Capcom confirms Polish copies of Resident Evil 6 stolen

Report Resident Evil 6 copy loose in Poland

Capcom has stated the recent sale of Resident Evil 6 before its launch date in Poland is an "unfortunate incident" involving stolen goods. The publisher told Eurogamer that the situation is "limited to a small quantity of stolen copies of the German USK PlayStation 3 version of the game."

The publisher is currently conducting a "thorough investigation" into the matter, which saw copies of the game go on sale in the Polish city of Poznan last week. The game isn't intended to be released at retail until October 2.

Eurogamer also points out that one person is currently trying to sell a stolen copy on eBay. For anyone thinking of getting involved in that, let us just slide this article regarding knowingly possessing or trafficking in stolen goods right here.
