Now, whereas Wesker might be the face of evil, the cause of literally everything in the long-running video game canon can be traced all the way back to the Umbrella Corporation. Founded from the pharmaceuticals division in the eights by Oswell E. Spencer, James Marcus and Edward Ashford the legacy, or be it curse has never lifted from the world.

After it went defunct in 2004, bioweapons started to leak on the world stage and other former higher-up members, such as the Wesker’s started to claim the leftover assets. The ones not disclosed to the world even after the Corporation was dissolved.

But in 2007, Umbrella was reborn.

Now seemingly switching over to the good side, Blue Umbrella is working alongside Chris Redfield and the BSAA to help clean up bio-terror around the globe. So in RE Village will they accompany Chris as he is seemingly after old Umbrella sites, or will they have a darker role to play? One thing for sure is, they won’t just feature for a couple of seconds in the ending cutscene again.

Capcom doesn’t just reintroduce something like this for a T-shirt.
