It's been confirmed a spin off. I'll only accept it as RE6 when it's actually called Resident Evil 6. So until then their all spin offs.

Also it's a squad based shooter so don't be expecting a survival horror.

no, but hopefully this will get the shooter itch out of capcom. i hope re6 is actually focused on the series' horror roots.

It's a spinoff. It's also a flashback game. It takes place around the same time as Resident Evil 2 & 3 when Leon Kennedy was a rookie.

Also, what Crossel777 said. Capcom and Slant Six have already stated in a couple of interviews that it is a squad based shooter. NOT survival horror.

RE:Revelations is not RE 6. It takes place between RE4 and RE5.. RE:ORC is a spinoff taking place during RE 2

Its 100% Spin Off. CapCom said they have no plans to create another resident evil game for ages, until around 2018 to be exact. CapCom aren't even developing this, It's slant six games, creators of SOCOM. Incase you don't know, its nothing like a resident evil game, more of a third person shooter and you play as umbrella troops attempting to kill leon. It's set at the same time as resident evil 2, so leon's a police officer who's just arrived at racoon city.

UGH! squad based shooter, WHAT THEY HELL HAPPENED TO MY RESIDENT EVILLLLLL!!!!! and why let slant 6 make it. If you wanna kill a great franchise, hand it over to slant 6. Just look at what they did to socom.

No its a spin off and neither is Revelations which I believe takes place before 4 and 5.

Is that really true? That Capcom isnt planning a new resident evil game for that long? Whats the reason behind that, resident evil is still a successful franchise, why wait so long for re6?

Capcom is not the company it used to be. Seriously, it was like the second this generation of consoles hit Capcom starting sucking big time.

I've been a fan of Resident Evil since the beginning and if this new entry is a squad-based shooter I'm willing to give it a chance. Of course I'd rather experience a Resident Evil 6 that's in the same vein as RE 1-5. I guess time will tell how this one will turn out;)

Yeah tell me about it. When I heard this about Slant Six I kind of got that sinking feeling in mygut. And I agree. Even though I enjoyed playing RE 4 & 5, I just felt like something was missing. I want what RE 1 was all about. Get me a trueRE game that gets me back to that. I want real survival horror.

I think 2018 is a little far fetched. Capcom a few months ago fast tracked all their games, focusing on major franchises like Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, and Street Fighter. The link below says they want to fast track RE6 and there most likely will not be much of a gap between 5 & 6 like there was between 4 & 5.
