Capcom, the creator of the popular survival horror game franchise Resident Evil, has apparently told VideoGamer.com that the copies of the upcoming Resident Evil 6 sold by a Polish store last week were 'stolen'. Apparently, Capcom is “currently undertaking a thorough investigation into reports that Resident Evil 6 is being sold ahead of its official October 2 release date.” "At this time, all we can add is that it would appear this unfortunate incident is limited to a small quantity of stolen copies of the German USK PlayStation 3 version of the game," the report cites Capcom as stating.According to the report, a Polish retailer allegedly acquired and sold a few copies of the game over a month before the game’s official release date of October 2. “Reports of the game being sold ahead of its October 2 release were first reported by Polish website Neo Plus, which claimed that it was able to buy an early copy of the game at a store in Poznan, Poland,” the report reads.
