Resident Evil 6 coming this November [update: Trailer!]

Update: The official trailer has been posted after the break.

Resident Evil 6 was going to happen sooner or later. Apparently, the answer is "sooner." Resident Evil 6 will be available on PS3 and Xbox 360 on November 20th. A PC version will release afterwards.

The trailer shows a number of returning characters from the franchise, including Leon, Chris, and Ashley. It appears the stakes are much higher in this true continuation of the zombie-infected franchise.

Here's the story, according to Capcom:

Due to be by the President’s side is his personal friend and Raccoon City survivor, Leon S. Kennedy, but when the venue suffers a bioterrorist attack, Leon is forced to face a President transformed beyond recognition and make his hardest ever decision. At the same time, Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance member Chris Redfield arrives in China, itself under threat of a bioterrorist attack. With no country safe from these attacks and the ensuing outbreaks, the entire world’s population is united by a common fear that there is no hope left.
