After a week of being on sale Resident Evil 6 has finally managed to surpass the half million number of online players at any given time on Xbox 360. The figure has grown over the week, but only in the last day has it managed to top 500,000 . However, there seems to be more players on the PS3 according to the official stats page with some 800,000 plus online users.

Interestingly, the number of users who have registered over at the official game  partner website ResidentEvil.net is only 39,000 on Xbox and 56,000 on PS3 which makes for quite a small percentage of the overall players. With the website being key to unlocking more free content such as additional costumes, this does come as a surprise.
