Kennedy and Chris Redfield, as well as an unnamed newcomer &#8211; and each of them with their own partners, which makes a six-player co-op mode a not altogether unlikely thing.<\/p>\n<p>The listing also showed local co-op for two players (much like Resident Evil 5), and an unspecified online multiplayer mode for between two and eight players, although that information has now been scrubbed and replaced with a bland text description of the game.<\/p>\n<p>Resident Evil 6 was officially announced last week after a bunch of viral marketing via the website NoHopeLeft.com, and is scheduled to launch in November.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_31283\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Resident-Evil-6-coop-evidence.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-31283\" class=\" wp-image-31283\" title=\"Resident Evil 6 coop evidence\" src=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Resident-Evil-6-coop-evidence.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Resident-Evil-6-coop-evidence.jpg 629w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Resident-Evil-6-coop-evidence-300x131.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Resident-Evil-6-coop-evidence-250x109.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-31283\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Resident Evil 6 - 6 player coop evidence!<\/p><\/div>\n<h5>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/articles\/2012-01-23-resident-evil-6-six-player-co-op-confirmed\" target=\"_blank\">Eurogamer<\/a><\/h5>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Related articles<\/h3>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Resident Evil 6: Confirmed\" href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/31085-resident-evil-6-confirmed.html\" target=\"_blank\">Resident Evil 6: Confirmed<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two&#8217;s company, three&#8217;s a crowd, and six is humanity&#8217;s last hope<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":159,"featured_media":31087,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[31,1502,2037],"class_list":["post-31279","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-active","tag-capcom","tag-resident-evil-6"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31279","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/159"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31279"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31279\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31282,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31279\/revisions\/31282"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31087"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31279"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31279"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31279"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
