In a chat with Siliconera , executive producer of Resident Evil 6 Hiroyuki Kobayashi has broached the subject of the return of the zombie in the series: as those present in RE4 and 5 non-mirrored the classic features of this type of beings, the audience showed that they want the return of the classic zombie and that is why they were re-introduced in the sixth episode. Kobayashi explained, however, that those in Ke6 were revisited to make them more terrifying.

In the new game, Salman Kobayashi, zombies wander slowly as you would expect, but as soon as we approach their will of the shots or fast leaps to attack us as quickly as possible: it is as if they could have energy explosions when they need to attack prey.

Another novelty of the zombies of Resident Evil 6 is their ability to use weapons: this is because previously were humans and kept the instinct to use a firearm or other types of objects when they have to fight. Do not use the weapons in a conscious, but as a reflection of the people were.

Kobayashi has finally explained that there will be other types of interaction that we have with the zombies, one of which was very important and that will be revealed later. We'll keep you informed as always.
