Cries Redfield

Chris retains his signature massive physique, which has become even more impressive over the years. He stands approximately 185 cm tall and weighs nearly 100 kg. He has short dark hair, masculine features, and a light stubble. His gear befits his status as a BSAA operative: a functional blue tactical shirt, a bulletproof vest, and practical pants. A distinctive feature of his appearance, noted by fans, is the contrast between the rugged, "gothic" texture of his frame and his surprisingly soft gaze. By 2015 (he was around 41-42 years old), Chris had come a long way from a hot-tempered young STARS fighter to a level-headed and wise commander. He's no longer as impulsive as he was in his youth, but his strong sense of responsibility and deep attachment to his friends remain intact. Chris acts as the glue that unites the characters (Jill, Leon, Claire, and Rebecca) toward a common goal. Despite his outward sternness and status as a "living legend," his voice brims with soft, almost tender tones, especially when speaking to those he cares about—emphasizing the humanity hidden beneath the indomitable soldier's facade. He remains willing to risk his life for those he loves, making him a classic "protector."

Claire Redfield is introduced as a seasoned veteran and a key figure in the non-profit organization TerraSave, where she helps victims of bioterrorist attacks. Claire looks noticeably older and more stern than she did in 1998-2000. She retains her recognizable image: a slender, toned frame, a haircut, and a traditional ponytail. She is 35 years old and stands at 168 centimeters tall. She prefers functional yet stylish clothing, including a red jacket or vest, practical jeans, and high boots. Her face reflects the cumulative fatigue of years of fighting biothreats, yet retains recognizable features. Despite being a civilian and engaged in humanitarian work, Claire remains a determined, courageous, and uncompromising fighter. Her character has been forged over years of fighting shoulder to shoulder with her brother Chris, Leon, and other heroes. She operates like a highly skilled professional: she handles weapons with composure, instantly assesses threats, and coordinates actions with other team members (Chris, Jill, Rebecca, and Leon). At the same time, Claire maintains her humanity and compassion, which is her primary motivation for working at TerraSave—she sincerely desires to protect the innocent and remedy the consequences of disasters caused by bioweapons. In 2015, Claire continues to actively work at TerraSave. Her activities include: Incident Investigation: It is Claire who discovers one of the first clues leading to the uncovering of the conspiracy (a dead orca with the T-virus), demonstrating her involvement in field work and analytical skills. Civilian Rescue and Coordination: Claire acts as a liaison between civilian authorities, rescuers, and paramilitary units like the BSAA. Her job is to minimize civilian casualties.

Leon Scott Kennedy stars in 2015 as a seasoned agent whose trademark cynicism and professionalism have reached their peak. Leon's appearance reflects his transition to veteran status. He is approximately 38 years old and stands 180 centimeters tall. He has a classic side-parted hairstyle, brown hair, and light stubble. His distinctive features are his striking blue eyes. He maintains his signature style: a leather jacket and tactical gear, emphasizing his readiness for action. By 2015, Leon's character is a complex blend of years of experience and deeply hidden wounds. He retains a stoic exterior and a habit of making sarcastic comments even in the most dangerous situations, but his cynicism is a defensive reaction to the endless cycle of bioterrorist threats. He still rushes to the defense of civilians without hesitation and is loyal to his duty, but his trust in people and the system as a whole has been undermined. He prefers to act as a lone wolf, relying on proven instincts, which, however, does not prevent him from working effectively in a team with other protagonists when the situation demands it. He remains sarcastic, often referring to Chris as "BSAA's golden boy" or simply "steroids." By 2015, Leon and Ada Wong's relationship remains one of the central unresolved issues in his life. They have come a long way from the mutual attraction during the Raccoon City incident to a complex game of cat and mouse, where personal feelings constantly mingle with professional duty. For Leon, Ada is an "eternal enigma," whom he, on the one hand, cannot fully trust due to her hidden motives, and on the other, cannot completely let go. Their relationship is full of understatement, mutual respect, and a secret affection that both are reluctant to publicize. Ada continues to operate in the shadows, sometimes assisting Leon, but always pursuing her own goals.

Jill Valentine is presented with a refreshed, iconic look that combines classic features with the consequences of a difficult past. In 2015, Jill looks strikingly young for her age (she's around 40, according to the plot), standing 172 centimeters tall. The official reason is that the T-virus in her body (a consequence of infection by Nemesis in 1998 and Wesker's experiments in 2009) has slowed the aging process. Jill returns to her classic short haircut, abandoning the long blonde hair she wore under Wesker's control. She wears a practical blue BSAA tactical suit, functional and understated. After being freed from Wesker's control, Jill underwent extensive rehabilitation, but the psychological scars remained. She became more withdrawn and silent, plagued by guilt for actions she committed against her will. Jill now prefers to work alone, fearing she would again endanger her loved ones. Despite this, her combat skills and determination remain unmatched. A reunion with old friends (Chris, Leon, Claire, and Rebecca) on Alcatraz helps her gradually overcome her isolation and reintegrate with the team.

Dylan is a middle-aged man with short brown hair and brown eyes. His most noticeable feature is his limp: he suffered a severe leg wound from a submachine gun in the past and now relies on a cane to walk. In casual clothes, he has the appearance of a respectable businessman, preferring formal suits and coats. Despite his physical disability, he exudes an aura of restrained menace. Dylan is a tragic villain whose psyche was shattered by the events of Raccoon City in 1998. Working as an Umbrella mercenary, he was forced to brutally murder his infected friend, bludgeoning him to death when his clip ran out of bullets. Since then, he has suffered from severe PTSD and survivor's guilt: he is haunted by suicidal thoughts and often plays Russian roulette in the hopes of dying. He's driven by a twisted vision of redemption and revenge on the world. He's polite, even affable, with the main characters, but beneath this facade lies a ruthless madman. Dylan believes the "corrupt world" and governments should feel the same pain he's experienced, so he plans to infect the powerful with the virus. He's a skilled manipulator, trying to tap into each character's trauma: he blames Chris for the deaths of his squads, Claire for hypocrisy, and Jill for not killing her infected friend (Claire). However, his philosophy crumbles before Jill's resilience, who, in response to his self-reflection, snaps, "You're going to kill everyone because you feel guilty? Deal with it yourself, idiot."

Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine of the BSAA investigate a series of mysterious deaths caused by an unknown strain of the T-virus. Rebecca Chambers determines that the virus is not airborne or transmitted by bites—all the victims have injection marks, indicating direct infection. The only common thread is a recent visit to Alcatraz Island. Leon Kennedy attempts to rescue Dr. Antonio Taylor, a robotics specialist kidnapped by an unknown group. The operation fails due to the intervention of Maria Gomez (Glenn Arias's surviving henchman). Meanwhile, Claire Redfield finds a dead orca with a gigantic bite wound and traces of the T-virus on the coast—evidence points back to Alcatraz. Chris, Jill, Leon, and Claire arrive on the island disguised as tourists. There, the main villain's plan is revealed: Dylan Blake, a former operative who survived the Raccoon City incident and is obsessed with revenge against the government and anti-bioterrorism fighters. He uses mosquito drones with an advanced T-virus that infect victims almost instantly. An outbreak begins on the island, and the heroes battle zombies and a new type of BOW—amphibious Lickers. Dylan infects Chris, Claire, and Leon, leaving Jill uninfected as a mockery. Rebecca arrives with a vaccine and saves the team. In the climactic battle, Dylan injects himself with the virus and merges with a giant mutant shark, transforming into a monster. With the combined efforts of all five heroes—using an experimental plasma rifle and reprogrammed drones—they manage to destroy Dylan and prevent a global attack.

Rebecca Chambers is no longer an 18-year-old STARS intern, but a mature, accomplished scientist. Rebecca is a slender woman of short stature (5'6" (165 cm)), with chestnut-colored hair, now styled in a short bob with bangs. At the beginning of the film, she appears in an "academic" outfit: a white lab coat, under which is a light turquoise knit vest, a white blouse with a red button-down tie, blue jeans, and brown ballet flats. Reading glasses complete the look, giving her an intelligent air. When she joins Chris and Leon for active duty, her outfit changes to a more tactical one: a white shirt with green accents, a red T-shirt underneath, denim capri pants, and brown combat boots. Over this, she wears the signature white flak jacket with green stripes and a radio on the left shoulder, as well as brown fingerless gloves. Rebecca has transformed from a somewhat naive medical student into a respected scientist and university professor, dedicating her life to researching methods to combat bioweapons. She no longer simply follows orders, but takes a strong professional and life stance. Rebecca believes that bioterrorism can be fought not only with force but also with knowledge—which is why she left the field for the lab. At the same time, Rebecca has retained her integrity and inner strength. When Chris and Leon begin arguing during a meeting, she sharply restrains them, putting them both in their place and forcing them to focus on the shared threat. She doesn't lose her composure even in the face of mortal danger. While held captive by Glenn Arias, she shows no fear and directly tells him she knows about his virus. In the finale, being infected with an improved strain of the A-virus and realizing that mutation is inevitable, she is ready to sacrifice herself and asks Chris to kill her.

Maria Gomez is Glenn Arias' assistant and, after his death, Dylan Blake's ally. Maria is a slender Latina woman with short dark hair. The most noticeable detail of her appearance is the loss of her right eye in the bombing at Arias's wedding; she doesn't hide the effects of this injury. After the deaths of her father and Arias, her eyes turned blood-red—the result of genetic modifications performed on her. She wears a form-fitting black tactical suit, emphasizing her agility and combat expertise. Maria is a mysterious, quiet, and cool woman who rarely shows emotion. The only exception is her interactions with Father Diego, for whom she feels genuine tenderness. She is boundlessly devoted to Glenn Arias, carrying out his orders with methodical ruthlessness. After the loss of her father and leader, Maria is driven by an all-consuming thirst for revenge—especially against Leon Kennedy, whom she considers the main culprit in their deaths. In combat, she is emotionless and deadly, demonstrating sadistic pleasure in inflicting pain on her enemies, yet remains eerily calm. Thanks to genetic modifications, she possesses superhuman strength and reflexes: she can easily carry the unconscious Rebecca over her shoulder, lift Leon by the throat with one hand, and shatter concrete with her punches.

BSAA Captain Chris Redfield leads an operation to capture Glenn Arias, an international arms dealer in possession of a new bioweapon. The operation turns disastrous: Arias deploys the A-virus, which transforms the infected into highly aggressive zombies, and wipes out almost all of Chris's squad. Before Redfield's eyes, Arias demonstrates an infected undercover agent, demonstrating that his zombies are able to distinguish friend from foe. The loss of his comrades plunges Chris into a deep crisis, and he leaves the BSAA and sinks into depression. Professor Rebecca Chambers, a former member of STARS, studies the A-virus and discovers its unique property: it is activated by the victim's adrenaline, which explains the unusual aggression of those infected. She also develops a vaccine and tests it on herself. Arias, upon learning of this, attacks Rebecca's lab with gas, turning her colleagues into zombies. Chris rescues Rebecca, and they team up with DSO agent Leon Kennedy to continue the hunt for Arias. Arias's men kidnap Rebecca. It turns out that Arias is a survivor of a government airstrike that destroyed his wedding and family. Obsessed with revenge, he notices Rebecca's resemblance to his dead wife and plans to make her his "bride." When Rebecca refuses, Arias injects her with an enhanced version of the A-virus. Chris retrieves information from Rebecca's laptop about Arias's next target—a large-scale attack on New York City. Chris and Leon arrive in New York, foil the virus's plan to spread the virus, and infiltrate Arias's skyscraper fortress. In a climactic rooftop battle, Arias injects himself with the virus and mutates into a gigantic monster, merging with his henchman Diego. Together, Chris and Leon destroy the mutant. Rebecca, having received a timely vaccine, survives. After the victory, Chris, having found a new purpose in protecting the innocent, returns to the BSAA.

Ada Wong returns as the enigmatic lone spy, whose motives and loyalties remain murky until the very end. She's 39, but retains her former grace and deadly efficiency. Ada wears one of her most recognizable outfits: a skintight red leather jumpsuit with a deep zippered neckline and high stiletto heels, emphasizing her femme fatale status. Stylish sunglasses and bright red lipstick complete the look. Her hair is a short, stylish, jet-black bob. Despite her frankly impractical footwear, her combat and acrobatic movements are phenomenally fluid: she uses a grappling hook for rapid vertical movement and stealthy infiltration. Ada's arsenal consists of an automatic crossbow firing explosive bolts and a pistol. The main detail that distinguishes her from her double is the scar on her thigh, which she received during the events of 1998. Karl's double, created from her DNA, does not have this scar. Ada acts as the eminence grise. She is cold, cynical, and utterly pragmatic. Officially, she collaborates with Derek Simmons and "The Family," but in reality, she is playing her own game to destroy evidence linking her to the project to create a Carla Radames double. Despite her outward detachment and habit of working alone, Ada is not without a hidden sentimentality. She secretly helps Leon and Helena, leaving them keys, weapons, and, in the end, a rocket launcher to eliminate Simmons. She never admits it directly, but her actions reveal a deep affection for Leon, perhaps even love, which she carefully conceals behind a mask of indifference. Ada is a master manipulator, always staying one step ahead of both her enemies and allies. Her signature communication style is caustic witticisms and ironic comments with a languid, slightly mocking tone. After destroying the laboratory and the data about herself, she disappears again, maintaining an aura of mystery as always.

Tragedy in Edonia (December 2012) Chris, a BSAA captain, leads an operation in Eastern Europe against bioterrorists using the C-virus, which transforms people into intelligent mutants called Javos. However, the mission turns out to be a trap set by Ada Wong's doppelganger. His entire squad is killed or mutated, and Chris suffers severe psychological trauma and post-traumatic amnesia. Broken, he disappears and spends the next six months in oblivion, living the life of an outcast in an Eastern European bar, numbing his pain with alcohol. Six months later (June 2013), Chris is found by his trusted partner, Piers Nivans. Piers forces him to return to duty, invoking the memory of his fallen comrades. Chris agrees and travels to the Chinese city of Lanxiang, where Neo-Umbrella is preparing a large-scale terrorist attack. He is driven not only by duty but also by a personal vendetta: he blames Ada Wong for everything and seeks revenge. He pursues "Ada" through the ruined city, battling Javo, but encounters Leon Kennedy, who prevents him from committing the assassination, knowing of the existence of the double. Joining forces with Leon and other heroes, Chris discovers the truth about the doppelganger and heads to Neo-Umbrella's underwater base to stop the final stage of the plan—the launch of missiles carrying the C-virus. In the depths of the base, Chris and Pierce encounter Chaos—a gigantic, virtually invulnerable BOW spawned by the C-virus. In a decisive battle, the monster fatally injures Pierce, shattering his arm. To save his commander and give him a chance to escape, Pierce injects himself with an enhanced form of the C-virus. The mutation allows him to regenerate his arm and gain the power needed to destroy Chaos, but it also transforms him into a monstrous beast. Together, they defeat the boss, but Pierce realizes there's no turning back. He forces Chris into an escape pod and launches it, remaining on the crumbling underwater base. Pierce sacrifices himself so that his captain can live. Shaken but rejuvenated, Chris continues his service in the BSAA, now fighting in the memory of his squad and Pierce.

Leon, now a DSO agent, is forced to shoot US President Adam Benford, who is infected with the C-virus and was supposed to reveal the truth about Raccoon City. His new partner, Secret Service agent Helena Harper, confesses to her involvement in the attack but promises to explain everything if they reach the city's cathedral. The pair fight their way through the zombie-infested city, losing survivors along the way. In the catacombs beneath the cathedral, they discover a secret laboratory and Helena's sister, Deborah, infected with the C-virus. Deborah mutates into a monster, and with the help of the newly arrived Ada Wong, the heroes are forced to destroy her. Helena reveals the truth: National Security Advisor Derek Simmons blackmailed her into participating in a terrorist attack, threatening Deborah's life. However, Simmons names Leon and Helena as prime suspects in the president's assassination. The heroes fake their deaths and follow him to the Chinese city of Lanxiang. There, they learn of an Ada Wong doppelganger named Carla Radames—the result of Simmons's experiments with the C-virus, fueled by his obsession with the real Ada. Infected with the virus, Simmons himself mutates, transforming into a series of hideous forms—from a centaur-like beast to a gigantic Tyrannosaurus rex. In the ruined city, Leon encounters Chris Redfield, who is hunting Ada's double, and they have a brief confrontation. In a final showdown atop a skyscraper, Leon and Helena, aided by the real Ada Wong, who left them a rocket launcher, destroy Simmons in his final insectoid form. Leon finds a chip containing evidence of Simmons's guilt, hidden by Ada in a compact. This clears Helena of all charges, and they leave the city together.

In 2009, Albert Wesker reaches the pinnacle of his evolution and ambitions, emerging as a post-human with delusions of grandeur. The 2009 Wesker is the embodiment of cold menace. He wears an exclusively black tactical suit made of latex or heavy synthetic fabric (a turtleneck and a long trench coat), accentuating his lean, muscular physique. His signature eyes have become bright red with vertical, snake-like pupils, indicating the constant activity of the mutagen virus in his blood. He wears stylish sunglasses only at night or indoors to conceal his inhuman nature from strangers. His hairstyle remains unchanged—slicked-back, gelled blond hair—but his face has become leaner and more predatory, with sharp cheekbones and a perpetual, arrogant half-smile. The virus gives him the ability to instantly regenerate and perform superhuman feats that blur his silhouette. By 2009, Wesker's psyche had completely lost any trace of humanity. He no longer pretended to be an agent or a scientist—he openly proclaimed himself the God of the New World. He sincerely believes that humanity is an evolutionary failure, a weak and worthless race. He considers it his mission to "purify" the Earth with the Ouroboros virus, leaving only a select few with suitable DNA to become the foundation of a new super-race under his sole rule. He addresses Chris and Sheva with tiresome condescension, as if they were annoying insects. The phrase, "Seven minutes. That's how long I can spend playing with you," perfectly captures his attitude toward his opponents—they're not a threat to him, but merely a distraction awaiting a global catastrophe. In 2009, Wesker's deep, almost pathological connection with the Redfield brothers is revealed. His hatred for Chris is not simply a desire to eliminate a witness, but an ego battle.

Sheva is a young woman of African descent with an athletic, toned build, allowing her to be highly agile and flexible in combat. She has dark hair and brown eyes. Her standard outfit includes a form-fitting purple tank top, beige tactical pants, high boots, and leather bracers, creating a look that is both functional and feminine. She stands 165 cm tall. On her left arm, she has a tattoo reading "Shujaa," which translates from Swahili as "hero" or "warrior," emphasizing her fighting spirit. Despite her apparent frailty, Sheva is a versatile soldier with excellent physical fitness and experience comparable to Chris. She takes her work for the BSAA seriously and is genuinely dedicated to the fight against bioterrorism. Her motivation is deeply personal: she lost her parents in a bioterrorist attack, which engendered in her a deep-seated hatred of any form of bioweapons trafficking. Despite her tragic past, Sheva is a loyal and reliable partner, respecting Chris and ready to support him in any situation, a symbol of the "partnership bond" in the game. She is decisive and collected both in combat and in critical situations, demonstrating an emotional attachment to the mission and a desire to protect innocent people.

In 2009, Chris Redfield emerges as a mature, seasoned fighter at the age of 35, carrying the heavy burden of his past. Chris is in peak physical condition—he's extremely muscular, his biceps noticeably larger than in earlier games in the series, and his neck and shoulders betray years of intense training. He has a short haircut, rugged features, and light stubble, giving him a rugged, tired appearance. As a BSAA agent, he wears standard tactical gear: a tight-fitting olive t-shirt that accentuates his muscles, a flak jacket, camouflage pants with knee pads, and high boots. On his left shoulder is a BSAA unit patch. Unlike the stubborn and somewhat impulsive young man of 1998, the Chris of 2009 has become much more gloomy, withdrawn, and cynical. He suffers from deep post-traumatic stress disorder, caused by the death (as he believed) of his longtime partner, Jill Valentine. Chris blames himself for failing to save her at Spencer's estate, and this trauma haunts him in nightmares and during battle, in the form of "visions" of Jill falling into the abyss. He's become less talkative, often brushing off his new partner, Sheva,'s attempts to establish contact, and exhibiting a fatalistic obsession with the mission bordering on recklessness—he's willing to take enormous risks because he subconsciously seeks redemption. However, deep down, he remains loyal to his comrades. Despite his initial coldness toward Sheva, he gradually develops trust and genuine respect for her, seeing her as an equal fighter, not simply a replacement for his fallen partner. For him, his determination to destroy Wesker is more than just a mission, but a deeply personal vendetta for the years of suffering he and his friends suffered. A meeting with a living, but enslaved, Jill becomes a moment of profound emotional breakdown for Chris, followed by a release from the burden of guilt.

By 2009, Jill Valentine is a completely different person than she was in 1998. She is already 33 years old, and years of fighting bioterrorism, and most importantly, two years of captivity under Albert Wesker, have left a heavy mark on her. Jill retains her athletic build, but the most significant change is her hair color. Due to Wesker's experiments, using her DNA to refine the Ouroboros virus, her hair has become light, almost blonde, and her skin has acquired a sickly pallor. After her release, she grows her hair to shoulder-length and usually wears it in a practical ponytail. She retains noticeable scars on her chest from the implanted and later removed control device, which is why Jill now avoids revealing clothing and prefers closed tactical suits and turtlenecks. Her standard equipment is a functional blue BSAA uniform. There's no trace left of the cool yet cheerful professional from 1998. Jill is deeply depressed and suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). For three years, she lived in a "living nightmare"—her mind was enslaved by the P30 drug, and she was forced to obey Wesker's orders without question, fully aware of her actions but powerless to resist them. Since her release, she has become extremely withdrawn and silent, her voice weary and uncertain. Her former demeanor and proud posture have been replaced by a weary slouch—as if she were carrying an invisible burden on her shoulders. Despite this, Jill remains fanatically devoted to her work. She is obsessed with atonement and guilt for the actions she committed under control. She strives to return to the ranks, training herself to the point of exhaustion to somehow numb the pain and "correct" what she has done, even if it harms her health. Her only outlet remains her work at the BSAA and the support of her permanent partner, Chris Redfield, with whom she still works together.

The Kijuju incident is a central event that unfolded in March 2009 in the fictional West African autonomous region of Kijuju. Several months before the BSAA's arrival, the pharmaceutical company Tricell and bioterrorist Albert Wesker began using the region as a testing ground for their experiments. Local residents were injected with modified Plaga Type 2 and Type 3 parasites under the guise of vaccinations, transforming them into aggressive creatures called Majini. At the same time, Tricell excavated the ancient ruins of Ndipaya, home to the natural source of the progenitor virus, to create the new Ouroboros virus. In March 2009, agents Chris Redfield and his new partner, Sheva Alomar, arrive to investigate a bioweapons deal. Their mission is to find the dealer, Ricardo Irving. However, it's a trap: at Wesker's instigation, an Ouroboros-infected monster is released into the warehouse, destroying Alpha Squad. Chris and Sheva encounter a total infestation of the city and begin pursuing Irving through slums, swamps, and oil fields. In the ancient underground ruins of Ndipaya, the heroes discover the Tricell laboratory, built on the site of a former Umbrella research facility. There, they learn of the Ouroboros virus, which Wesker intends to unleash across the world to create a new race of humans. Suddenly, Chris encounters a mysterious figure in a cloak and mask, who turns out to be his former partner, Jill Valentine, presumed dead. She was under the influence of the mind-controlling drug P30. Chris and Sheva manage to rip the control device from Jill's chest, and she regains consciousness. The heroes pursue Wesker on the Tricell ship, where the head of the African branch, Excella Gionne, dies after a botched Ouroboros injection, transforming into the gigantic monster Ouroboros Aheri. In a final battle in the crater of a volcano, Chris and Sheva destroy Wesker and Ouroboros, preventing a global catastrophe.

Background and entry into the estate The story takes place in August 2006. By then, the Umbrella Corporation had collapsed, and its founder, Ozwell Spencer, was on the international wanted list as a war criminal. The BSAA received a tip about his location, a remote estate somewhere in the European mountains. Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine were tasked with infiltrating the mansion to arrest Spencer. Their primary objective was to interrogate him and extract information about the current location of their sworn enemy, Albert Wesker. From the very beginning, the heroes find themselves in an oppressive atmosphere reminiscent of the 1998 Arklay Mountains incident: the interiors and layout of the estate are almost identical to the ill-fated mansion, causing the characters to experience bouts of déjà vu. As they navigate the dark corridors, Chris and Jill encounter a new type of bioweapon—giant monsters armed with enormous anchors. Lacking sufficient arsenal for a direct confrontation, the partners are forced to resort to classic survival tactics. When the agents finally reach the Umbrella CEO's office, they find not Spencer, but his lifeless body, and Albert Wesker next to him. It turns out Wesker has beaten them to it, seeking personal revenge on his former boss. A fierce battle ensues. Thanks to the superhuman strength and speed he gained from his mutation, Wesker easily overpowers both agents. Grabbing Chris by the throat and preparing to deliver the killing blow, he underestimates his partner. Jill, realizing the hopelessness of the situation, makes a desperate lunge and knocks Wesker and herself out the window. Both fall over the cliff into the abyss before Chris's eyes. The subsequent three-month BSAA search yields no results—no bodies, no traces. Jill Valentine is officially declared dead in the line of duty, and Chris falls into a prolonged depression, becoming more withdrawn and cynical. Redfield searched for his partner for three years, but to no avail.

In 2004, the Federation of Pharmaceutical Companies invited Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine to join the newly formed bioterrorism counteraction organization, the BSAA. They thus became among the alliance's first employees. Terragrigia bombing (2004) In 2004, Veltro attacked the solar-powered floating city of Terragrigia, spreading the T-virus "Abyss" and releasing Farfarello mutants (modified Hunters with stealth capabilities). The Federal Bioterrorism Commission (FBC), led by Morgan Lansdale, failed to cope with the situation and destroyed the city with the Regia Solis satellite weapon. The FBC declared Veltro destroyed, but Lansdale secretly collaborated with the group to provoke the attack and increase his agency's funding. The Return of Veltro and the BSAA Investigation (2005) A year later, BSAA Director Clive O'Brian fakes the return of the Veltro to lure out Lansdale. Jill and Parker investigate the Queen Zenobia, while Chris and Jessica investigate the mountain base. On the ship, they find FBC agent Raymond Wester, who is actually working with O'Brian. It turns out that Lansdale used Veltro to attack Terragrigia and then destroyed the Queen Dido, the ship housing the group's true leaders. The only survivor, leader Jack Norman, spent a year in hiding, injecting himself with T-Abyss to prevent himself from mutating. Chris and Jill find Norman, who injects himself with a lethal dose of the virus and mutates into a monster. After defeating him, the heroes retrieve video evidence of Lansdale's guilt from his PDA. The FBC is disbanded, Lansdale is arrested, and O'Brien resigns.

Umbrella Corporation was a multinational pharmaceutical conglomerate that served as a front for the development and sale of biological weapons (B.O.O.). The company was founded on October 22, 1968 by Lord Oswell E. Spencer, Dr. James Marcus and Edward Ashford after the discovery of the "Progenitor" virus in Africa. Officially, Umbrella produced medicines, cosmetics and food, owned a network of secret laboratories, ships, satellites and its own private army. The company's motto is "Our business is life itself". The logo is a stylized red and white umbrella that refers to the symbolism of the Templars. Spencer's true goal was to create a "superman" through eugenics and viral weapons. Key developments: T-virus (Tyrant Virus): Created by Marcus by crossing the "Progenitor" with leech DNA. He turned people into zombies and was used to create bioweapons (Tyrants, Hunters). G-virus (Golgotha Virus): Developed by William Birkin at the NEST laboratory near Raccoon City. It caused endless mutations and multiplied through the implantation of embryos. Umbrella actively infiltrated government agents (Albert Wesker served in S.T.A.R.S.) and bribed officials (Police Chief Irons) to cover up experiments. Due to Marcus' sabotage being resurrected by leeches, the T-Virus broke out in the Arklay Mountains, leading to an incident at Spencer's mansion. Later, when the U.S.S. tried to retrieve the G-virus from Birkin, Birkin injected himself with it and mutated, breaking the containers with the T-virus. Rats spread the infection through the sewers, causing an epidemic in Raccoon City. Following the U.S. government's nuclear bombing of Raccoon City, Umbrella has been the subject of international lawsuits. The shares collapsed, and by 2003, the corporation was liquidated by a court order. However, its viruses and B.O.O. samples have hit the black market, triggering an era of global bioterrorism.

In early February 2003, Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine, now working for a private biocontainment service, travel to a village in the Caucasus Mountains in southern Russia to investigate rumors of mutant wolf attacks. On the spot, they find zombies and meet the surviving girl Anna, who reveals that her father worked for Umbrella. Soon, Albert Wesker appears - he is looking for information about the secret Umbrella base nearby. On February 18, the combined squad, with the support of Chris and Jill, begins an assault on the Russian complex, the last stronghold of Umbrella. Colonel Sergei Vladimir, the head of the corporation's security service, deliberately releases the T-virus to turn personnel into zombies and stop the invasion. The heroes fight their way through warehouses with bioweapons and hordes of mutants deep into the underground laboratory, where the supercomputer "Red Queen" with the archive of the corporation is stored. While Chris and Jill battle the pinnacle of Umbrella's developments, the T-A.L.O.S. bioweapon (a huge tyrant with a rocket launcher and armor-piercing charges), Wesker secretly infiltrates the complex. Using his superpowers, he destroys two tyrants of the Ivan series and engages in battle with Sergey Vladimir himself. The colonel injects himself with a virus and mutates into a monster, but Wesker kills him and downloads all the Umbrella data to disk, after which he erases the memory of the Red Queen, de-energizing the complex. Chris and Jill successfully evacuate before the base is destroyed. Wesker soon anonymously hands over the stolen data to the court, providing irrefutable evidence of Umbrella's involvement in the Raccoon City tragedy. The corporation is found guilty, its shares collapse, and founder Oswell Spencer goes on the run. Thus ends the story of Umbrella, but Wesker gains access to all its secrets to carry out his own plan to create a new world order.

The events take place three months after the destruction of Raccoon City. Claire Redfield, continuing her search for her brother Chris, infiltrates the base of the Umbrella corporation in Paris. There she is captured and transported to a prison on the remote island of Rockfort. Shortly after her arrival, the island is attacked by a special squad under the command of Albert Wesker, who are looking for samples of T-Veronica. As a result of the bombing, the laboratory's T-virus bursts out, infecting staff and prisoners. In the chaos, Rodrigo, a badly injured guard, lets Claire out of her cell. Claire teams up with another prisoner, young Steve Burnside. They try to get to the airfield to leave the zombie-infested island. The path leads through a military training center, a luxurious palace and a private residence, ruled by the mentally unstable Alfred Ashford, the grandson of one of the founders of Umbrella. Alfred is obsessed with his sister Alexia and is convinced that it is Claire who is responsible for the attack on the island. He hunts down the fugitives by activating the deadly Bandersnetch mutants, and later releases the Tyrant (T-078) to ensure that the intruders are killed. During the clashes, it turns out that "Alexia", who gives orders to Alfred, is a figment of his sick imagination (he dresses up as his sister, suffering from a split personality). In a fit of rage, Alfred activates the island's self-destruct system. Claire and Steve finish off the Tyrant at the last moment in the cargo hold of the plane taking off, but Alfred manages to hack the navigation and set the autopilot directly to another secret base Umbrella in Antarctica. Soon, Chris Redfield arrives at the dilapidated Rockfort in search of his sister, where he encounters the revived Wesker, and then also goes to Antarctica to save Claire.

He is a Latino man with short, dark, curly hair (an undercut), a neat stubble, and piercing brown eyes. He has an athletic, but not overly muscular, build and a slightly tired, yet lively, face. He is dressed in UBCS tactical fatigues (blue pants, a light flak jacket over a short-sleeved T-shirt). Carlos is a cynical pragmatist with a kind heart. He's tired of war and understands that Umbrella is using him as expendable, but he hasn't lost his humanity. He jokes with Jill even in the hell of Raccoon City. He risks his life to save Jill, even though he could have escaped alone. He's not a hero, but a professional simply trying to survive and help those around him. He's sincere, and can lose his temper or lose his composure in the moment. Carlos was born in South America to a poor family of Native American descent. As a young man, he joined a communist guerrilla unit fighting against a local dictatorship. When his group was routed, Carlos was captured. He faced execution, but the Umbrella Corporation ransomed him, offering him service in lieu of death. Thus, he became a soldier in the UBCS unit—a unit that was actually intended to cover the corporation's bioweapons experiments. By the time of Raccoon City (1998), he is 21 years old. He has seen little good in the world, but it is in the hell of a zombie apocalypse that he decides to follow his conscience rather than follow orders.

Claire Redfield is the younger sister of Chris Redfield and a symbol of resilience in the face of the zombie apocalypse. Unlike Leon, she comes to Raccoon City not for duty, but for personal reasons - in search of her missing brother. Claire is a slender 19-year-old girl with long brown red hair tied in a ponytail and expressive brown eyes. The face is lively, with a slight blush, but by the end of the game it is covered in dirt and scratches. The clothes are practical: a red leather jacket over a black T-shirt, blue jeans and high lace-up boots. On the back is a small backpack. The key detail of the image is a poncho with the inscription "Made in Heaven", a gift from her brother, which she wears on her belt. Claire is determined and daring, but not reckless. She is not a military man, but a college student who is fond of motorcycles. Her bravery stems from her love for her brother and an innate sense of justice. Claire is sharp-tongued: she often comments on the absurdity of what is happening with phrases like "Well, of course, a secret passage behind the bookcase. How original." At the same time, she is deeply empathic: after learning Sherry's story, Claire instantly takes on the role of a protector, replacing the girl's mother at the most terrible moment of her life. She does not hesitate when it comes to risking herself to save a child or even an injured Annette Arriving in the city on a motorcycle, Claire immediately encounters a zombie and meets Leon. After dividing, she enters the site, then enters the NEST laboratory through the shelter. Her storyline is closely related to Sherry Birkin. It is Claire who saves the girl from the maniac Irons, protects her from the mutated William and, having received instructions from the dying Annette, synthesizes a vaccine against the G-virus. In the finale, Claire, along with Leon and Sherry, leaves on the train, vowing to continue the fight against Umbrella. Unlike Leon, who is just starting his journey as an agent, Claire is already demonstrating a willingness to become a fighter against bioterror.

Leon is 21 years old, he is young, but in one night his face changes from fresh to deathly tired. Leon has ash-blond hair styled in a classic '90s bob with long bangs. Rain and constant fighting leave his hair damp, with strands falling over his forehead and slightly obscuring his right eye. His features are regular, with a strong chin, sharp cheekbones, and a straight nose. His eyes are bright blue, but at the beginning of the game, their gaze is wide, frightened, and naive. By the end of the game, fresh bruises and cuts appear on his face, shadows form under his eyes, and his gaze becomes heavy and focused. His build is athletic, but not overly muscular: Leon is trim and slender. He stands about 180 cm tall. His posture is initially hunched and cautious—he presses against the walls and flinches at sounds. Toward the end, his movements become confident, his shoulders square. Leon wears a full set of RPD uniform: A dark blue long sleeve uniform shirt with a Raccoon City Police Department patch. A dark blue bulletproof vest with a large white RPD inscription on the back and a patch on the chest. Blue tactical pants with functional pockets and knee pads. Black high lace-up boots. A holster for a pistol and pouches for ammunition are attached to the belt. Throughout the story, the uniform undergoes realistic changes: a sleeve rips in a fight with a zombie, and his body armor becomes coated in dirt and blood spatter. After being wounded in the shoulder by Anna Birkin in the NEST lab, Leon noticeably limps, and his shirt becomes soaked with fresh blood. A confused idealist, Leon arrived in the city with the thought, "Finally, I can help people," but instead found himself confronted with the end of the world. His dialogue is filled with uncertainty: "What the hell is going on here?" He's not a tough guy, but an ordinary guy who forgot to load his spare clip and is afraid of dark corridors. However, he never wavers from his principle of "protecting and serving." Empathy. Leon is deeply distressed by the death of Lieutenant Marvin Bran.

Claire Redfield arrives in Raccoon City in search of her missing brother Chris, but finds herself in the midst of a zombie apocalypse. In the city, she runs into Leon Kennedy, but the heroes are quickly separated by a burning car. Claire heads to the police station, where she encounters the corrupt Chief of Police, Brian Irons, who tries to kill her, but is killed by a mutant. There, Claire meets a little girl, Sherry Birkin, who is being chased by a terrible monster, which is her infected father. Together with her new ward, Claire makes her way into the sewers, where they are separated by a stream of water. After passing through the dungeons and the Umbrella laboratory complex, she learns the tragic story of the Birkin family. Scientist William Birkin, the creator of the G-virus, was mortally wounded by the corporation's special forces while trying to sell his creation to the side. In desperation, he injected himself with the virus and mutated into a monster that now relentlessly pursues his daughter Sherry. Claire finds the girl, but discovers that William managed to infect her with a G-virus embryo. In the laboratory, Claire meets the dying Annette Birkin, Sherry's mother and William's wife. Before she dies, Annette manages to tell Claire the recipe for a vaccine that can save the girl. After preparing the medicine, Claire, along with Leon and Sherry, make their way to the emergency train. They manage to inject the vaccine and save Sherry, but a mutated Birkin in his final form attacks the squad. The survivors activate the train's self-destruct system and escape at the last moment. In the finale, Claire, along with Leon and Sherry, leave the doomed city. She vows to continue her search for her brother, while Leon decides to fight Umbrella.

The plot takes place on September 29, 1998, in the American city of Raccoon City, whose inhabitants have turned into zombies due to the leak of the T-virus developed by the Umbrella Corporation. Rookie police officer Leon Scott Kennedy and student Claire Redfield (searching for her brother Chris) meet by chance and, while fleeing zombies, split up, agreeing to meet at the police station. There, they learn that most of the officers have been killed, and Chris has left for Europe to investigate Umbrella. Splitting up, the heroes search for a way to escape. Claire finds little Sherry Birkin, pursued by a monster. Leon meets the mysterious Ada Wong, who is searching for her boyfriend, John. Recordings reveal that Police Chief Irons was bribed by Umbrella to cover up the development of a new G-virus by scientist William Birkin. William, trying to save the virus from Umbrella agents, injected himself with it and mutated into a monster that now hunts Sherry for her genetic compatibility. Ada turns out to be a spy sent to retrieve a sample of the G-virus hidden in Sherry's pendant. Claire eventually finds Sherry and learns from the mortally wounded Annette Birkin that the girl is infected with a G-mutant embryo. Leon battles the invulnerable Tyrant. In the decisive battle, Ada sacrifices herself for Leon, and Annette, before dying, gives Claire the instructions for creating a vaccine. Claire prepares the cure and saves Sherry. In the final scene, Leon, Claire, and Sherry escape the complex on a train, which explodes along with the mutated William Birkin. Safe, Leon and Claire resolve to continue the fight and destroy Umbrella. According to official information, the city was attacked by a nuclear strike by the US government to stop the outbreak of the T-virus and G-virus.

September 1998. Raccoon City is engulfed in a zombie apocalypse. Jill Valentine, a former STARS member, decides to escape the city. But Umbrella unleashes Nemesis, a biological weapon ordered to destroy all surviving STARS members. Jill battles Nemesis throughout the city. Along the way, she encounters UBCS mercenary Carlos Oliveira. At first, she distrusts him, but they are forced to team up. Together, they launch a tram to reach the substation, but Nemesis attacks again. In a fight with a monster, Jill is infected with the T-virus and loses consciousness. Carlos, risking his life, fights his way through the zombie-infested hospital and finds the serum. He administers the injection and saves Jill from becoming a zombie. After waking up, Jill rushes to the waste processing plant, where she encounters the mutated Nemesis. In a final battle, she knocks him into acid. Carlos calls a helicopter, and they reach the roof. The city is destroyed by a nuclear strike minutes before the explosion. They survive and escape the ruins. Afterward, Carlos and Jill decide to go to a bar, where they say goodbye on a good note.

The G-virus (Golgotha ​​Virus) is a unique pathogen developed by Dr. William Birkin in the underground NEST laboratory as a "more advanced" alternative to the T-virus. Unlike the T-virus, which causes tissue necrosis and complete intellectual deterioration, the G-virus imbues its host with supernatural regeneration and the ability to undergo endless evolutionary mutations in response to damage. The virus's key feature is its reproduction mechanism: the host seeks to implant a G-virus embryo into a genetically compatible relative. Birkin developed the G-virus from the Progenitor Virus, experimenting on Lisa Trevor. In 1998, he decided to sell the development to the US government, but was fatally wounded by an Umbrella special forces unit. After injecting himself with the sample, Birkin mutated into a monster and destroyed the unit, breaking the vials containing the T-virus in the process. The rats spread the infection through the sewers, causing an epidemic in the city. The virus causes radical restructuring of the body, accelerating metabolism. Each fatal injury triggers a new stage: G-1: The right arm and shoulder are hypertrophied, a large eye appears. Remnants of consciousness are retained. G-2: A new head grows, the face shifts to the chest. Claws appear. G-3: The body becomes symmetrical with four functional arms. G-4: Walks on all fours, chest opening into a huge mouth. G-5: The final stage is a formless biomass that absorbs everything to maintain energy. There is no complete cure. The DEVIL vaccine, synthesized by Claire, only suppresses the virus's activity in Sherry Birkin's body, halting her mutation, but does not completely eliminate it. Thanks to the residual properties of the G-virus, Sherry has experienced slowed aging and remarkable regeneration. The G-virus has not spread as widely as the T-virus, but samples of it have been smuggled out of the city by Ada Wong and HUNK for various organizations.

The T-Virus, or Tyrant Virus, is an RNA virus developed by Umbrella Corporation as a biological weapon, the leak of which led to the Raccoon City disaster. The development of the T-virus began with the discovery of the Progenitor virus in the African plant "Stairway to the Sun." In 1977, Dr. James Marcus, one of the founders of Umbrella, succeeded in creating the first stable version of the virus by combining Progenitor with leech DNA. His student, William Birkin, later refined the virus, creating numerous strains and biological weapons (BOWs) based on it, including the famous Tyrant, after which the virus was named. The T-virus was created not to turn people into zombies, but to develop an advanced biological weapon through accelerated gene recombination. The virus dramatically accelerates metabolism and causes uncontrolled mutations. However, most organisms are unable to adapt to such rapid changes. The process of human infection goes through several stages. Initial stage: Itching, tissue necrosis, increased appetite (due to the body's need for energy to fight the virus). Intermediate stage: Degradation of intelligence, loss of reason due to damage to the cerebral cortex. The final stage: Transformation into a zombie—an aggressive creature with minimal brain activity, driven only by the hunger instinct. Due to severe necrosis, zombies constantly "rot alive." The virus is transmitted through bodily fluids (bites, blood) and contaminated water. The rate of transformation depends on the host's immunity and the route of infection: from a few minutes (direct injection) to several days.

Chris Redfield in 1998 appears as a classic action hero of the 90s with a pronounced sense of duty. He is 25 years old, 181 cm tall, weighing about 80 kg. He wears a green S.T.A.R.S. body armor over a white t-shirt with the sleeves rolled up, blue tactical pants, combat boots, and a shoulder holster. The face has rough, angular features, a squint and a strong-willed chin. The trademark is a knife attached to the chest. Chris's character is stubborn, straightforward, grumpy and somewhat short-tempered. He is a former Air Force pilot who is used to relying on discipline, but in a critical situation, he acts impulsively, guided by the principle of "first save, then deal with it." He is deeply loyal to his comrades and keenly feels the death of his colleagues, especially the death of Richard. Unlike the more sensible Jill, Chris is less flexible in solving puzzles and often goes ahead. He is distrustful of Wesker from the beginning and openly shows hostility towards the traitor, which contrasts with Barry and Jill's more diplomatic stance. Despite the outward severity, Chris sincerely cares about his younger partner Rebecca Chambers, taking on the role of an older brother. By the end of the events of the mansion, his character is tempered: from just a brave soldier, he turns into a principled fighter against Umbrella, ready to act outside the system for the sake of the truth.

Jill Valentine appears as a classic "jack of all trades" from the special forces. She is 23 years old, 166 cm tall. She is dressed in Bermuda shorts and a turtleneck, but the recognizable blue beret S.T.A.R.S. has been preserved. Jill is the daughter of professional thief Dick Valentine. After serving in the Army and Delta Squad, she joined S.T.A.R.S. as a specialist in explosives and decoy disposal. Unlike the impulsive Chris, Jill is more cool, reasonable, and flexible in critical situations. In the plot of the mansion, her line is closely related to Barry Burton. Wesker blackmails Barry into keeping his family safe, causing him to mislead Jill. Despite her partner's strange behavior, Jill maintains trust in him and eventually helps Barry break free from Wesker's control. She is the first to find evidence of the captain's betrayal in the laboratory. Jill's character is a mixture of professionalism and empathy. She is acutely aware of the death of her colleagues, but does not allow her emotions to interfere with the completion of the task. She survives the mansion with Chris, Barry, and Rebecca before staying in Raccoon City to gather evidence against Umbrella.

STARS (Special Tactics and Rescue Service) is an elite unit of the Raccoon City police force, created to combat terrorism and emergencies. However, Umbrella Corporation was behind its creation, secretly funding the unit and planting its agent, Albert Wesker, as captain, to use the fighters as test subjects. Albert Wesker, captain and double agent for Umbrella, betrayed the squad to test the Tyrant bioweapon, but was killed by it. Chris Redfield is a former Air Force pilot, flight technician, and marksman. Jill Valentine is a mechanical and explosives specialist and a former member of Delta Force. Barry Burton is a former special forces soldier and heavy weapons expert. Brad Vickers is a helicopter pilot, intelligence gathering specialist, and computer security specialist. He is known for his cowardice. Joseph Frost, an automotive specialist, was the first to die during the landing in the Arklay Mountains, attacked by Cerberus. After returning to the city, the survivors attempted to expose the truth about Umbrella, but Police Chief Brian Irons (who was on the corporation's payroll) hushed up the investigation and disbanded STARS. The team was replaced by the Raccoon SWAT team. The former STARS members continued the fight independently: Chris went to Europe, Jill remained in the city, and Barry took his family to Canada. The finale of the STARS story was the dispatch of the bioweapon "Nemesis" to the infected Raccoon City with the sole purpose of eliminating the remaining witnesses from among the former fighters of the squad. Now this team is officially closed and disbanded.

The S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team was a SWAT unit of the Raccoon City Police Force, dispatched on July 23, 1998, to investigate a series of cannibalistic murders in the Arklay Mountains. The team consisted of six fighters under the command of S.T.A.R.S. deputy captain Enrico Marini. Enrico Marini - Captain, Wesker's deputy. He found evidence of betrayal within S.T.A.R.S. and Umbrella's connection to what was happening, but was shot by Wesker in the tunnels of the mansion, only managing to say "Umbrella". Rebecca Chambers is the youngest member of the squad, a medic and a biochemist. The only survivor of the entire Bravo team. Richard Aiken - Signalman In the mansion, he was seriously injured by the giant snake Yaung and subsequently died of poison. Forest Speier is a sniper and weapons technician. He was killed by a flock of infected crows on the balcony of the mansion, later resurrected as a fast and dangerous zombie. Kenneth Sullivan is an intelligence officer. He was the first person found dead: a zombie gnawed his throat. Edward Dewey is a pilot and home front fighter. After the helicopter crash, he was fatally wounded by Cerberus and died in Rebecca's arms on the Ecliptic Express train. Raccoon City pilot Kevin Dooley flew the Bravo helicopter. He was not a member of the S.T.A.R.S., but was killed by Cerberus near a crashed car. The chronology of the tragedy: the helicopter's engine failed, and the crew made a hard landing in the forest. The group split up: Rebecca went to the train, where she met the escaped prisoner Billy Cohen and survived an attack by zombies and Cerberus. The rest of the members made it to Spencer's mansion, where they were killed one by one by its monstrous inhabitants. The survivor Rebecca later joined Team Alpha and left the mansion with Chris and Jill.

July 24, 1998. STARS Alpha Team is dispatched to search for the missing Bravo Team in the forest near Raccoon City, the scene of a series of mysterious murders. After discovering a crashed helicopter containing the body of pilot Kevin, the team is attacked by Cerberus—infected dogs. One of the team members, Joseph Frost, is killed, and pilot Brad Vickers flees in panic. The survivors—Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield, Barry Burton, and Captain Albert Wesker—take refuge in the nearby Spencer Mansion, unaware they have found themselves in the midst of a nightmare. Architect George Trevor designed a mansion for Ozwell Spencer, but was betrayed: his wife Jessica and 14-year-old daughter Lisa were used as test subjects for experiments with the Progenitor virus. George himself died in the traps of his own creation, and his diaries are scattered throughout the mansion. Now Lisa Trevor is an invulnerable monster, forever wandering the corridors, wearing her mother's skin on her face. Over 30 years of experimentation (including an injection of the Nemesis parasite), her body developed a unique mutation, from which Umbrella scientists would later isolate the G-virus. At the mansion, the team splits up: Jill helps Barry, and Chris helps medic Rebecca Chamber, who joined the team just a month ago. Rebecca revealed that their helicopter had been forced to make an emergency landing. In a laboratory hidden beneath the mansion, Albert Wesker reveals his role as an Umbrella agent. It turns out he was the one who started singing in Jill's cell. It also transpires that Wesker killed Enrico (Bravo's captain). He activates the Tyrant's bioweapon (T-002) to eliminate witnesses, but the monster kills him. The survivors activate the complex's self-destruct system. The final battle takes place on the helipad, where pilot Brad drops a flare gun, allowing the mutated Tyrant to be finished off. The mansion explodes, but the survivors manage to escape the blast wave.

Not much is known about Redfield's early life, except that he and Claire lost their parents at some point before 1998. At the age of seventeen, Chris joined the Air Force in the United States, where he demonstrated good combat skills as a military pilot. There he managed to make friends with Barry Burton, who served with him in the unit. At times, however, Redfield clashed with senior officers because of his strong convictions, leading to his suspension for insubordination. In 1996, Redfield was infiltrated into the elite S.T.A.R.S. Police Squad, a special law enforcement unit in Raccoon City. Chris was a member of Team Alpha as a co-pilot and gunner, the latter of which gave him a rank in the group. In the S.T.A.R.S. squad, Chris met his partner from Alpha - Jill Valentine, with whom they formed a strong partnership. Chris worked collaboratively with Burton, who also transferred to the unit, as well as with his commander Albert Wesker. In addition to them, Chris was friends with Joseph Frost and Forest Speier. In his spare time, Redfield trained his younger sister when she visited him, and at one point he gave her a gold lighter and his S.T.A.R.S. knife.
