Developer and publisher Capcom has announced the release of three new multiplayer modes for their hit game Resident Evil 6, and the new content is available first for Xbox 360 owners. Predator, Survivors and Onslaught can be purchased for 320 Microsoft Points each or in a bundle for only 720 Microsoft Points. Predator mode allows players to compete in six players matches where one player controls the deadly Ustanak while the other players will attempt to fall the beast in alternating rounds. Survivors forces players to fight for the highest score, but as players are killed, they are turned into enemies that must attempt to kill the remaining survivors. Finally, Onslaught mode places two players head to head to see who can chain together the most kills while clearing waves of dangerous enemies. Read on for more details and check out each of these three new modes only on Xbox LIVE today!
Predator
In a series of quick fire rounds, up to six players take their turn as the fearsome Ustanak with full access to its weapons, while the others must avoid capture or worse. Human players score points for successful attacks, but lose points for being caught or taken down. The match is over once all have played as the Ustanak, with the participant with the most points crowned as the winner.
Survivors
This is the Resident Evil 6 take on the classic solo and team based deatchmatch mode. Like Predator, you’ll compete for the highest score, but once a player is taken out, they respawn as one of the game’s enemy characters, and must then defeat another human character in order to return to the fray as their original player character. Survivors is available for two to six players.
Onslaught
Chaining combos is the key to success in this two player mode where each must clear waves of oncoming enemies. The twist comes when a player completes a combo chain as this will send enemies over to their opponent’s screen. Expect the balance of power to constantly shift in this intense addition to the Resident Evil 6 experience.
Resident Evil 6 is now available from all major retailers and can be purchased for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Resident Evil 6 is rated M by the ESRB for Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Nudity, Strong Language & Suggestive Themes.
