While the Resident Evil series began in America, Capcom brought zombie invasions to other continents. Leon traveled to Europe for Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5 was set in Africa. Will Resident Evil 6 take place in China? The Silent Chief found a voice actor resume that may hint at the game’s setting. Voice actress Wendy Mok who played an islander in Dead Island lists Chinese villager/zombie as a role for Resident Evil 6.

Ms. Mok removed her credit page, but still lists Resident Evil 6 as a project she is involved in on LinkedIn. The news comes a day after Siliconera discovered Resident Evil 6 on another voice actor’s resume.

That's a shitload of zombies to kill...

That'd actually be a pretty nice change of pace. Will it be considered racist like RE5 was though?

Bring Barry, Billy Coen, Rebecca Chambers, Ada and Claire back. Leave Leon and Chris in smaller roles.

Don't hold your breath. It'll be a white dude as the main character and a hot Asian sidekick chick.

China as a setting sounds like a great idea. I approve.

I want a female lead! Ada Wong would work, but I'd rather have someone "frail". The main character should not be physically imposing like steroid-Chris. (Best case scenario: all characters are Asian, and new to the series.)

It'll be a black male lead and Chris will be the sidekick.

Ada is going to be the new Wesker and Jill be the new medic like Rebecca chambers. Sheva will be our new communications officer like that woman in RE4.

It would be a nice setting. But that's not good enough for me, no more co-op bullshit and a return to it's horror roots. Only then I'll be looking forward to it.

Except that all the Chinese spoke Japanese. You'd expect some kind of cultural gap.

I really hope to see a new protagonist who has Chinese, African, Swedish and Iranian grandparents, raised in Australia, studied in the UK, works in Brazil. And a flock of 256 children with all possible permutations of descent. And that the protag's entire purpose is to protect them. They could keep saying things like "They're all equally precious to me", "I would never trade a single one of them for another" and so on. Just to shut everyone up about that racism shit.

You should look at Kane & Lynch 2. Very average shooter, but the environments are really well done.

Please make it set in ancient China and with 'Chinese zombies/vampires' that you have to kill with swords or tame with the yellow paper things.

Oh man, I don't think I have ever heard of any game like that... at least on consoles.

...never going to happen though.

If this is true, then I'm guessing we'll have other REs set at:

South Asia
Middle East
South America
Southeast Asia
Oceania
