Resident Evil 6 Is Official

The newest core entry in Capcom's popular survival series Resident Evil is Resident Evil 6. The game was revealed at today's Tokyo Game Show.

^^What the hell is wrong with people like you? Seriously?

Biohazard 6 on PS Vita!
now were talking! Whatever happened to Biohazard Portable?

zeeshan5357d ago (Edited 5357d ago )

After Re5 came out, I remember that there was this news of RE6. That it would take them like 8 years to make it. Well, I guess it was all a bunch of BS. I hope they go back to their RE2 roots. And please, no co op.

Kurt Russell5357d ago

Although Res 5 was the worst I've played in the series, I still really enjoyed it - especially the co-op.

Eamon5357d ago

Firstly, LESS FOCUS ON TPS AND MORE ON HORROR.

Secondly, no focus on co-op or multiplayer. Put all resources into a pure scary and thrilling Resident Evil experience with horror levels similar to RE1 and RE2. I don't mind if it continues with RE4's third person perspective but it needs the RE1&2 style horror.

Thirdly, Please no Chris Redfield. I've gotten tired of his appearance everywhere. What happened to Leon? Please bring him back as the protagonist.

Fourthly, bring back the puzzles and exploration of RE1 and RE2 where just the thought of having to explore the research labs for ingredients in RE1 put chills down our spines or having to find that girl in RE2 fearing some crazed lizard man would suddenly appear and chop our heads off would make us shit ourselves.

Lastly, no goofy story.

alien6265357d ago

they should make a new Outbreak i miss that series :(

rjdofu5357d ago

From the site:

"UPDATE - Despite early morning confirmations from a representative from Capcom Japan that the trailer posted above was being shown in the company's closed theatre at the Tokyo Game Show, sources have since told us that this trailer is not real."

So people don't have to waste their time clicking on that site anymore.

sobekflakmonkey5357d ago

I dont mind Co-op and multi-player, that is when its completely separate from the main story, like if they made the main single player story its own single thing, with actual puzzle solving and all the good stuff from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd RE games and then threw in a co-operative mode for online where you play with 3 friends that had nothing to do really with the original story but was a story of its own (kinda like RE:O), I would be happy, and bring back mercenaries obviously, that would be the best RE game EVERR.

But that being said im still excited for Operation Raccoon city, shooting zombies is always fun, especially with your friends :)

1. Go back to RE1,2,3 camera angles.

2. Limit the ammunition drastically.

3. No co-op.

4. Bring back creepy piano music from old RE games

5. Create a "fear system". Depending on how a situation is approached, your character will be more scared or less scared. If the character gets too scared, it could paralyze him/her...he/she can even die of fright.

This could affect gameplay by making your character shake uncontrollably...throwing off your aim. You'd have to go into a safe room and read a nudie mag to calm down or something lol.

BlindGuardian5358d ago

I'm not sure about the camera angles

LOGICWINS5358d ago (Edited 5358d ago )

The old RE camera angles could be game breaking if it stops you from seeing an approaching zombie, but if done right it could make the game scarier.

Lets say hypothetically speaking that RE6 is primarily a stealth game. Most of the world is controlled by Nemesises and you are one of the few humans on earth that illegally live outside of Umbrellas containment camps.

To get to point A to B, you need to stealthly evade Nemesises. It would be cool if the camera opened up wide enough so the player could see a Nemesis on a rooftop but you could also see your character trying to get through the guarded area at the same time.

If you make the slightest noise, you alert the Nemesis, he spots you and he kills you in a different gruesome way everytime. Sometimes you get killed slow and sometimes you get killed fast....it depends on the enemy.

RE6 NEEDS to give the player a sense of hopelessness and bring about the reality that the odds are against you. It should be made so that its IMPOSSIBLE to kill all the enemies in the game.

J-Killer155358d ago

Yeah I agree with BlindGuardian. If having a bad camera angle is needed to make the game scarier then something isn't right. If Capcom can somehow make a game that resembles the "Hook-Man" version of RE4 then maybe we'll finally have a good RE after 6 years.

pipipi5358d ago (Edited 5358d ago )

man thats an awesome list, but i think RE6 will be better than RE5 because that stupid JUN TAKEUCHI is not involved in the project wooohooo
i hope seriously NO CO-OP!! but the camera angles... well maybe sometimes, i prefer a SILENT HILL 3 camera type which is the same as SH2 LOL, i bet it will be release fall 2013 or early 2014, long long wait, but meanwhile we can sing:

Dovahkiin Dovahkiin
Naal ok zin los vahriin
Wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal

BTW RESIDENT EVIL 4 WAS THE SHIT!!!!!!! bring back the wolves and a verdugo esque creature!!!

SOD_Delta5358d ago (Edited 5358d ago )

The thing about being scared is that of all the RE vet characters are experienced at fighting Zombies/B.O.W's. I mean it would be silly for them to start being scared of the things they have been fighting for years.

The only way it would make sense is if they brought in new characters and I don't see that happening. It is a good idea for a spin-off though.

GunofthePatriots5358d ago

fear system sounds interesting but you lost me at "dies of fear".

LOGICWINS5358d ago (Edited 5358d ago )

"The only way it would make sense is if they brought in new characters and I don't see that happening."

EXACTLY. That should be the plan for RE6..whats scarier than being an average person in a desperate situation that requires extraordinary talents?

Most of the game will be a frightening/satisfying journey to a certain locale. THEN, you meet up with Barry, Chris, Claire etc. and then you all work together to blow up the last traces of the virus or something.

Or, even better, you meet with Barry and Chris early on in the game and they teach you how to fight. Throughout the game you slowly build up your skills.

SOD_Delta5358d ago (Edited 5358d ago )

@ #1.2.7 LOGICWINS That's not a bad idea. We'll just have to wait and see. I personally hope co-op comes back. I mean its defiantly possible to make a "Scary" Co-op game.

"Or, even better, you meet with Barry and Chris early on in the game and they teach you how to fight. Throughout the game you slowly build up your skills."

Are you still talking about RE6? Sounds like a Apocalyptic RPG?.... Which would be sweet. I've always wanted a game like that. Something between L4D and Fallout.

Kos-Mos5358d ago

Yes, it`s lovely not being in control of your character. Where`s your logic?

Disccordia5358d ago

You know the reason why capcom made all those changes for re4 was because everyone at the time said the formula was getting boring. Have you tried to play mgs and mgs2 recently? Static cameras would really be a step backwards!

Gamer19825358d ago

Nah going back to old game styles doesn't work games have evolved now and going back to old styles hurts games development as much as we liked the old games they were great because of nostalgia now do you really want that ruining? They can do it like RE5 just make it more scarier simple as. As for limited ammo even RE2 and 3 had unlimited ammo.

DigitalAnalog5357d ago

Here's the thing about those "camera" angles: Shinji stated that the technology was not capable to control the camera (with his vision) at that time. However, being the genius that he is - took a disadvantage and propagating it to become one of the most iconic horror intensities of all time.

I remember the time the dog jumped out through the window. Perfect angle, perfect subtlety, Biohazard is nothing without him.

-End statement

Kurylo3d5357d ago (Edited 5357d ago )

fear system? which makes them shake or even have a heart attack and die? So your saying you want your character to be a pussy. Right....

Its one thing for u to jump when YOU get scared in real life, but an artificial fear thing is not actually fear lol... Its a way to hinder the game play and make the character a coward.

BABY-JEDI5357d ago

I like the old Hitchcock camera angles but these could be used to set the scene. I would also like to see limbs being shot off of zombies (cause I'm sick) & this would add a strategic edge to gameplay. Also can we have people freaking out as there is flesh eating zombies please. Also NO CO-OP or steroids

Lord_Sloth5357d ago

1. Make it optional to please both crowds!

2. Stop picking up so much ammo if you don't want it so badly!

3. Make it optional to please both crowds.

4. Give us custom soundtracks instead.

5. That's just dumb. I don't want to die because my character's a coward.

IGN says it's fake.. Capcom says they are not responding the rumours. so it's FAKE right now.

this one.

Lets just hope its scary this time 'round.

Ryo-Hazuki5358d ago (Edited 5358d ago )

Please return back to there roots. Horror needs to return and ditch co-op. Its not meant for a core RE title.
Also need to limit all the ammo you can pick up if its going to be a true re survival horror game. I also think they should consider bringing back fixed camera angles but that doesnt bother me.

Tanir5358d ago

true, i adored the coop, especially my fiance. but they should keep that to side games not core games of the series.

Leon and jill meeting up for the first time is awesome, though really wish claire was the main character in this, i miss her

Grip5358d ago (Edited 5358d ago )

the co-op are not the problem. the problem is how the hell u well be scared when some zombie shoot at u with Ak-47 or ride bike????

Tanir5358d ago

LMAO!!!! grip so true! that crap was retarded.

i mean i have never been scared in any game, whether it be silent hill, dead space or resident evil, but i can see the complaints and overall atmosphere haha.

that gun wielding zombie crap was hilarious.

Eske5358d ago

Agreed. For most of RE5, you could almost forget that the enemies were supposed to be infected.

Finger-Eater5358d ago

Please no co op, i want to play alone.

Kamikaze1355358d ago

If they do include co-op, I hope it's a different mode and story.

Lord_Sloth5357d ago

I loved the co-op idea but it needs to be worked closer to what Dead Rising has to please every1. Drop in and while you're playing alone, there's no AI partner to assist you.

TaxExemption 5358d ago

I just googled the coordinates and they end up in Thunder Bay Canada. That's pretty weird

Pozzle5358d ago

At least its not right in the middle of Africa. I don't know what Capcom were thinking there. "Hey guys, let's get the brightest most un-RE type of setting we can find! Outback Australia? Nah, not enough volcanoes. The middle of Africa? Perfect!"

Wintersun6165358d ago

They should bring it to a place like Finland's Lapland, during winter, when there's no sun in sight for like 2 months and it's -40 degrees. Actually, that would be a great idea! The cold would add another dimension to survival.

EliteF505358d ago

Would make sense. Snowflakes and all that.

Take note, Sony, you're falling behind by a lot.

-Foxtrot53d ago (Edited 53d ago )

I was just going to say this, their biggest and top rated game here is TLOU2 for PC….it’s embarrassing.

Even Ubisoft and EA are ahead

Kind of surprised Nintendo is pretty low aswell, their biggest game is also a rerelease with the Switch 2 version of TotK.

StoneColdCrazy52d ago

That’s what happens when you start shutting down your own studios and forget what actually made you matter in the industry in the first place. Sony used to set the standard — now it feels like they’ve lost that identity. And if they decide to walk away from the PC market too, that’s going to be another huge mistake — that platform is only growing, and ignoring it now would just put them even further behind.

1Victor53d ago

@christopher:” Take note, Sony, you're falling behind by a lot.”
.
Why single out Sony? Microsoft didn’t do any better than the year before 5th same as Sony 9th and they have acquired activision and other mayor titles that have boosted their score massively from a 9th and Sony a 4th the year before the acquisitions.
Sony does need to do better without a doubt and I do hope they do take note but not the note of buying publishers is the way to succeed.

Christopher53d ago

1. Microsoft didn't get worse.
2. Sony got way worse.
3. Because Sony needs the criticism the most considering their publishing output this generation has been propped up by last gen ports and third-party developers for the most part.

53d ago
thesoftware73053d ago

1Victor,

I don't wanna speak for Christopher, but like most of us we recognize that Sony's output this Gen has been way below their own standards.

Also Sony did buy a fair amount of Devs, I know you will say they were not publishers, and don't compare in size, but they had their fair share of Aquisitions, including the very well established Bungie.

The overall point is with their stellar first party track record of the past, they should not be going down, they are singled out because they are some of the best videogame devs/publisher on the planet...no matter what reasons we attribute to the situation, they are moving in the wrong direction... period.

53d ago
KyRo52d ago

Its widely accept that Sony this generation has been underwhelming. We've had more peripheral releases, controller variants, PS5 accessories than games it feels like. The exclusives were also PS4 and what little output they have put exclusively on PS5 is nowhere near as memorable as what came in every generation before that.

This isn't a Sony hate post but anyone who's older and has been around for a long time gaming will agree that PS5 is by far Sony's worst generation. As much as Xbox is in the gutter, I pray the do bounce back in the hope we get Sony to wake up again.

darthv7252d ago (Edited 52d ago )

If you want to critique MS... you are doing so towards their management. The games output and their hardware have been much better than PS this gen. Sadly... people still hold a grudge against XB because of MS. Thankfully i am not that petty... I've been enjoying their games output in the drought of PS. And add in some NS1/2 games as well to balance things out. Things will change for me once Wolverine hits, and I start using my 5 more. That one I'm looking forward to. And the Marvel fighter... I'm not a GTA player so that has no bearing on my view of things.

Big part of that has been the live service push resulting in cancellation or flop after flop but when they put out the games their fans want we get amazing stuff like astro bot

Leadership really screwed the pooch trend chasing

Well I apologize I was wrong about not doing worse but my statement of Microsoft getting a boost still stand 🤷🏿

53d ago
1Victor52d ago

Well OBSCURED unlike you I’m honorable enough to recognize when I’m wrong and apologize.
.
@ The software you know there’s no comparison between what Microsoft acquired and what Sony acquired that’s why you tried to get ahead of the conversation, yes we all know Sony can do better than what they have done this gen but they inhaled the poison GAS they thought would bring money for years but we make sure they got the message and quite a few games got cancelled you know as well a hit like that take years to be corrected and by now they hopefully will have taken steps away from the GAS and slowed their approach to them.

You will say anything when you are in denial that your hardware is dead and nobody wants your platform. Good luck with Helix because nobody will buy it.

But... but... the garbage-mongers always tell us that Square Enix is in trouble! 😂

Christopher53d ago

Square doesn't help that it fear mongers itself with ridiculous 'goals' that they can't reach and then they proclaim failure if they don't reach it. They're quite freaking profitable and people act like they're dying.

SimulationDaily53d ago (Edited 53d ago )

Keep in mind that these "proclamations" are usually third-hand bad translations from somedude who was at the investor conference, posted on Twitter, and picked up by press and youtubers like they were gold, and then when the official translation comes out, they're much softer statements, but at that point, the damage is done.

gold_drake53d ago

to be very fair

being number one on these things does not indicate how "well" their games do selling wise.

Capcom Insists It Won't Use AI-Generated Assets in Its Games, Will Harness Tech during Development

Capcom has clarified its current stance on generative AI in its videogames. The major Japanese publisher and developer behind popular series like Resident Evil, Street Fighter, and Monster Hunter has revealed that while it doesn't use gen-AI assets in their games, it is exploring ways to use generative AI to streamline the game development process.

Chocoburger53d ago

Using Artificial Intelligence (more like Realistic Stupidity) art assets in your games is a great way to get people to boycott your product. We don't need that ugly, unsophisticated, generic, fake art in our games, good on CAPCOM for not using that garbage.

blacktiger53d ago

Naw you can't fool us, You work with Nvidia, that's a fact! And here you wanted to advertise but now look stupid!
