What is Resident Evil 6?
A third-person action-horror shooter built around four intersecting campaigns in North America, Eastern Europe, and China. You fight zombies and other C-virus mutations with firearms, melee attacks, and evasive moves, playing solo or in local or online co-op, though Ada Wong’s campaign is solo only.
For you if...
- +you want a fast, set-piece-heavy co-op campaign
- +you enjoy sliding, rolling, shooting, and close-range melee
- +you prefer multiple intersecting campaigns and playable characters
Not for you if...
- −you want slow, tense survival horror with little action
- −you dislike frequent quick-time events and cinematic set pieces
- −you prefer one consistent tone and gameplay style
