Hi everyone I'm Jack Red, I already know Capcom did this officially but I still wanted to do it. A lot of fans including myself are strict about how exactly to go about such a crazy time line. Thankfully this is far from some of the most confusing game series. Today I am here to cover the entire Resident Evil time line. I won't be covering the movies since those are mostly straight forward & not faithful to it's source material. I will include things from some spin off games in this blog.
Of course I will start with the main time line. This will take some research for those relatively new or those confuse about the order of events. Also I will say only the most important key parts of each game's story. Otherwise we will be here all day or possibly up to three.
Caution this will be a lengthy blog. Please take as many breaks you will need as you continue reading. I hope in me shorting it down does help things a little bit.
I haven't played any of REVII's dlcs yet. As soon as I do, I will edit them into this blog. Also I will do a quick follow up on remaining parts of the game time line.
Main Series Time Line
1. One day prior to Resident Evil
S.T.A.R.S. Bravo was tasked with investigation the Arklay Forest. Rebecca Chambers is the newest recruit that ends up teaming up with Billy Coen. A man sentenced to death that was being transported. It turns out Dr. Marcus got revived inside his Queen Leech while developing the T-Virus. Billy gets a free pass to live his life. Rebecca goes to the Spencer Mansion shortly afterwards.
2. Resident Evil the true horror begins
No word from S.T.A.R.S. Bravo caused S.T.A.R.S. Alpha to find the other team while investigating. A handful of S.T.A.R.S. Alpha got inside the Spencer Mansion. The deeper Chris & Jill went, the more they realized Umbrella was behind everything. It turns out their captain Wesker wanted to clear his tracks of both Umbrella & S.T.A.R.S. for good. In the end only five members of S.T.A.R.S. with Rebecca being the solo survivor of Bravo escaped.
3. A few months later the event that shocked the world
One point of view was Jill a former member of S.T.A.R.S. had to survive a city wide crisis. This was made worse when a unique Tyrant called Nemesis tracking any remaining S.T.A.R.S. members. Thanks to a former Umbrella soldier Carlos Oliveria & her old friend Barry Burton. Jill just within a few seconds barely escaped the city before the nuke sent by the US government hit.
I should point out the first half of RE3 takes place before RE2. The remaining half of RE3 is after RE2.
Another point of view was a rookie police officer Leon S. Kennedy & Chris's sister Claire had to survive. Both being stalked by a mutated Dr. Birkin & Tyrant-103 a successor to Tyrant-002. Leon got help from spy named Ada while Claire had Dr. Birkin's daughter Sherrie. This led to Ada almost dying to escape with a sample of the G-Virus. A similar scenario for Hunk aka Mr. Death to also escape with a G-Virus sample. Everybody found their own way of escaping the city prior to it's destruction.
A forgotten point of view was a group of survivors went through all kinds of Hell. Each person had a unique skill set that could've made them the ultimate team. Sadly in the end all eight of them died during the Raccoon City event.
4. A few months later in two main Umbrella locations
Late December of 1998, Claire Redfield got caught while intruding in Umbrella's French base of operations. She got transported to Rockford Island.
