A trailer for Resident Evil: Vendetta, the CGI original film that follows 2008’s Degeneration and 2012’s Damnation, has been released and it can be seen below. The film supposedly is being treated as a “reboot” to the series and it looks like it takes a lot of influence and story from the Resident Evil 1 HD remake, which featured the terrifying character Lisa.
While the main character appears to be Chris Redfield, Leon Kennedy also is featured prominently throughout the trailer. Furthermore, even though Rebecca Chambers is said to be in the movie, I don’t think this follows the Resident Evil 1 storyline. The mansion looks like the Spencer Estate but that blew up at the end of the first game. Additionally, Redfield appears to be leading a group of BSAA soldiers, which means that the storyline takes place after the events of Raccoon City.
I guess we’ll have to wait and see what happens when Resident Evil: Vendetta comes out in Spring 2017. Well, Japan will get to see. We’ll have to wait for an international release.
