Okay, so Infinite Darkness wasn’t exactly the best Resident Evil film. Still, Sony’s not giving up, as they’ve announced a new animated film in Resident Evil: Death Island! IGN was able to snag the official teaser for the film, which is coming this Summer worldwide (excluding Japan).
Directed by Eiichiro Hasumi (“Assassination Classroom”) from a screenplay by Makoto Fukami (“Psycho-Pass”), Death Island is a sequel to Resident Evil: Vendetta. D.S.O. agent Leon S. Kennedy is on a mission to rescue Dr. Antonio Taylor after he was kidnapped. However, a mysterious woman blocks his initial pursuit.
Meanwhile, B.S.A.A. agent Chris Redfield is investigating a zombie outbreak in San Francisco, where the cause of the infection cannot be identified. The only thing the victims have in common is that they all visited Alcatraz Island recently. Following that clue, Chris and his team head to the island, where a new horror awaits them.
No word yet on if Death Island will be getting its own drink, but we’ll see.
Meanwhile on the game side, Capcom is prepping for the release of the Resident Evil 4 remake, which is set to arrive March 24, 2023 for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series.
