The movie is set to follow Leon Kennedy as he is on a mission to rescue Dr. Antonio Taylor. However, a mysterious woman derails his plan. Meanwhile, Chris Redfield is investigating a bizarre and unidentifiable zombie outbreak in San Francisco. The only thing the victims seem to have in common is that they all visited Alcatraz Island.

Theย Resident Evilย CG movies first started withย Resident Evil: Degeneration.ย Usually, the films would follow fan-favorite characters Leon Kennedy, Claire Redfield, Jill Valentine, and Chris Redfield fighting against the zombie outbreaks. Occasionally, they would team up with other people, such as locals or other franchise characters. However, the Upcomingย Death Islandย movie makes itself different by featuring Chris, Leon, Claire, and Jill taking on the threat together.
Eiichiro Hasumi confirmed that the Residentย Evil: Death Islandย movie will be set in 2015. This would put the film in between the events ofย Resident Evil 6ย andย Resident Evil: Biohazard.ย It will also serve as a direct continuation of the previous CGI movie,ย Resident Evil: Vendetta.ย It was also important to note that while the movies have game tie-ins, they can be watched on their own with no prior knowledge. Along with Hasumi, Makoto Fukami will be credited as the movie’s producer.
