Resident Evil 6 Pre-Captivate Rumors & News
  Mon 9 Apr 2012, 8:53 PM by xfactor


Captivate embargo will be lifted VERY soon, but it seems we got another new viral site. Here are all the rumors and news that has been culminating behind the scene so far.

First of all, we got a picture of an email over at NoHopeLeft, from a certain Cousin S to his/her mother about his unstable uncle who's going to reveal the truth of Raccoon City in a speech at Ivy University in Tall Oak, which will reflect badly on the family.

Next, we got a new viral site, at RaptorNews, a news channel covering topics such as Health, Economy, Culture and Politics.

And then we have this ebay URL from this certain "firefish2012" who's trying to sell a blooded Ivy University hooded jersey (which is what Capcom gave away at Captivate)

I have no idea if this one is true or a hoax, but this certain "firefish2012" also has a tumblr site which shows off a mystery letter from Ms. Sheila Collins, an administrator at Ivy University, to Ms S. Birkin. The content of the letter suggested that S. Birkin's uncle is speaking at Ivy University on this coming Wednesday. You can find the link over here: http://firefish2012.tumblr.com/ (confirmed to be a hoax now)


Update: Capcom's DmC Captivate trailer has been leaked and Raptor News Network was shown in the trailer. It seems Raptor News Network web site might be a viral site for DmC and not for RE6.
