Latest RE6 Update Feb 15, 2012

Capcom has
teased a few more details
about Resident Evil 6, the first
since its official reveal
last month

First Capcom spoke about the
mysterious third protagonist,
who didn’t seem in the best of
moods in the trailer. ”We’re still
trying to track down his real
identity,” the publisher wrote.
”But we do know this man is a
mercenary.” This third character
appears in the trailer alongside
Chris Redfield and Leon S.
Kennedy, but appears to be in
a different part of the world
however.
The mercenary’s sections are
set in an Eastern European
conflict where killing mutants
appears to be just another day
at the office. His blonde female
partner also remains
anonymous.
Chris Redfield is currently in
China, or more specifically
Lanshiang, a fictional town on
the Chinese coast, Capcom
revealed. According to the
publisher, Chris is currently
recovering from a ”personal
trauma” suffered six months
ago, the origin of which wasn’t
shared.
Leon’s support officer is Ingrid
Hunnigan from Resident Evil 4,
and his new partner will be
Helena Harper, a Government
agent charged with protecting
the President.
Capcom finally confirmed that
Resident Evil 6 takes place in
2013, 15 years after the
original Resident Evil and four
years after Resident Evil 5.
Capcom has
really spoiled us with all this
new information, however the
big mystery is this third
protagonist. He’s obviously a
character we’ve never seen
before in the franchise but
could he be one we’ve heard
about? It seems odd to keep
him shrouded in such mystery.
Also what could this “personal
trauma” that Chris suffered be?
Maybe it has something to do
with Jill Valentine, throughout
the trailer you can hear him
cursing an unnamed woman. It
appears that Resident Evil 6
may actually get the series
back on track after a slight
detour with the fifth entry. If
Capcom confirms that Nemesis
will be making a comeback then
I’ll be queuing up several days
before release to get a copy,
but sadly that’s unlikely to
happen … on both fronts.

I think he refers to the text being all centered. Would be easier to read if it was just like normally.

Thank you, Mass :) Guess you are right. I changed it.

Just read it, there wasn't actually anything we didn't already know about the game.

I'd suggest you add sources for these kind of things too.

The year wasn't too clear before this, I mean with what they said before about it being only 10 years after Raccoon.

The thing was cleared like two weeks ago. The 10 years part had been an error on their part during the announcement.

Maybe they're going say that 10 years after the Raccoon Incident?

Well, excuse me from trying to help. I'm not looking for news all the time, I'm planning to ignore the mercenary identity until the release date, but it seems it would be impossible

I think the new announcement might've been discussed here too at some point.

Yes, yes they did do that during the original announcement. They cleared that out and said it is actually the year 2013 about two weeks ago.

Okay, so they had a error at first. Maybe they're not sure what was going to say. But thanks, they cleared it.
