Resident Evil fans are in for a major surprise, thanks to a leaked trailer for the upcoming Resident Evil 6 title, which mentions a whole new release date for the action horror game: October 2.

Resident Evil 6 was announced earlier this year and Capcom told fans to get ready for its release, on November 20.

Now, thanks to a leaked trailer from the company’s special Captivate event, a brand new launch date has seemingly been set, in the form of October 2.

In the video above (if it’s still available on YouTube), you can admire quite a lot of new cinematic footage from the title, as well as a pretty major reveal about the mysterious third protagonist, who joins Leon S. Kennedy and Chris Redfield in the new game.

Check out the video above and expect an official announcement from Capcom soon.
