Today, a new ESRB rating for Resident Evil 6 has been spotted online, with Capcom's 2012 Xbox 360 title looking set for another re-release in some form. To be clear, the Japanese developer hasn't announced a new version of RE6 in any way at this time - so the exact nature of this rating is still quite mysterious.
What we do know is that the rating, carried out by the US game ratings board, is for Resident Evil 6 on Xbox Series X|S. At the time of writing, this game only exists on Xbox 360 and Xbox One - with the latter being playable via backwards compatibility on Microsoft's current-gen Xbox machines.
Given that Capcom hasn't announced anything regarding RE6 on Xbox Series consoles, we'd be surprised if this is a modern Resi remake in the same vein as 2023's Resident Evil 4. It could be a more simple port like the Xbox One release, but with Resident Evil 5 not being mentioned here, we're left puzzled by what this rating could be for.
