Combining action and survival horror, this new opus in the multi-million-selling franchise is the richest, ambitious and immersive title in the series to date. It promises to be the dramatic horror experience of the year.
Ten years have passed since the Raccoon City incident, and the President of the United States has decided to reveal what really happened in hopes of curbing the current resurgence of bioterrorism activities. Standing next to the President is his close friend and Raccoon City survivor Leon S. Kennedy. But when a bioterrorist attack hits the speech venue, Leon is forced to face a literally transformed president, and must make the most difficult decision of his life.
At the same time, Chris Redfield, a member of the Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance, arrives in China, also under the threat of a bioterrorist attack. No country is safe from these attacks and the epidemics that follow, and the entire world population finds itself united in the same fear, without the slightest hope.
For the first time in the franchise, Resident Evil 6 will see Leon and Chris, the series' favorite heroes, join forces to face this unprecedented threat. They will be joined by new characters who will each have their own perspective and their own involvement in this relentless “dramatic horror” experience, playing out on a global scale.
