Resident Evil 6[]
Chris's segment in Resident Evil 6 story mode is more action-oriented than Leon's, as he must fight heavily armed groups of J'avo, along with multiples other C-Virus mutants ranging from spider-like creatures to giant B.O.W.s. His scenario's partner is Piers Nivans.
His primary weapons are a Nine-Oh-Nine, an Assault Rifle for Special Tactics, and a combat knife which he uses as a melee weapon. Chris' hand-to-hand attacks are focused on punches, brute strength, assassination techniques and many others moves using elements of the environment in his favour. Most of his strikes can kill an enemy instantly. When Chris has his Combat Knife equipped, his dodge mechanics will be slightly different. Instead of diving to the side, Chris will now duck and step to the side. When dodging back, instead of jumping onto his back Chris will slash with his knife as he steps away. The forward dive remains the same. In addition, he has a unique quick shot with the knife that consists of two fast slashes powerful enough to stun stronger enemies such as the Bloodshot.
By pressing the attack button, Chris can perform a series of physical attacks. Also, much like the system used in Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5, Chris is able to perform contextual attacks on enemies depending upon the situation. He shares many of his melee animations with his Resident Evil 5 version, with some slight modifications. He also possesses, like all characters in Resident Evil 6, specific reaction commands depending on which weapon is currently equipped.
Melee Attacks[]
| Attack | Description |
|---|---|
| Hook Punch | Chris attacks the enemy with a single hook punch with his left hand. This can only be performed by pressing the attack button with a one-handed weapon or item equipped. |
| Hook Punch to Hammer Fist | Chris performs his left punch and follows it up with a hammer punch attack, leaving the enemy vulnerable for a finishing attack. This can only be performed by pressing the attack button twice with a one-handed weapon or item equipped. |
| Rifle Strike | Chris strikes upwards at an angle with the front of his rifle. This can only be performed by pressing the attack button with a rifle or machine gun equipped. |
| Double Rifle Strike | After striking upwards with his rifle, Chris turns it and brings the butt of the weapon back down for a quick follow-up strike. This can only be performed by pressing the attack button twice with a rifle or machine gun equipped. |
| Tackle | Chris sprints into an enemy and performs a shoulder tackle, hitting him in the torso and leaving the enemy vulnerable for a finishing attack. This move can only be performed by pressing the physical attack button during the sprint action. |
Contextual Attacks[]
| Attack | Description |
|---|---|
| Straight | Chris performs a charged straight punch to the enemy's face, sending him flying. This is most commonly performed on a staggering enemy from any side. It is also used to save a partner while he is grabbed by an enemy. |

| Rifle Butt Strike | Standing over a downed enemy, Chris slams the butt of his rifle down upon their body wherever he is standing. If near the head, it is possible to crush it. This can only be done on a downed enemy with a rifle/machine gun equipped and will replace Stomp or Impale. |
| Wing Pluck | Standing by the legs of a downed flying enemy, Chris will steady himself as he grabs onto their wings and pulling until the lower half of the body is brutally ripped from the rest, killing the J'avo instantly. This can only be done on a downed winged J'avo when facing their feet (wings). |

This is a counterattack that can only be performed on J'avo with a mutated arm and only when they perform their overhead swing. |
| Knife Stab (Counter) | A second counterattack for transformed J'avo. Chris dodges the enemy's attack and finishes him with a direct stab to the torso. This move can only be performed if Chris is equipped with his Combat Knife. |
| Pull Down (Counter) | When a flying J'avo attempts to grab the player, this counter has Chris grabbing them first by the arms and pulling them down to the ground, leaving them vulnerable for a finishing attack.
