Resident Evil 6 Archives Limited Edition Out Now. Launch Trailer

Resident Evil 6 Archives Limited Edition is the name of the Xbox 360-exclusive version of the latest installment in Capcom's long-running Resident Evil series! It was released on October 2, 2012 on Xbox 360 and PS3, with a PC version scheduled for release later on.

Here is the Resident Evil 6 launch trailer!

This version of the game, called "Archives", costs quite a bit more ($30 more to be exact at $90) but includes a myriad of great additional content over the vanilla version of RE6.

Archives includes the following:
* Resident Evil: Code Veronica X HD - The full, digital version of the high-definition re-release of Resident Evil: Code Veronica X. Originally released for the PS2 in 2001 and an update of the Dreamcast original from 2000, this version features all-new Achievements to earn, remastered music, tweaks to the menus, new item placement and such, alongside an all-new leaderboard system. Code Veronica marked the first polygonal 3D version in the series but maintained the slow-pace, tank controls and static camera angles that the series was built on. Costs $20 if bought separately.
* Resident Evil 4 HD - The full digital version of the high-definition re-release of Resident Evil 4. Originally released for the GameCube in early 2005, and later re-released in updated form for PS2 (late 2005) and Wii (2007) as well as PC (2007) and mobile (2009 for iPhone, 2010 for iPad). This game popularized the "over-the-shoulder" third-person viewpoint that would become an industry standard in later games like Gears of War. The first fully 3D game in the series, it re-invented Resident Evil as a high-octane action game. Costs $20 if bought separately.
* Resident Evil 5: Gold - The full digital version of Resident Evil 5 alongside every piece of downloadable content and expansion released for the title. RE5 marked the first true current-gen entry in the series, taking advantage of the high graphical fidelity of the Xbox 360 and PS3, to take the series to new heights of high-octane action. Costs between $20 and $40 separately.
* Resident Evil: Degeneration CG movie - This is the only version of Resident Evil 6 that includes the full-length CG feature film Resident Evil: Degeneration on DVD! Costs $10 if bought separately.

It's worth noting that the PS3 Resident Evil 6: Limited Edition is arguably a better value, as it includes virtually every major game in the Resident Evil saga (outside of Code Veronica) including digital versions via the PlayStation Network of: Resident Evil 1: Director's Cut, Resident Evil 2: Dual Shock Edition, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, Resident Evil 4 HD and Resident Evil 5: Gold.

So definitely weigh the two options, based on which games you already own and how badly you want the digital HD versions and the CG movie versus the PlayStation Network PSOne Classics retro versions sans Code Veronica, and make your choice! Or you can buy the regular version of Resident Evil 6 at the normal price of $60.
