New Resident Evil 6 information has emerged out of Japan.
According to Japanese magazine Famitsu, the President of the United States seen in the game's debut trailer is not the father of Resident Evil 4 character Ashley Graham, but is instead the President that takes office after Graham.
This fits with information we've previously reported, as our sources tell us that the blonde woman in the trailer many people assume is Ashley Graham is actually Sherry Birkin, daughter of Resident Evil 2's villain, William Birkin.
The magazine also reports that the zombies in Resident Evil 6 were not infected by the T-Virus, and that the game's currently-unknown third playable character is meant to be a character that "young people" will be able to relate to.
Finally, the game is said to be halfway done. It will reportedly feature a control scheme that allows for cover, quick evasion and 180 degree turns. The development team is also bringing back horror elements and aims for RE6 to be the best game in the series.
The publisher says that the third playable character is a mercenary, and that his sections of the game will be set during a ? conflict in Eastern Europe, where infected mutants run wild. Meanwhile, Chris's part of the narrative will take place in the fictional Chinese village of Lanshiang, where he is apparently recovering from a "personal trauma."
Capcom also said that Leon's new partner is Helena Harper, a government agent tasked with protecting the President.
A new mutation of zombie, known as J'avo, has also been detailed. Described as "incredibly aggressive," the new monster will be able to regenerate. If it sustains serious damage, it is able to mutate the damaged limb into "a number of varied forms," forcing the player to rethink their approach.
A revised control system has also been confirmed by Capcom. Players will now be able to shoot while moving, as well as take cover, slide to cover, and roll. Melee will also be significantly expanded upon.
It's also been announced that the game takes place in 2013, a full 15 years after the events in the original Resident Evil.

Hopefully they stay true to the horror. RE5 didnt scare me once.

it looks good so far

The trailer is amazing but thats just a trailer. Hopefully the game itself lives up. For anyone who's actually a real fan of the series, I heard the blonde girl is Sherry Birkin (The little girl from Resident Evil 2) and the mercenary with her might be Wesker's brother.
