The site confirms that the Resident Evil sequel contains strong violence and gore, but won't publish its full report until the week leading up to the game's launch.
Announced earlier this year, Resident Evil 6 will be available on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. A PC release will follow, but has not yet been dated.
The upcoming sequel is set 15 years after the Raccoon City incident and takes place in the infected town of Tall Oaks, as well as China.
The game is Capcom's largest ever production, with more than 600 staff involved in its development.
A demo launched last week for Xbox 360 Dragon's Dogma owners.
The demo, which features three different missions, will remain an Xbox 360 exclusive until September, when it releases for the PS3.

it couldnt be set ten year after raccoon city outbreak because it was in 1998 so that means resi 6 takes place in 2008 a year before resident evil 5 takes place

The BBFC should give a rating and nothing else, it might seem minor but i didn't want to know how the long cuts are, whats about a full report, they have already said 18 for violence and gore that is enough of a report
