Well Capcom has come through by releasing the full trailer and release date to Resident Evil 6. As well as a synopses. “It has been ten years since the Raccoon City incident and the President of the United States has decided to reveal the truth behind what took place in the belief that it will curb the current resurgence in bioterrorist activity.

Being a long time fan of the Resident Evil series, this trailer makes me excited. It looks like it’s combing everything that was great about the series pre-Resident Evil 4 with the fast paced action of post-Resident Evil 4. Bringing back actual zombies was a great first move, the second was keeping the game eerie and still present enough action to keep you on edge. However, with three separate stories going on at once, one being Leon’s, the other being Chris, and the third being a new guy with a girl who sounds an awful lot like Ashley from Resident Evil 4, I hope that story doesn’t stretch too widely and is able to make each story entertaining and captivating. Only time will tell if this is the game we all want it to be. Resident Evil 6 is set to be released on November 20, 2012 on PS3, Xbox 360, and PC.
