<p>The storyline picks up 10 years after the events of the original <em>Resident Evil</em> game, Leon&#8217;s story centers around a small city named Tall Oaks similar to Raccoon City as it too has succumbed to a T-Virus outbreak. Chris’ story on the other hand takes place far off in China, while a third storyline revolves around a yet identified new character and Resident Evil 4′s Ashley Graham.</p>
<p>Capcom confirmed Resident Evil 6 will be hitting stores on November 20th but only for the Xbox 360 and PS3. No word yet on whether it will come to other consoles or the PC.</p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Original Story:</strong></span> Blame this leak on lax security at Gamestop. According to a report just in from <a title="Resident Evil 6 Logo, Release Date Leaked" href="http://ps3.ign.com/articles/121/1216842p1.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">IGN</a>, one of their crafty readers managed to send them exclusive photos of promotional displays for <em>Resident Evil 6</em> that had just been delivered to a Gamestop. The photos, which can be viewed below, not only expose the logo of the upcoming title in the <em>Resident Evil</em> series but also the date of release for the <em>Resident Evil 6</em> game previously unknown to the public.</p>
<p>According to the posters <em>Resident Evil 6</em> will hit stores on November 20th for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.</p>
<p>IGN sources also told them that the game will feature Leon Kennedy and Chris Redfield as playable characters.</p>
<p>When IGN pressed Capcom to comment they refused to say anything and said they do not comment on rumors or speculation. Figures.</p>
