After a ton of rumors, leaked images and more, it's been confirmed that Resident Evil 6 will be released on November 20 of this year (at least, for PS3 and 360, not sure on the release date for PC),here's the trailer:
Confirmed playable characters so far are Leon Kennedy, Chris Redfield and some other dude that I think is a new character in the franchise.

"The story takes place ten years after the Raccoon City incident where Leon Kennedy is working with the President of the United States when he suddenly transforms. Meanwhile, Chris Redfield is in China, which under threat of a bioterrorist attack. Confirming earlier rumors, Leon and Chris will work together for the first time along with new characters."
Personally, I think the trailer looks awesome, it's basically what I was hoping for, the gameplay/controls or Resident Evil 4/5 and the return of zombies.

Based on the trailer, we can see Leon investigating a small town that's suffered a Raccoon City-like infestation, while Chris heads to China for an all-out assault on the front lines. These two play styles merge to form what executive producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi calls "dramatic horror," which fuses action, tension and scares in a brand new way."
