Resident Evil 6 Demo Now Available On Xbox Live and PSN

By Amanda Dyar
September 19th, 2012

Capcom has announced that the Resident Evil 6 demo is now available on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network. Prepare for the horrific journey ahead; Resident Evil 6 will release on October 2, 2012.

From the Press Release
Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 owners will be able to download the new Resident Evil 6 demo from Xbox LIVE and PlayStation Store. Experience first-hand why it is one of this year’s most hotly anticipated titles with content from the game’s three main campaigns that can be played either solo or partnering up via online co-op.

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 release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 across Europe and North America on October 2. A PC version will follow soon.

You can visit the official Resident Evil 6 website to learn more about the game.
