Why does Leon age and Jill doesn’t? Resident Evil explains
Some people get old and some don’t…
The explanation should be sought in the animated video Resident Evil: Death Islandwhich contains a rather confusing explanation. Its action takes place in Alcatraz and is set between the events of Resident Evil 6 and RE7. In animation, they play the first violin Jill Valentine, Claire Redfield and Rebecca Chambers and Leon Kennedy and Chris Redfield. Interestingly, however, Jill, Claire and Rebecca look as if they are completely impervious to the passage of time. Their image hasn’t changed at all since then RE 1–3. What is the plot justification for this?
Official profile Resident Evil Portal (i.e. a treasure trove of knowledge about the series run by Capcom) on the X website explains this T-Virus infection, which slowed down the aging process. We are talking about a situation resulting from an attack Nemesis In Resident Evil 3. He also suffered a similar fate Claire Redfieldwho got infected T-Phobos Virus In Resident Evil: Revelations 2a Rebecca Chambers was infected A-Virus in the movie Resident Evil: Vendetta.
Using the same logic, it turns out that Claire and Rebecca also owe their youthful appearance to them contact with deadly Umbrella viruses. However, some fans believe that we do not have to accept this answer, and the truth is completely different. In their opinion, it’s just that Capcom recycles graphics assets or he is reluctant to present older female heroines.
Resident Evil Requiem With 51-year-old Leon (the action takes place in 2028) will debut February 27, 2025 on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch 2.
