Character Analysis
(Avoiding Spoilers)
Grew up... as part of Project W. Because of his exceptional genes, Albert Wesker was kidnapped as a child as part of Umbrella Corporation Founder Oswell E. Spencer’s plan to create a new master race. He was the only child that survived the secret viral experimentations.
Living... in Africa. After the fall of Umbrella, Wesker relocated to Kijuju as part of his new bioterror plot with TRICELL Pharmaceuticals.
Profession... researcher for Umbrella. Although he briefly posed as leader of the S.T.A.R.S. special ops team, in reality Wesker works as a top researcher for the villainous Umbrella Corporation, developing increasingly horrifying viruses and bio-organic weapons.
Interests… conducting bioweapon experiments. Wesker enjoys pushing his research to the next level, no matter the human cost. He has sacrificed countless victims to perfect his Ouroboros project. He even tests viruses on himself, granting him numerous unstable superhuman abilities.
Relationship Status... uninterested. Wesker only cares about making himself a God. However, he will string women along who are clearly interested in him, like TRICELL executive Excella Gionne, if he thinks it will serve his own needs. Still, he did father an illegitimate child, Jake Muller.
Challenge... reshaping the world. Wesker wants to use his viruses to reshape the world until only the strong survive and thrive. As he says, “Every day, humans come one step closer to self-destruction! I’m not destroying the world, I’m saving it!” Of course, he also believes it is his right to be God in this new world.
Personality... calculating. Wesker operates from behind the scenes. He prefers to trick people into doing his dirty work, like Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine, or hire spies who just want to get paid, like Ada Wong. For goals as ambitious as his, he understands the time and planning they take.

is a remake of the 1996 game Resident Evil, the first installment in the Resident Evil video game series. The story takes place in 1998 near the fictional Midwestern town of Raccoon City where a series of bizarre murders have taken place. The player takes on the role of either Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine, S.T.A.R.S. agents sent in by the city to investigate the murders. Resident Evil was developed over the course of one year and two months as part of an exclusivity deal between Capcom and Nintendo. It was directed by Shinji Mikami, who also designed and directed the original Resident Evil. Mikami decided to produce a remake because he felt that the original had not aged well and that the GameCube's capabilities could bring the game closer to his original vision. The game retains the same graphical presentation, with 3D models superimposed over pre-rendered backgrounds. However, the quality of the graphics were vastly improved. The remake also features new gameplay mechanics, revised puzzles, additional explorable areas, a revised script, and new story details including an entire subplot cut from the original game. Upon release, Resident Evil received critical acclaim from video game journalists, who praised its graphics and improved gameplay over the original game. It is often described as one of the best, scariest, and most visually impressive entries in the Resident Evil series. Despite this, the game sold worse than expected and led Capcom to change the direction of the series to a more action-oriented approach. In 2008, the game was ported to the Wii, featuring a new control system. A high-definition version of the game was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One in 2015 to positive critical reception and commercial success.
