Resident Evil 6 to launch alongside 'the most disturbing & frightening ad campaign ever
Resident Evil 6 may have already gone on sale in some parts of Europe, but when the game officially releases over here next month, it will launch alongside "the most disturbing and frightening advertising campaign ever" created, the campaign's creators have revealed.

Created by London-based ad agency Brothers & Sisters, the campaign includes two TV ads; 'Cries for Help' and 'Last Goodbyes'.

Both of the "emotionally raw" ads show people in their final moments before succumbing to zombies.

The first post-watershed ad, Cries for Help, is due to air on ITV1 during half-time in the Moldova v England match this Friday, September 7 at 9pm.

The ad will be followed up at a later date by Last Goodbyes, which shows men and women leaving emotional goodbye messages to loved ones.

The global campaign also includes an augmented reality game, where fans can be selected to "restart humanity" by submitting themselves for a series of psychological and physiological tests, and giant missing person walls featuring posters of fans and journalists.

Viral marketing will also start appearing on eBay, "such as university jerseys contaminated with the C-virus that causes zombie mutation".

"In advertising it's very rare to find a client like Capcom, prepared to make work this brave," said Andy Fowler, founder of Brothers and Sisters.

"Both in terms of the bleak subject matter and in going to air with a film that has no branding on it, and leaves the audience to discover what it's for. This project has taken us to the darkest places in our imaginations and we are phenomenally excited to see how the world reacts."

Capcom Confirms Post Launch DLC For Resident Evil 6 With 3 New Game Modes
Capcom has confirmed that the Resident Evil 6 experience will be further enhanced with the release of new modes and additional content following the launch of the game on October 2nd.

Available as downloadable content, three new gameplay modes will expand on the multiplayer elements:

Survivors Mode takes the classic solo- and team-based versus mode and adds a twist. Get killed and you respawn as an enemy character with the ability to attack the human characters. Take down two human characters to resurrect in human form. Last man or team standing wins.

In Predator Mode, one player takes on the role of the Ustanak, the fearsome B.O.W. that stalks Jake Muller throughout his campaign, and tries to eliminate the human players. The humans’ task: stop the deadly B.O.W. in its tracks, or at least survive until the end of the session.

Choosing the human side in Siege Mode will see players protecting a single NPC, while as a member of the enemy team, players will need to eliminate that same NPC. If the NPC is still alive at the end of the time period, the human team wins.

Survivors, Predator and Siege modes will all support up to six players online and be played using maps from Mercenaries Mode.

Players will be able to track their accomplishments in these three modes alongside their main campaign statistics and compare their performance with others by registering on ResidentEvil.Net, the free online service that launches alongside Resident Evil 6.

Further post-launch downloadable content for Resident Evil 6 will include additional maps for Mercenaries, which can in turn then be used as maps for Survivors, Predator and Siege modes, plus other items yet to be announced.

Ustanak = ο καινούργιος Nemesis; Απ'τα βιντεάκια που είδα με gameplay μοιάζει πιο ενδιαφέρον και γρήγορο από τα προηγούμενα.

Resident Evil 6 demo now available on European PlayStation Store
Those of us eagerly anticipating the release of Resident Evil 6 next month can now get our hands on the long-awaited demo for the game. Featuring missions from Leon, Chris, Jake’s campaigns that can be played either solo or with an online partner, this demo should provide us with a thrilling introduction to Capcom’s most ambitious, costly production to date.

The demo is now available on the European PlayStation Store (as well as the Japanese and Hong Kong variants) and weighs in at 847 MB.

Here’s a detailed description of what you can expect in the demo:

“Play as either Leon S. Kennedy or Helena Harper and further explore the dark corridors and moonlit grounds of Ivy University, swarming with the victims of the latest bioterrorist attack.

“The action in Jake’s mission switches to the neon-lit streets of Lanshiang as he and Sherry Berkin fight off the new J’avo enemies, including their fully mutated forms. Jake’s special hand-to- hand combat moves and Sherry’s stun baton are pivotal in their struggle to stay alive.

“Showcasing the global setting in Resident Evil 6, Chris Redfield and Piers Nivans head with fellow BSAA team members to the war-ravaged streets of Edonia. The amassed J’avo forces provide a stiff enough challenge, but that’s before the three-story high B.O.W. Ogroman crashes the party. Select Piers for a slightly different weapons loadout than Chris including a sniper rifle with thermal scope.”

Resident Evil 6 will be released for Xbox 360 and PS3 on October 2nd worldwide. A PC version is expected to follow shortly thereafter.

Τρόμαξες καθόλου; Είδες καμιά εξέλιξη στο gameplay;

[Scott_Pilgrim]

Εγώ έπαιξα και το δεύτερο demo. Σαφώς πολύ ανώτερο από το προηγούμενο καθώς αυτό μπορεί να παιχτεί. Δεν τρομάζεις αλλά σαν TPS κάνει καλή δουλειά..

[xGodKilleRx]

Με κάλυψε ο φίλος Scott,πάντως Shepard μην περιμένεις να τρομάξεις.

[Shepard]

Σαν TPS σε σχέση με το Gears3 πως είναι; Στο gameplay εννοώ! Το φτάσανε;
