Resident Evil 6 to be around 30 hours long
Resident Evil 6′s length will triple that of Resident Evil 5, director Eiichiro Sasaki has said.
Sasaki told NowGamer it expects the games to be around 30 hours long, more than that of RE5.
“The three characters each have their own story and you can choose whichever one you want and play that story, experience that character’s story,” he said.
“In terms of length, each character’s story is a little bit less than RE5 but when you combine them together you’re getting something that is much longer.
“While each character’s story stands alone, all of the characters wind up in the same area of the game, in China, so there is a certain level of overlap. They stand on their own but they do overlap in certain areas. You don’t have to play them all, of course.”
Resident Evil 6 launches on October 2 on PS3 and 360 worldwide and in Japan on October 4, $1500 limited edition and all.

Sounds good, going back to multi character scenarios is something the series has really been missing since RE2. Though seeing as the 30 hour claim is coming from the dev, i’m tempted to knock off at least 10 hours for a more realistic number.
