It also revealed multiplayer as between 2 and 8 players. This morsel of information has since been pulled from the official Xbox website. Will RE6 outdo Operation Raccoon City for co-op?
This would certainly be a first for the Resident Evil series to have that much co-op support, with even Operation Raccoon City only supporting 4 player co-op online by comparison.
Resident Evil 5 featured 2 player co-op and it seems to have won over Capcom as a must-have in the series’ bag of tricks moving forward. Surely it can’t support 6 player co-op through the main story campaign? It must be for an as of yet unannounced mode. Co-op for 2 would fit easily. Kotaku snagged the pic below.
