With Agent Hunt mode, players will be able to enter the games of
others (who elect to let people in) and play as zombies in an attempt to
hunt them down. Here are the details on how to access the mode once the
game releases in October as outlined by Capcom:
Complete the main campaigns for either Leon, Chris or Jake to then
unlock the Agent Hunt stages for each of those respective campaigns.
When creating a Resident Evil 6 gameplay session a player has the option to allow/not allow Agent Hunt.
When a hunter searches for a session to join they will see whether
or not other players from around the world want to allow hunters into
their game.
The hunter then picks another player’s session to join and jumps
into that session (please note only certain stages will be available for
Agent Hunt sessions).
The agent side can be either a single human player with an AI
partner, or two human players in co-op mode. Up to two separate hunters
can join an Agent Hunt session. When a hunter dies they respawn in the
same session as a different random enemy from that area.
If the hunter eliminates the agent then they will be taken to a
‘hunt successful’ results screen where they can join another session if
they wish.
If the agent is eliminated then their game session will end exactly
as if they had been playing a standard game session with CPU enemies.
If the hunter quits the session then the agent’s game continues as normal with all AI enemies.
Resident Evil 6 is coming to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on October 2, with the PC version set to follow at an unspecified time.
