Resident Evil 6 lets you play as monsters

Resident Evil 6 will allow you to play as monsters.

Agent Hunt mode lets you join other people’s games and attack their characters as a mutant beast.

A report in Famitsu (via Andriasang) details the new mode, which sees you hunt down another player’s character.

Players will receive a warning telling them when a human-controlled enemy has joined their game, but they won’t be told which creature is controlled.

Multiple players will be able to attack at once and you can even use voice chat to execute a strategy.

The Agent Hunt mode will only be unlocked after the game has been completed.

Resident Evil 6 will launch 2 October.
