Capcom is pulling out all the stops for Resident Evil 6. In addition to the already announced 3 main campaigns, they recently revealed that the series’ mysterious badass, Ada Wong, will also have her own single-player only campaign!
Of course you’ll have to beat the game with all the other characters to unlock it. They aren’t making this easy!
In addition to that, Capcom also unveiled another form of multi-player they’re calling “Agent Hunt Mode”, which allows you to play as the enemies in another player’s single or co-op campaign. Sounds awesome? You bet it does! Check out all the details below!
From the press release:
Ada Wong will be a playable character with her own individual campaign in Resident Evil 6. A single player experience, Ada’s campaign features unique missions and will provide her perspective on the bioterrorist outbreaks that threaten to wipe out the world’s population. Ada Wong’s campaign becomes available once players have completed the campaigns for Leon, Chris and Jake.
For those who want to experience the action as a zombie, J’avo or other C-virus mutation then the all new online mode Agent Hunt delivers. As a ‘hunter’ players will be able to infiltrate other players’ sessions with the aim of eliminating the human characters. As a hunter, players will have access to the unique movements and attacks of each of the enemies, including those of the various J’avo transformations.
So how does Agent Hunt Mode work?
- Complete the main campaigns for either Leon, Chris or Jake to then unlock the Agent Hunt stages for each of those respective campaigns.
- When creating an RE6 gameplay session a player has the option to allow/not allow Agent Hunt.
- When a hunter searches for a session to join they will see whether or not other players from around the world want to allow hunters into their game.
- The hunter then picks another player’s session to join and jumps into that session.
(Please note only certain stages will be available for Agent Hunt sessions.) - The agent side can be either a single human player with an AI partner, or two human players in co-op mode. Up to two separate hunters can join an Agent Hunt session. When a hunter dies they respawn in the same session as a different random enemy from that area.
- If the hunter eliminates the agent then they will be taken to a ‘hunt successful’ results screen where they can join another session if they wish.
- If the agent is eliminated then their game session will end exactly as if they had been playing a standard game session with CPU enemies.
- If the hunter quits the session then the agent’s game continues as normal with all AI enemies.
Resident Evil 6 hits stores on October 2nd for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 with a PC release planned for a later date. You can visit the official the Resident Evil 6 website to learn more about the game.
