NowGamer reports that while at Captivate, they got a chance to talk to the director of Resident Evil Outbreak and Resident Evil 6, Eiichiro Sasaki, and ask him about the length of Resident Evil 6. He expresses that each of the three characters have a story that’s, “a little bit less than Resident Evil 5,” but when you combine the length of all three characters together, they are something about 3 times as long as Resident Evil 5 (approximately 30 hours). He mentions that while each character has a completely different side of the story, locations, and gameplay style there are a few story moments and locations that are shared between stories. The developer also admitted to having a love for The Walking Dead and Dead Space, and had took a bit of inspiration from both series, including the HUD being a bit Dead Space-like.
