Resident Evil 6’s Mercenaries Mode looks a little different from the previous games. While the concept is the same, you have more mobility in this game, which makes it look a little more fast-paced. Capcom streamed about a few minutes of the mode at the Penny Arcade Expo, and you can watch this below:

Recommended Videos
  • Each character has a different load-out.
  • Zombies jump at you. A QTE lets you catch them mid-air and take them down.
  • Both split-screen and online co-op.
  • The map shown in the stream above is a GameStop pre-order exclusive.
  • All playable characters in Mercenaries mode haven’t been revealed yet.

  Resident Evil 6 will be released on October 2nd for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. A PC version will follow later.
