Exclusive content for the PC Version ("The Mercenaries: No Mercy" mode[1], exclusive L4D2 characters[2])
Pretty terrible port with some terrible performance across the board.
Performance issues may be present on AMD cards.[3] -- Game is not very demanding, runs well for the most part. Can be played at maximum details with a HD6670 1GB.
Resident Evil 6 is listed as "Resident Evil 6 / Biohazard 6" on Steam. This is because Biohazard is the name of the Resident Evil series in Japan.

Issues unresolved

  • Poor performance on AMD cards.[6]
  • Cannot select 1366x768 resolution despite having 1366x768 native desktop resolution.[7]
  • If you take hits plenty of time the controller will disconnect then reconnects but the game will lag doing so.
  • Default mic is always on in multiplayer, there's no option to disable it. Lowering the voice chat volume to 0 won't completely mute it.

Co-op glitches

  • Jake Mission 4-4: Some players may be dropped upon entering the level.
  • Chris Mission 4-4: After collecting the three passcodes, you enter a quicktime event; the co-op partner might not see the enemies needed to be shot. Workaround is to complete that section single-player, and continue the game upon boarding the plane. [8]
