Resident Evil 6 (RE 6): Cheats, Cheat Codes, Unlocks, Unlockables, Tips, Tricks, Guides

It wouldn’t be a Resident Evil game without things to unlock, so naturally Resident Evil 6 for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 is no different.

I have compiled a complete list of all of the unlockables, cheats, tips, and tricks I have found so far. Please leave comments below if you have more suggestions.

Unlock Ada Wong’s Campaign Story

You can unlock Ada Wong’s campaign story if you want to play through the game as the beautiful bad ass, and completing her story is required for some of the other unlockables in the game as well.1

To unlock Ada Wong’s campaign, you just need to complete all three of the other campaign stories.

Unlock Infinite Ammo Cheat

You may have noticed an infinite ammo option that can be turned on from the start of the game, however this simply allows infinite ammo to be used in a game, it doesn’t give you infinite ammo for a weapon.

Infinite ammo has to be purchased for each weapon, and this time it takes up a skill slot for that weapon.

In order to purchase the infinite ammo skill for a specific weapon, you have to complete all four campaign stories. That means beating the game with Chris Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy, Jake Mueller, and the unlockable story for Ada Wong as well.

Unlockable Maps in Mercenaries Mode

Here are the maps you can unlock for Mercenaries Mode, and how to unlock them.

Steel Beast Map – Complete two story campaigns

Mining The Depths Map – Complete all three of the default story campaigns

Unlockable Skill Arrangements for Campaign Mode

You can gain the ability to set up to eight skill arrangements, that you can change on the fly in campaign mode. This can give you a much better tactical advantage, allowing you to set specific skills for certain scenarios you come across in the game.

To unlock these eight skill arrangements, you just need to complete a story campaign for any of the three default characters.
