15 Greatest Resident Evil Moments Ever
8. Wesker's Superpowers - Resident Evil Code: Veronica
It shouldn't really have been a surprise, considering the series literally deals with raising the dead.
And yet, seeing the former S.T.A.R.S captain, thought deceased, turn up on Rockfort Island was a bit of one.
The biggest reveal, however, was that not only is Wesker alive and kicking, but that he's in far better shape than before.
Turns out, Wesker had been injected with a Proto Virus prior to being stabbed. This enabled Wesker to cheat death and gain superpowers (because reasons, I suppose), setting out a burning desire to get revenge on Chris.
It caught many off guard, the sardonic "Greetings" as he introduces himself to an unsuspecting Claire, before those glowing eyes reveal a change in Wesker.
It's only later, in Antarctica, that we start to see the extent of his powers, as Chris bends a pipe on an unfazed Wesker.
It was a sort-of first for the series, resurrecting a key character without grossly mutating them into a boss fight.
The novelty didn't last long, but it was fun whilst it did.
