VIDEO: Resident Evil 6 arrives this November

The rumours were true – Capcom last night lifted the lid on Resident Evil 6.

And consumers only have a short wait to get their hands on it, with a release date of November 20th on Xbox 360 and PS3 and a release on PC slightly later down the line.

It stars series favourites Leon Kennedy and Chris Redfield who this time are dealing with zombie outbreaks in towns and cities in the US and China.

"Resident Evil 6 represents a giant stride forward in the evolution of the series," Capcom’s R&D boss Katsuhiko Ichii stated.

"The development team, led by Hiroyuki Kobayashi, is working tirelessly to deliver the most impressive Resident Evil title ever both in terms of scope and production values. We are all genuinely excited by the title and cannot wait to share it with the world."
