Pre-Release Resident Evil 6 Copies Confirmed As Stolen

This past week some copies of Capcom’s upcoming game Resident Evil 6 showed up on store shelves. Some very lucky shoppers in Poland had the chance to buy the game from a few different local shops in Poznan. For what it’s worth according to Capcom referring to the situationĀ “limited to a small quantity of stolen copies of the German USK PlayStation 3 version of the game.” Capcom is currently looking into the situation to see what went wrong behind the scenes.

This is quite a surprising situation as a whole, considering Resident Evil 6 doesn’t even officially release until next month, October 2. A week or so ahead of a leak is one thing, but more than a whole month? Either or, it seems that one of the Polish buyers is looking to sell his copy on eBay. Be careful doing so as Capcom might have some concerns with anyone buying it.
