Capcom has recently unveiled their post-release DLC plan for their upcoming Resident Evil 6, the latest in the long-standing, zombie slaying survival horror franchise.

The emphasis seems to be placed on adding multiplayer modes. Besides the single player, RE6 will have a co-operative campaign, as well as both co-op and competitive multiplayer modes upon the game’s initial release with DLC adding additional modes.

Firstly, there will be a Survivor mode which takes a classic versus mode and adds the twist that getting killed will respawn you as zombies or other monsters with the ability to attack other players with the last human or human team left standing wins. Predator Mode involves a single player taking the role of the monstrous Ustanak creature, a dangerous bio-organic weapon. The rest of the players in the match will be tasked with bringing down the Ustanak before it destroys all of them. Siege mode will have human players and enemy players revolving around a single NPC: the Human players protecting the NPC, the monster enemies attempting to take the NPC out. All three new modes will support up to six players online.

Accomplishments achieved throughout online interactions and the game’s campaign will be trackable from ResidentEvil.net which will launch on the same day RE6 releases.

All of this sounds like solid extra content but the point remains that Resident Evil fans are still voicing a great deal of concern about the main game. Although it’s certainly far too late in the process to start making major changes to the game (especially considering the game has already been confirmed as certified gold with the first run of prints having been manufactured) but these DLC plans will likely do little to assuage the doubts that fans have had thus far.

Are there any Resi Evil fans looking forward to this DLC, or have you all already sworn off this title? Let us know in the comments below.

Resident Evil 6 will be released October 2nd.
