific campaigns and even characters. Weapons cannot be upgraded either, and now players may purchase ''Skills'' and can equip three at a time. Players can create up to eight different combinations at once and then choose to switch between their configurations mid-game Most, but not all, Skills such as Piercing or Defense can be upgraded after they've been bought for an additional price, increasing their overall effectiveness.

    A list of the Skills are as follows:

    • Firearm - Increases firearm power.
    • Melee - Increases power during melee attacks.
    • Defense - Reduces damage received.
    • Lock-On - Steadies hand when shooting.
    • Rock Steady - Reduces recoil after shooting.
    • Critical Hit - Increases the chances of scoring a critical hit.
    • Piercing - Increases firearm piercing potential.
    • J'avo Killer - Increases strength of attacks on a J'avo.
    • Zombie Hunter - Increases strength of attacks on a zombie.
    • Eagle Eye - Adds an extra level of magnification to sniper rifle scopes (cannot be upgraded).
    • Quick Reload - Lessens the time required to reload weapons (cannot be upgraded).
    • Last Shot - Increases the strength of a players remaining shot.
    • Shooting Wild - Removes the player's targeting sight, but increases firepower.
    • Combat Gauge Boost - Increases the player's Combat Gauge by 3 blocks.
    • Breakout - Allows the player to break free more easily from an enemy's grasp.
    • Item Drop Increase - Causes more defeated enemies to drop items.
    • Recovery - Speeds up recovery when dying.
    • Team-Up - Strengthens a player's partner's attacks when they are near each other (Cannot be upgraded; Single player only).
    • Field-Medic - Allows the player's partner to give them health tablets when they're revived (Cannot be upgraded; Single player only).
    • Lone Wolf - Keeps the player's partner from helping them when they're in trouble (Cannot be upgraded; Single player only).
    • AR Ammo Pickup Increase - Allows players to pick up an increased amount of 5.56 NATO ammo.
    • Shotgun Shell Pickup Increase - Allows players to pick up an increased amount of 10 and 12 gauge shotgun shells.
    • Magnum Ammo Pickup Increase - Allows players to pick up an increased amount of .50 Action-Express and .500 S&W Magnum ammo.
    • Rifle Ammo Pickup Increase - Allows players to pick up an increased amount of 7.62 NATO and 12.7mm ammo.
    • Grenade Pickup Increase - Allows players to pick up an increased number of 40mm explosive, acid, and nitrogen rounds.
    • Arrow Pickup Increase - Allows players to pick up an increased number of normal and pipe bomb arrows.

    Cooperative

    4-player cooperative gameplay.
    4-player cooperative gameplay.

    Cooperative play is once again featured within the game, with each of the three storylines starring two main characters. Leon has Helena Harper at his side, Chris is teamed with BSAA marksman Piers Nivans, and Jake Muller is paired with Sherry Birkin. Matchmaking has been introduced to allow a more accessible venue for cooperative play, including drop-in drop-out capability. When played solo, players can now select which of the two main characters to star as, rather than having to complete the campaign first to unlock the secondary character. Like in RE5, the other character is taken control by an AI should it be a solo game. Though this time around there is no inventory management between the two characters, and the AI is invincible with infinite ammo.

    With each of the three stories primarily happening concurrently, this eventually allows certain characters to coincide with one another introducing the concept of 4-player cooperative play in Resident Evil 6. As long as the player(s) is online, once they reach a point in one of the stories (eg. Leon & Helena) where the cast will meet up with two from another story (eg. Jake and Sherry), the player is given the option to search online for any other player(s) who is currently at the same spot with the other characters. From there, the quadruple can then temporarily play together to fight against a specific story-dictated boss battle. Otherwise the player(s) can opt to fight alongside two temporary friendly AI's instead.

    Quick Time Events

    No Caption Provided

    QTEs once again return, though they are now much more prevalent overall than previous games in the series. They are still most commonly encountered should a player be grabbed by an enemy or in the case of bosses to sometimes avoid an attack entirely. Though unlike in Resident Evil 5 for example, some enemies will require the player to complete multi-tiered QTEs in a row, such as wiggling the stick and then having to time a button press afterwards to throw the enemy off.

    They are also encountered during specific cutscenes, where the player must press the on-screen prompts as they appear otherwise they will die. Sometimes players may also have to rapidly tap a single button as well, usually as a means to further illustrate a scene depicting a struggle for example. Not only do they occur during cutscenes, but even during in-game events as well. This includes a QTE involving the player dodging an incoming train, to one that has players climbing up a long string of rope by alternating between R2/RT and L2/LT at a specific pace.

    If playing cooperatively, cutscene QTEs are divided between players depending on which character is doing the action on-screen. Though there are still some that require both players to press the prompts simultaneously.

    Via an online patch, a setting was added so as to make cutscene QTEs automated with no fail state. However in-game QTEs will still persist.

    New Game+

    Like past Resident Evil games, Resident Evil 6 allows players to go through any of the completed campaigns with all the weapons they've found and as much ammo and healing supplies as how they left it. When playing through the already completed campaign with the alternate character, however, the player will begin with that character's default equipment only and will have to collect the campaign's set of weapons again. Though even when heading again with the same character as they completed the game with, the game will also give players the option to play through again with the character's default equipment should they so desire.

    Characters

    Leon S. Kennedy

    No Caption Provided

    After surviving Raccoon City and saving the President's daughter, Leon isn't ready to retire just yet. In fact he now must go back into the heart of the nightmare as his employer and the man he believes in most, the President of the United States, has turned into a zombie and another American City is overrun with infected.

    Helena Harper

    No Caption Provided

    Helena is a relatively new addition to the United State's Secret Service. Unlike most of the other Resident Evil 6 protagonists, Helena hasn't had much experience battling B.O.W.s. Trying to get to grips with the nightmarish situation she's found herself in, she ropes in Leon S. Kennedy to help her save her sister, Deborah Harper.

    Chris Redfield

    No Caption Provided

    Chris still with the B.S.A.A. works alongside B.S.A.A. marksman Piers Nivans amidst their excursion in China to uncover the plot revolving around the latest strand of B.O.W. virus, the C-Virus.

    Piers Nivans

    No Caption Provided

    A BSAA sniper, Piers is an up and coming soldier within the unit who has been serving with Chris for a long while. As the very man who manages to bring Chris back into the B.S.A.A, after suffering Post-Traumatic Amnesia, Piers will try his best to both battle the J'avo and save Chris from his own downfall.

    Jake Muller

    No Caption Provided

    An all new character, Jake Muller is the third protagonist of Resident Evil 6, who is directly related to previous series antagonist Albert Wesker.

    Sherry Birkin

    No Caption Provided

    The daughter of deceased Umbrella scientists, William Birkin and Annette Birkin, Sherry finally returns into the fold with Resident Evil 6 working alongside Jake Muller.

    Ada Wong

    No Caption Provided

    The mysterious and often illusive Ada Wong also makes her timely return. Attempting to capture Jake Muller because of his natural immunity to reanimation viruses, Ada will come into conflict with both Chris Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy as her true motives are finally revealed.

    Derek C. Simmons

    No Caption Provided

    Presidential aide and friend to Adam Benford, Derek is soon revealed to be the culprit behind the Tall Oaks C-Virus outbreak and as such the death of the President. Strongly believing in his own vision of 'World stability', Derek's methods for sculpting the world as he sees fit is often at the expense of innocent human life.

    Plot

    TBC

    Weapons

    Survival/Combat Knife

    No Caption Provided

    Exclusive to only Chris Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy, they're both equipped with a knife from the outset as a reference to their experience across the franchise. Leon's is the Survival Knife whereas Chris is given the Combat, though besides some cosmetic differences they mostly function the same. The name difference is implied to signify the style and tone of both character's respective campaign they're both assigned to, with Leon's slower-paced more horror-oriented atmosphere, and Chris' much more action-focussed military aesthetic.

    The Knives are slow and not exceptionally powerful, though when used with the Quick Draw ability, the character will do a quick few swipes. Executions on downed enemies are also more powerful with the knife equipped.

    Stun Rod

    No Caption Provided

    Sherry Birkin's own exclusive melee weapon, the Stun Rod can do minor electrical damage to her foes, and can also be charged up to discharge a significantly more powerful current - one that can even spread across multiple enemies.

    Hand-to-Hand

    No Caption Provided

    Jake Muller, while can still do regular melee attacks, also has available his own additional set of melee attacks tied to his 'Hand-to-Hand' weapon. Using the regular attack buttons, Jake can perform a few simple combos, including a flurry of acrobatic attacks should the player continually use the Quick Draw ability. Jake can also ready himself for a running lunge attack not unlike that of Albert Wesker by holding down R2/RT; from there players can select their target and then 'fire' to have Jake rush forward and perform a forward strike.

    Using Hand-to-Hand will still deplete the player's stamina gauge.

    Wing Shooter

    No Caption Provided

    A semi-automatic pistol and one that is exclusive to Leon S. Kennedy, the Wing Shooter has an alternate firing mode where Leon will equip another and duel-wield the two for more damage output, but less accuracy.

    Picador

    No Caption Provided

    Helena Harper's own semi-automatic pistol. It is slightly more powerful than the others but has no alternate firing mode. While Helena is the only playable character across the story to have it available, in The Mercenaries mode Carla Radames also has it as apart of her inventory and is shown with it equipped during the flashback in Edonia during Chris Redfield's campaign.

    Nine-Oh-Nine

    No Caption Provided

    Standard military sidearm whom both Jake Muller and Chris Redfield have available, the Nine-Oh-Nine is the weakest of all the handguns and has no alternate fire.

    Triple Shot

    No Caption Provided

    This is Sherry Birkin's exclusive pistol and like the name applies can fire in bursts of three. Though there is also an alternate single-shot mode where it'll fire like a regular pistol instead.

    Shotgun

    No Caption Provided

    Standard pump-action shotgun available across both Leon's and Jake's campaigns.

    Hydra

    No Caption Provided

    Returning from Resident Evil 5 is the Hydra sawn-off shotgun. However, this time around it is only available for Helena and is made available from the outset. Loaded with up to three shots, the Hydra is able to unload all three of its shells as fast as the player can press the firing button. When used with Quick Shot, Helena perform a number of unique stunt-roll animations per shot; after all three shots, Helena will then immediately reload the shotgun as she gets back up.

    Assault Shotgun

    No Caption Provided

    Similar in power to the regular Shotgun, the Assault Shotgun is semi-auto and can hold more rounds. This variety of shotgun is available across Chris Redfield and Ada Wong's campaigns.

    Ruger SMG

    No Caption Provided

    For Ada's hands only, the Ruger SMG is shot from the hip and has a high fire-rate, though little damage output.

    MP-AF

    No Caption Provided

    Starting SMG for Piers Nivans, the MP-AF is highly accurate but deals little overall damage. It has two firing modes available: full auto and single-shot.

    Assault Rifle for Special Tactics

    No Caption Provided

    Chris Redfield's starting assault rifle and his primary weapon. Accurate and rather powerful, though its reload animation is slightly longer than the other assault rifles in the game.

    Its name is a reference to Chris' history as a STARS member -- Special Tactics and Rescue Service.

    Bear Commander

    No Caption Provided

    Available across Jake Muller and Ada Wong's campaign, the Bear Commander is the most powerful assault rifle in the game, though to compensate has the worst accuracy. It also comes equipped with a grenade launcher attachment.

    Assault Rifle RN

    No Caption Provided

    Found exclusively in Leon's campaign, the Assault Rifle RN resides within a middle ground, with its modest power and accuracy. Though what really sets it apart is the added bayonet, which when equipped will allow the player to use it for any melee attacks and finishers.

    Lightning Hawk

    No Caption Provided

    Also returning from Resident Evil 5, the Lightning Hawk continues on with its specific blend of power and recoil resistance. This weapon is only found in Leon's campaign.

    Elephant Killer

    No Caption Provided

    Resident Evil 6's own revolver-magnum, the Elephant Killer is the most powerful weapon in the game minus the RPG. Its recoil is strong, though its power is so great it can often shoot through up to three enemies at once.

    Sniper Rifle

    No Caption Provided

    A standard bolt-action sniper rifle, this weapon is only found in Jake and Ada's campaigns.

    Semi-Auto Rifle

    No Caption Provided

    Found in Leon and Chris' campaigns, the Semi-Auto Rifle has a much faster firing rate and quick reload, though it lacks in power to its sniper rifle brethren.

    Anti-Materiel Rifle

    No Caption Provided

    Piers' sniper rifle exclusive only to him, the Anti-Material Rifle is the third most powerful gun in the game behind the Elephant Killer and RPG. Because of its power, it has a hard kickback and requires that every bullet must be loaded between shots.

    Grenade Launcher

    No Caption Provided

    Found only in Chris' campaign, and as is custom with the series the Grenade Launcher can equip multiple types of grenades. There are regular grenade rounds, acid rounds, and freeze rounds. The grenade rounds deal heavy explosive damage with plenty of splash damage to go with it; acid will continually do damage over time; and freeze rounds will instantly freeze all common enemies - from that point on the player only needs shoot once, or use a melee attack, to shatter the frozen enemy.

    Crossbow

    No Caption Provided

    Another weapon only for Ada, the Crossbow has two different types of arrows: regular and explosive. Regular arrows generally do little damage, but will always kill a regular enemy instantly when shot to the head. Explosive will stick to an enemy and then quickly proceed to tick down. Once it explodes the damage dealt is about on par with the Grenade Launcher.

    RPG

    No Caption Provided

    Only found and used in Leon's campaign for the sole purpose of finishing off the mutated Derek C. Simmons, the RPG can only be attained and kept in the player's inventory if they let their cooperative partner shoot Simmons instead. Once it's unlocked, the purchasable Skill to get infinite RPG ammo is also made available.

    Hand Grenade

    No Caption Provided

    Found only in Chris and Ada's campaigns, the hand grenade is an exceptionally powerful tool that can disperse and destroy small crowds with ease.

    Incendiary Grenade

    No Caption Provided

    Found in Leon and Ada's campaigns, the incendiary doesn't do as much initial damage as hand grenades but still continually burns through enemies after so many seconds. Using an incendiary grenade is also the only way to truly kill a Rasklapanje.

    Flash Grenade

    No Caption Provided

    While it deals no damage, flash grenades will briefly stun enemies allowing players to perform context-sensitive melee moves. Unlike the Las Plagas from RE4 and RE5, flash grenades will no longer instantly kill a mutated enemy.

    Remote Bomb

    No Caption Provided

    About as powerful as a hand grenade, Remote Bombs have an added perk in the ability for players to choose when it will explode, introducing the possibility to set a trap.

    Enemies

    Zombie

    No Caption Provided

    Resident Evil 6 sees the return of the classic slow, shambling zombies that hounded the heroes of the series up until Resident Evil 4. This particular iteration of the zombie is much more advanced over the usual zombies from the past, however. They're much faster, agile, and can even leap a small distance through the air to attempt to grab the player by surprise.

    Their main source of attack is to grab and start biting the player, requiring the player to wiggle the stick to escape without any partner character assistance. Sometimes if a zombie is weak enough there'll be a two-part QTE; the first involves wiggling the stick, and the second involves a timed button press which will result in the player character killing the zombie. During the first phase the player will continually take damage, though no such damage is inflicted during the second.

    Zombies will also sometimes spit acid at the player. While the damage is minimal, it will force the player to have to wait through a prolonged animation before they regain control.

    Furthermore, these zombies are occasionally seen to wield melee weapons--which they groggily attempt to attack the player with--such as pipes, axes, bottles, and can also even use firearms -- specifically the Assault Rifle for Special Tactics and the Elephant Killer. Though much like their effectiveness with melee weapons, zombies have poor accuracy and tend to lamely fire aimlessly until they run out of ammo and then throw the gun at the player. While zombies are still generally sluggish in movement, this iteration of the undead has the capacity to climb ladders.

    There are a few zombie variations throughout the game. Beyond the regular civilian zombies, there are firefighters that have their extinguishers still residing on their back. Shooting it will create a small explosion that'll kill the zombie and at least do damage to any nearby zombies. BSAA zombies will also be encountered, which due to their body armor are immune to regular gunfire in all but their head. Finally there are the more rotten, decayed zombies of the catacombs, which can sometimes be found wearing armor on their torso and head. This'll then make them immune to most forms of gunfire. Some catacomb zombies can also be found strapped with dynamite around them, which when shot will of course result in a small explosion, potentially damaging if not killing any other nearby zombies.

    Zombies are primarily encountered across all of Leon S. Kennedy's campaign, though they do still make an occasional appearance during portions of Ada Wong's as well.

    Bloodshot

    No Caption Provided

    Certain zombies will have a noticeably red skin-pigment, and should they suffer a headshot there's a high chance they will then begin to mutate into a Bloodshot. Sort of resembling the Crimson Head zombies from the Resident Evil remake, Bloodshots are significantly more durable than regular zombies and will often attempt to leap at the player and bite them, doing a sizeable amount of damage. Their one weak spot is their heart, which sporadically reveals itself beneath the hard-casing that has formed around it. Melee attacks aren't as effective as against regular zombies, however, though continuous firearm fire is still a viable solution for taking down a Bloodshot. Countering their leap attack will also deal a significant amount of damage.

    Because these are an advanced mutation of zombies, Bloodshots are also only encountered across Leon and Ada's campaigns.

    Zombie Dog

    No Caption Provided

    Alongside zombie humans, zombified canines also return to the rogues gallery. Like previous iterations, zombie dogs are extremely fast and tenacious. They will routinely stay on the move in an attempt to avoid gunfire, though they don't require many bullets to kill. If they're close enough to the player character the player can do a prompted stomp attack, which'll deal minor damage.

    Their main source of attack is leaping at the player and munching on their neck, dealing a considerable amount of damage over time. To escape players must waggle the analogues stick, if not be saved by their partner character.

    Whopper

    No Caption Provided

    Huge, morbidly obese zombies. While whoppers somewhat resemble the infamous Boomer from the Left 4 Dead series, Whoppers are in actual fact extremely resistant to most forms of damage. They typically attack by stampeding forward, knocking over anything that's in their way -- including other enemies. They will also usually attempt to grab the player character and feast on their torso, requiring the player to rapidly wiggle the analogue stick to escape its grasp.

    Simply shooting at it will eventually do the trick, though their legs are weak enough that after withstanding enough damage the Whopper will then fall to its knees. From there the player can perform a powerful melee attack.

    Shrieker

    No Caption Provided

    Shrieker's are another rare breed of zombie. They are found to be cowardly and will often run away from the player, that is unless their lungs are shown to be bloated and vividly red. That'll then signify they're ready to use their distinctly loud, wailing shriek. Should the player be caught in it they will be temporarily stunned by the noise while taking some damage at that, though the shriek will also pop any nearby zombie's heads at that.

    Its weak point are its lungs once they're in their bloated state, though whence they've been destroyed the Shrieker will make one last shriek before succumbing to death, which'll result in the same stunned state and accompanying damage if the player is caught within the vicinity.

    J'avo

    No Caption Provided

    These multi-eyed monsters are the newest version of heavily mutated common enemies, such as the Ganados from Resident Evil 4 and the Majini in Resident Evil 5, that weren't simply mindless zombies but rather mutations that would grow and change. However, the J'avo from the very beginning are able to utilise a variety of firearms and grenades.

    They are most commonly equipped with Ruger SMGs or machetes. Though despite advanced capabilities over zombies, they are still commonly found to offer little resistance to player advances. They will still fire their weapons and take cover when necessary, it's their overall numbers that define the challenge.

    Certain J'avo will also be encountered while equipped with LMGs, RPGs, or sniper rifles. The LMG J'avo are more aggressive and continued fire from their weapon will quickly force the player character to topple over onto the ground. RPG J'avo are as one would expect and will deal a high amount of damage if they can hit their mark. Because they have no laser-sight for their weapon this can thusly make it difficult to pinpoint their location at that. J'avo with Sniper Rifles are equally as damaging and a single shot from one will knock the player over, though unlike the RPG J'avo their sniper rifles are fitted with a laser-sight to help notify the player of their position.

    The J'avo are faced across chapters set in Edonia, China, and Neo-Umbrella's underwater base, however the differences between the three are purely cosmetic. They are also fought across all campaigns besides Leon's.

    J'avo Mutations

    No Caption Provided

    Like the Ganado and Majini before them, J'avo have a high chance to mutate whence enough damage has been sustained. However the variety of mutations is far greater and is dependant on which part of the J'avo's body is damaged. J'avo can sometimes undergo two mutations at that before finally dying.

    When going through the mutation the J'avo temporarily gains an exceptional increase in defense, and even then their overall defensive properties will have increased when the mutation has finished. Furthermore, contrary to Ganado/Majini mutations, their mutated body part will be much more resistant to damage than the rest of their body.

    Glava-Sluz

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to head damage. The Glava-Sluz will spit out a sticky mucus substance that, while it won't deal any damage, will temporarily trap the player to the spot leaving them incredibly vulnerable. To escape players must wiggle the analogue stick.

    Glava-Smech

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to head damage. While it is triggered by damage to the head, this mutation involves the entire upper torso of the J'avo mutating into what looks like two pincers. From there it will attempt to rush with it's new 'head' and grab the player thattaway, doing considerable damage. If enough damage is dealt to its glowing torso region then there's a chance the J'avo may then explode, dealing damage to any nearby enemies.

    Glava-Dim

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to head damage. For this mutation the J'avo will now prefer to avoid combat and attack from afar. Its new series of wasp-like heads will spew a red mist that will slowly deal damage to the player should they be within it, and will also make it difficult to see at that.

    Glava-Begunats

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to head damage. Strangely enough this mutation doesn't give the J'avo any additional attacks of sorts, and instead incites it to go into a frenzied state as it rapidly swings its weapon--whether it had equipped a machete or an SMG--around.

    Telo-Eksplozija

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to torso damage. This mutation now turns the J'avo into a suicide-bomber of sorts. It has no form of attack available, but when close enough it will then kneel down in its attempt to explode nearby the player. It can otherwise undergo its explosion prematurely if the player deals enough damage, particularly to its legs. Its explosion will deal damage to any nearby enemies, and can potentially cause a chain reaction of Telo-Eksplozija J'avo if more are close.

    Telo-Krljusht

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to torso damage. This mutation focuses purely on defense as it encases the J'avo's torso with scales that make it immune to gunfire. Though explosions and melee attacks can still deal damage.

    Telo-Krljusht

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to torso damage. With this the J'avo will be forced to stay stuck to the ground, completely immobile. Though it will emit a poisonous gas within the vicinity so long as it's alive.

    Ruka-Khvatanje

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to arm damage. The most common mutation, this one will gift the J'avo a long, stretchy arm akin to a Bandersnatcher enemy from Code: Veronica. Not only will it allow the J'avo a far-reaching melee attack, but it also gives it the ability to pull the player character from afar and pull them to it -- even if the player is currently hiding behind cover. Should this mutation be paired with the Glava-Smech, when it pulls the player towards it it will be to grasp the player with its pincers to bite rather than merely slamming them to the ground.

    Ruka-Srp

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to arm damage. This mutation turns the J'avo's arm into something resembling a scythe, which they can then use to attack in swiping motions when the player is close enough.

    Ruka-Bedem

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to arm damage. With this the J'avo turns its arm into a sort of shield, used for both defense and offense. The shield is indestructible, though enough damage will at least eventually knock the J'avo off balance allowing the player to perform a melee attack. Its most common attack is to charge at the player with its shield up, though it will always charge in a straight line, allowing the player to potentially move out of its way and attack its rear.

    Noga-Trchanje

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to leg damage. Through this mutation the J'avo's entire lower half now resembles an arachnid, though it only has six legs as opposed to eight. Nonetheless, its new-found mobility allows the J'avo to skitter up and along walls and ceilings. The J'avo will still primarily use its firearm, though it will also attempt to quickly leap at the player, though the damage it inflicts is minimal. If it is close enough the player will be given a prompt to stomp on the J'avo, dealing some light damage.

    Noga-Let

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to leg damage. This mutation also gifts the J'avo an increase in mobility, only now it has the capacity to fly. This is its only major benefit, however, as it attack only with a Ruger SMG.

    Noga-Skakanje

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to leg damage. The J'avo with this has access to a new pair of giant legs resembling a grasshopper of sorts. It can now run much faster and jump exceptionally high, though it will primarily use its Ruger SMG to attack. If close enough, however, it will attempt to kick the player.

    Noga-Oklop

    No Caption Provided

    A mutation related to leg damage. This mutation now gives the J'avo significantly increased attack power its legs. It will still use its firearm, but will now also sometimes charge in and do a number of powerful mid-air kicks.

    Chrysalid Mutations

    Even after mutating, there's a chance a J'avo may mutate even further. They will first begin to burn up and become encased in a giant chrysalid, before a new form of monster then 'hatches' from within. Chrysalids can be destroyed, however it can take significantly more punishment than what the creature that bursts out of it would require to destroy.

    Strelats

    No Caption Provided

    A very fast and mobile monster that resembles a lizard of sorts. It can very quickly scurry throughout the area, often rushing past the player to knock them aside a little--the player will receive no damage during this action, though--and can crawl up and around walls. Its main source of attack is to shoot a swath of needles from its chest, which if one hits the player will knock them over to the ground. It also sometimes spew a sort of acidic liquid should players be close enough, which can potentially keep a player stunlocked without assistance from their partner character.

    Strelats weakness is against melee attacks. Should one be stunned, either by gunfire of a flashbang, the player can enact a QTE that involves three button prompts, each of which will show the character kicking the creature's torso before then doing a roundhouse kick against it. The roundhouse kick will always end the combo, even should a player fail the QTE.

    Napad

    No Caption Provided

    A large, hulking creature that moves and attacks akin to a gorilla. They are encased in a tough shell, though it can be broken apart after enough punishment. From there its fleshy muscles will be revealed, which are more susceptible to damage. It also has a notary weak-point on its back.

    While Napads are slow in movement, its primary attack involves it charging towards the player in its attempt to ram the player over; it'll start beating its chest to signify when it's ready to charge. Players can attempt to get out of the way, though there's also a QTE prompt that'll show up for the player to jump over the beast before it hits.

    Beyond charging, it'll attempt to to punch the character when close enough. Napads can potentially explode should be they killed with an explosive weapon, though if they're killed with melee attacks or firearm fire it will wildly swing its arms around as a final attack before it succumbs to death.

    Mesets

    No Caption Provided

    A monster that resembles a large, black bird. Mesets will fly around the area, before its latches its claws onto the player character and pulls them up into the air. The player must then wiggle the stick to escape, if not rely on their partner character to shoot the creature to release the player character.

    Gnezdo

    No Caption Provided

    Arguably the most dangerous Chrysalid mutation. Gnezdo primarily consists of a female humanoid shape, made up of hundreds of what look like bees. Shooting the figure enough will then force the queen bee to temporarily reveal itself -- killing the queen will then finally end the creature for good.

    It only has one attack, where it envelops the player character and rapidly deals damage. The player must wiggle the stick to escape, however the continuous damage can be so severe that it can prove to be physically impossible to escape before death.

    Lepotitsa Part I

    Unlockables

    Mercenaries

    Returning once more is the popular Mercenaries minigame, which is pretty much an exact replica of the Resident Evil 5 iteration, and is unlocked by completing the Prelude. Starting with 2 minutes, players are to kill as many enemies as possible within the time limit. Where RE6's Mercenaries differ is the addition of an enemy counter, which shows how many enemies out of a set amount of spawns on the map the player has killed. The more enemies the player kills, the more aggressive the enemies get, and will also begin spawning sub-bosses as well.

    Players can extend their overall time by finding and destroying Time Bonuses throughout the map, and any enemies that are killed via a melee attack will grant the player an additional few seconds. Mercenaries can be played cooperatively for up to 2 players in both local split-screen and online.

    By default there are only three characters available and one map. More characters are unlocked by attaining a B rank on each map, and two more maps are unlocked by completing both Chris and Jake's campaigns - one per campaign. Alternate costumes are also available, and are unlocked per character by attaining an A rank with the character itself. Much like in RE5, each of the character's alternate costumes will have a different set of weapons and supplies.

    Like the main campaign, skills are available for players to purchase with in-game points and equip, though only one Skill may be equipped at a time. These Skills are also completely separate from the ones in the main game, and the player's point currency is unique to Mercenaries and doesn't carry over, nor can it be imported, from the main game. Instead players must collect Skills points from defeated enemies in the Mercenaries mode itself.

    Development

    Resident Evil 6 had been stirring within the public's mind for a while. Rumors and small tidbits referencing the game's development began circulating during E3 2011, when a logo for Resident Evil 6 was posted, along with the date to the same year's TGS show. Nothing Resident Evil-related occurred during the TGS show, however a trailer was released on September 16th, implying that Resident Evil 6 was to be set in Canada. The trailer was soon shot down by Capcom as a fake. The next batch of rumors began pointing towards China, after a voice actress' resume was found to state she would be portraying a ''Chinese zombie'' for Resident Evil 6.

    No Caption Provided

    In a similar move during Resident Evil 5's marketing, Capcom began a purposely shoddy looking viral campaign called NoHopeLeft.com, which sprinkled random blogs and notes much like for some sort of conspirators website, detailing how the entire world is under siege. Only one day before the début trailer, the site posted a movie of a greatly distressed Chinese woman making a vlog for a loved one, under the guise of a civilian currently in the midst of whatever catastrophe is going on. It cuts out as she is seemingly attacked by something. Soon afterwards, another video is posted just with the date and time of ''01.19.12 14:00 PST''. Without fail, the site then posted a link to the début Resident Evil 6 trailer at 2pm Pacific the next day with the words ''This explains a lot!!!!''.

    Continuing the viral campaign, on February 21st the nohopeleft website was ''seized and put under investigation'', with a logo not seen before within the series at the bottom of the page linking a downloadable audio file titled ''praying audio''. Much like the title implies, it plays a short 14 second clip of a young Chinese woman (possibly the same one from the vlog) praying in her native language.

    While originally slated for a 11/20/12 release, come the Captivate trailer in April, the date was pushed forward to 10/02/12. Despite only being announced early 2012, Capcom stated that development for Resident Evil 6 had been going on since 2010. It was also stated to be the ''largest'' Resident Evil game to date, and the Capcomteam working on it was the biggest one they had working on a single game --approximately 600 people. For comparison's sake, roughly around 120 people worked on Resident Evil 5. Capcom said that with Resident Evil 6, they want to combine the series strongest elements of horror and action; executive producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi coined the term ''dramatic horror'' to best summarise their ambitions, in an attempt to replicate Mikami's original fame for creating the Survival Horror moniker. The popular military-shooter series Call of Duty was recurrently bought up as influential--notably regarding its sales--in how Capcom decided to steer forward the next instalment of the Resident Evil series.

    E3 2012

    At the Electronic Entertainment Expo's Microsoft Conference, Hiroyuki Kobayashi and Eiichiro Sasaki took to the stage to unveil their first trailer showing off unedited gameplay, focussing on Leon's story, for Resident Evil 6.

    Only minutes after the Microsoft Conference was over, Capcom uploaded another cinematic trailer surrounding the plot of the game. On the show floor, multiple streams showing off small segments of Leon's, Chris' and Jake's stories were shown as well, along with further explanation for the gameplay debut of 4-player boss battles.

    SDCC 2012

    After the overall poor reception of the 360 demo released on July 3rd--most notably regarding the camera and screen-tearing--Capcom quickly saw fit to showcase a more updated edition of Resident Evil 6, including a much more manageable camera with the character model not taking up so much of the screen, and improved technical aspects. Capcom also used this opportunity to introduce more segments for each of the campaigns, as well as upload another edited story trailer.

    Street Date Broken

    On August 31st, more than a month before Resident Evil 6's officially scheduled release, a few copies of the full game--PS3 version--were made available for retail sale in the Polish City of Poznań. Capcom quickly reported that such copies were in fact 'stolen'.

    Logo Controversy

    No Caption Provided

    The purposely abstract Number ''6'' logo for Resident Evil 6 went under some scrutiny shortly after it was revealed within the début trailer for its appearance - which has been said to resemble a giraffe, whilst wearing a boot, receiving fellatio from a woman. It sparked a lot of talk on many forums across the internet (most notably 4chan) and was subjected to parody and even drawings to better illustrate the ''hidden image'' within the number 6 logo.

    While Capcom didn't go as far as to acknowledge the fellatio comparison, they were open to admitting and making fun of the similarities the logo shares with a giraffe via a Facebook update.

    Dragon's Dogma tie-in

    To coincide with Capcom's other equally invested IP, Dragon's Dogma, Capcom slotted in a code to unlock a demo for Resident Evil 6 for players who buy new copies of Dragon's Dogma. However, there is a large interval regarding the activation dates between the 360 and PS3 versions because of Microsoft paying for temporary exclusivity; the 360 demo is available to download on July 3rd, whereas for the PS3 it's September 5th. A public demo was then released for all on September 18th for the PS3 and 360 Gold Members (Silver members had to wait until September 25th) which contained different sections of gameplay than in the first demo for each of the three campaigns.

    Capcom have stated that their reasoning for separating the demo activation dates as a ''strategic business decision''. Head of the UK branch David Turner also further elaborated by saying that, ''The dream would be that the millions of Call of Duty fans that are enjoying these fast-paced online games are attracted to this Resident Evil'', implying that they're pushing for the 360 because of its larger player base surrounding Call of Duty.

    July 3rd/September 5th Demo

    At under 1GB, the Resident Evil 6 demo included a small excerpt from each of the three campaigns, Leon, Chris, and Jake--which were originally shown on the stage-floor of 2012's E3 expo.

    Leon's was situated during the beginning, after he is forced to kill the zombified President Adam Benford. Along with Helena, they make their way through the Tall Oaks University, before bumping into a lost father and daughter who are both infected with the C-Virus, and are eventually forced to defend themselves against an onslaught of zombies.

    Chris Redfield's begins around the time he and Piers Nivans reunite after their mission in Europe 6 months prior. Then, skipping to their mission during China, the two fight across the rooftops of Langshiang against a small band of J'avo resistance. Jake Muller's demo gives players the taste of one of Resident Evil 6's boss battles as he along with Sherry do battle with B.O.W. Ustanak programmed by Neo-Umbrella to hunt down Jake Muller -- not unlike how The Nemesis stalked Jill Valentine during Resident Evil 3.

    All three of the campaigns can be played solo or online with another player, though not in splitscreen. Should players die they must restart the demo level over - there are no checkpoints.

    September 18th Public Demo

    Sized at 847MB and available for all on both PS3 and 360, Resident Evil 6's second demo gave another taste of each of the three main campaigns. Alongside that, the demo featured a better optimised camera and smoother technical properties.

    Left 4 Dead 2 Crossover

    No Caption Provided

    In partnership with Valve, Capcom have included additional exclusive L4D2-themed content for Resident Evil 6's PC version free of charge. The four main characters of L4D2--Coach, Ellis, Nick, and Rochelle--are available as playable characters in the Mercenaries Mode with their own inventory loadouts. Some of the special mutated infected, such as The Witch and The Tank, also appear in the mode as additional mini-bosses.

    Furthermore, many of Resident Evil 6's J'avo and its own special zombie enemies will also appear in Left 4 Dead 2 as well for free.

    Patch Updates

    After Resident Evil 6 underwent waves of criticism by both fans and critics, Capcom saw fit to release numerable patches to attempt to 'fix' certain commonplace issues, while also opening up a lot of content that was initially required to be unlocked. Such alterations included thus far have been:

    • A much wider Field of View.
    • An option to make QTE's much easier to deal with.
    • Numerous tweaks and balances to the overall difficulty.
    • The option to now select between lesser chapters within the main five chapters for each campaign.
    • Making Ada Wong's campaign playable from the outset.
    • The option to play Ada Wong's campaign in cooperative play; though it can still be played solo just as Ada, with no permanent AI partner.
    • Making Agent Hunt mode to be playable from the outset.

    Special Editions

    Anthology/Archive Collection

    No Caption Provided

    Scheduled for release on the same day as the default Resident Evil 6 game are the Anthology and Archive collections - a compilation of the main Resident Evil games for the PS3 & 360 respectively. The name difference signifies more than just console difference, however, as each one features a different selection of games:

    Anthology (PS3):

    Archives (360):

    Collector's Edition

    Exclusive to European regions, the Collector's Edition is fitted with the usual set of additions alongside the main game - all of which are packed within a needle-bomb themed box:

    • Resident Evil 6 video game
    • Zombie-themed steelbook
    • Hardback artbook
    • DLC codes for an avatar if it's the 360 version or a dynamic theme if the PS3
    • Three Emblem insignias featuring signatures from RE6 developers Hiroyuki Kobayashi, Yoshiaki Hirabayashi and Eiichiro Sasaki
    • Tall Oaks Ivy University sweatshirt

    Premium Edition

    No Caption Provided

    Exclusive only to Japan is the Premium Edition, which includes the full RE6 game along with four tablet covers and an exact replica of Leon S. Kennedy's jacket during the part in Tall Oaks. Because of the high price of 105,000 yen, otherwise roughly conversed as 1,300$, the reaction was tepid at best. Capcom's official US blog, Capcom Unity, held a poll asking their International audience whether they wanted the edition to be made available over in the States. Rounded to a basis of 100, the poll shown that only 20/100 votes were in favor of purchasing the edition should it be made available.
