Resident Evil 6 Trailer: It’s Real… No! It’s Fake!

09/16/2011 Written by Anthony Severino

Last night, a “leaked” trailer for “Biohazard 6” aka “Resident Evil 6“, landed on Youtube via one particularly sneaky user. Some sources are saying the video is real, while others, are saying it’s a fake. What’s the truth here?

This is very confusing. Kotaku reported last night that a Capcom Japan rep “confirmed” that this Resident Evil 6 trailer was being shown behind closed doors in Capcom’s theatre at Tokyo Game Show.

Shortly after the initial reports, IGN‘s Rich George tweeted that the video in question is a fake, citing multiple sources at Capcom. Kotaku quickly followed up their story, calling the video a fake.

What’s the deal here? The video is rather convincing, with high production value. Granted, it doesn’t show much, but a “teaser” trailer never does. Check out the video below and let us know what you think. This whole siutation is rather fishy, but we’re going to go with the general consensus: It’s a fake.

    Hmm I don’t know. It’s really hard to tell

    Remember when someone leaked the full roster of new characters for Ultimate MvC3? Well, once again, Capcom is denying everything until they make the official announcement. There’s still the RE 15th Anniversary presentation. No doubt they’ll reveal RE6 then.

    That’s it? I thought there was going to be some game footage. They actually showed this behind close doors? Lame…

    I’m personally hoping that it’s real ’cause I’m from Thunder Bay, Ontario and this would be the coolest thing to ever happen for my city. That and it’d be amazing to kill my zombie self. =D

  5. Definitely interesting, the typewriter sound had me exited as it seemed to nod that they’re taking a step back to the good old days of RE which they said they would be for 6…lets just pray they don’t do another RE5, I want to be terrified this time around lol

    Magnets! That’s what it is! It’s a magnet powered ICP piece of propaganda!!!



    That’s my deranged opinion and darn it I’m sticking with it.
