Resident Evil Remakes Canonicity

As we know the RE remakes are No-canon cause they were stated to be from alternative universes.

Therefore porfiles like William Birkin should have info from the canon games to the story aka the originals.

In the remake Sherry is free of the G virus, but she was never free if the g virus, this is a contradiction with RE6, It is Annette who states this fact looking at the monitor with the results of Sherry's exam.

Ada NEVER fell off the platform, her continuity in the franchise is from Leon B where she saves Leon from the T-103 and has her continuity in UC Deaths door.

Another minor example, The file Leon and Ada in RE6 describs the the events from the original RE2, Sherry tells Jake that Leon saved her, he indeed saved her because he was the one who takes Sherry out of the lab and put her in train. This didn't happen in the Reimaginin, Leon only meets Sherry when she was already inside the train.

In RE6 when Ada is about to save Sherry and Jake she She sarcastically says "I'm going to return the kindness your parents gave me"

Of course, Annette almost killed her by shooting her , and William almost ripped her head off in the Cable Car and almost ripped her arm off in the train.

this doesn't happen in Reimagining, Ada doesn't even meet William. There are a lot more details but RE:2 has continuity problems , the events don't fit the continuity of the franchise and so it's not canon, this is exactly what was said especiallyby Pete the producer, it's a Re-imagining, and revisiting is the same as reimagining , RE: 2 does the same as Shattered Memories did.

Biohazard RE:2 IS NOT CANON and doesn't fit the main plot. Biohazard 2 with Its events is the Canon game with Claire A / Leon B for the closest canon with some additional information.
 
If the remakes are stated to take place in an alternate timeline, there could be different versions of some of those various characters if it's different enough.
 
I concur, the remakes are too different in so many regards, almost entirely new things in some cases.
 
They aré definitely NOT the same timeline as the original games but also they are a re-interpretation (Stated by Capcom himself) of the canon events so we should go with Profiles for the main timeline characters.
 
Not really sure if feats would get affected by this at all TBH. They'd still scale to the feats done in RE4 and later.
 
We are separating different versions of a character due to the different canon.

RE2 ramake is no canon to the main continuity
 
I know but RE1 Remake is not canon to the following entires in the saga at difference with the original RE which is the true canon fisrt part.

So the feats of the Remake are to be considered invalid or put in a different key?
 
Then i guess we would have to make different keys.

And about RE0, since the RE1 Remake is going to count as an alternative version then the same would be applied with the former, RE0 does had more plot/character similiarities with the Remake rather than the Original, especially if we are going to still consider the Umbrella Chronicles (or at least certain parts) as canon to the Remakes.

I mean, in the Original Rebecca in RE1 did say that she has take refuge to the Mansion right after the helicopter had landed, when in RE0 Bravo Team split in search of evidence.
 
It makes sense also yes UC is canon to the remakes.

The problem Is the scaling chain For example Némesis from Original RE3 is Small Building level scaling from feats of the RE2 Remake

Like it was say before, Nemesis and other characters will get a key for their Remake counterpart.
 
We should start revising the Tyrants.

Shouldnt OG speed be looked at first? Since the supersonic speed comes from the first REmake.


though I'm curious about dismissing that as non canon since I do believe nothing is contradicted and only Re2 make was stated to be a reimagining.
 
The feats don't really look any higher than the remake calcs IMHO
 
I agree. Remakes always supplant the originals unless they are directly stated to be separate continuities. This also applies to FFVII Remake. It makes less sense for RE than FF, but whatever, if that's what Capcom wants.
