Personally I want to see Carlos, Sheva and Sherry come back for another game.

Especially Carlos since he literally hasn’t shown up since Raccoon City.

+1 for Sheva. :triumph:

I think they want Chris/Jill/Leon as the mascots of the franchise with Chris being the perfect muscle guy hero for the modern ‘miltary’ shooter audience Capcom has had trouble with pinning down since the SNES era.

Leon is the ‘pretty’ one with his looks and Jill is the changeling or Mario that fits in whatever.

Also doubles as strong female lead.

So they really want to bury the event huh
As if the cancellation of this year’s physical event wasn’t bad enough, alongside Sony pulling out a year prior

Leon also has the “advantage” of being in every RE animated movie. So yeah, I think Leon and Chris get pretty equal shine within their own franchise. In crossovers…that’s another story entirely.

People keep asking for Billy back, why would he come back? Dude is still an escaped felon, and is now an escaped felon that’s considered deceased by Rebecca’s official record. Unless you want an RE game about the two running from the law he really cannot come back.

This always irked me. You’d think someone with equal skills to Jill and is another survivor of Raccoon City would be pretty damn helpful inside the BSAA.

Not even a week ago they announced when next years event is going to be. So…no? They’re just wiping their hands of this years.

IGN is basically doing what everyone was hoping E3 would do.

I would LOVE to see Sheva in another Resident Evil, even as the main playable character. Easily one of the most underutilized characters in the franchise.

At this point I’m worried she was just your one time, token colored representation for the entire series. I guess narratively it makes sense for her to stay in Africa but, man it’d be nice to see a character like that take the role as the main protagonist.

Glad that other people want Sheva to come back and after RE3MAKE, Carlos earned his spot among the mainline cast.

On the villian side…

Bring Back the G.O.A.T.!!!

Her biggest issue is really…why call her (in the story) when you can call any of the other main protagonists instead? Who often will have their preferred partners already, or be put in a situation they have to use whoever is nearby. And this is considering that Jill is essentially “retired” and Claire only gets involved when she’s inevitably kidnapped by people who don’t know who the fuck she is.

Didn’t they have some goofy ass storyline in the files of RE5 about the Wesker Siblings project? I felt like they were goin for an MGS vibe and failed horribly, I could be wrong tho😂

It exists, but there’s only one other Wesker Sibling, Alex Wesker. It’s not really a MGS thing though as they aren’t clones.

Yeah…I think he and his sister were the only 2 that survived the experiments.

Wesker’s sister was an antagonist in the RE Revelation games.

But knowing RE, that fool has a clone somewhere plus his son Jake from RE6 is running around the world, and almost tapped grownup Sherry!!

There are many Wesker children, not just Albert and Alex but they’re all dead, but it’s been awhile since I played 5. Don’t quote me on it

No you’re correct, but because they’re all dead other than the two it wasn’t really worth mentioning.

Jake’s the only Wesker left and he’s not evil.
Don’t know if RE8 will bring him back since its Chris focused.
