Kind of reminds me of that other giant human swallowing snake from the first Resident Evil...
Complete with 3 campaigns, each about as big as Resident Evil 5's campaign, Resident Evil 6 will have a plethora of settings and environments to explore.
Leon S. Kennedy alongside Helena Harper explore the dark confines of the Ivy University campus and the zombies that fill its hallways, Chris Redfield heads to Lianshiang, China for an intense encounter on the rooftops, and take to the war-torn Eastern European state of Edonia and with Jake Muller and Sherry Berkin trying to escape a relentless pursuit of a new B.O.W.
As seen in the trailers, Resident Evil 6 uses the same over the shoulder view utilized in 4 and 5. But 6 brings a new mechanic that allows players to move while shooting, among other features, including a new cover system, dodging, enemy counters, and a drop-in/drop-out co-op system.
Enemies will drop skill points which you can use to purchase skills to customize your character to make them more unique. Skill examples include increasing your firearm power, or your durability. Puzzles will make a return, including "a few tricky ones," and will be more like the first three Resident Evil games where you have to explore a bit before you are able to solve them.
Zombies return as the main enemy, doing away with the plaga parasite. Capcom has assembled its biggest team yet with over 600 people coming together to make this game.
Resident Evil 6 is due out early this October 2 for PS3 and Xbox 360.
