Dat RE4 village map. Where's RE7 Capcom? (Not asking for RE2make because that must be a ways off still).
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"
It's canon, although there's no story. But it's not a "what if" like ORC was.
It's set after RE6 (which was set in 2013). The premise is every time there's a biological incident corporations that want to become the next Umbrella send mercenaries where the incident happened to try and extract samples from viruses etc, which is the reason maps from previous games are reused.
Now why they would be sending mercenaries to RE4's village in 2013+ when the incident there happened in 2004, hell if I know.
Also in the west the game is called simply "Umbrella Corps" without the Resident Evil moniker, so I updated the title.

Perhaps canon-Leon didn't use the infinite-launcher & Chicago Typewriter to wipe every "ganado" off the map back in that semi-Spanish village so there's still some wandering around chanting that strange verse.
Even if that village was cut off from the rest of civilization and no one from the around areas bothered to check what's going on there, in RE5 Chris says "They're acting like those Ganados detailed in the Kennedy report." meaning the BSAA are well informed of what happened there. So if there were any BOWs roaming wouldn't the BSAA send their agents to clean the place?
Unless Leon lied in his report that he exterminated everything to get the "S" rating
But wait I see now that on the game's website it says this about the Majinis in the RE5 map:
Quote:
Majini
The Swahili word for devil, and the name given to the Kijuju inhabitants infected by the Plaga parasite. After the "accident," the Plagas survived extermination by living in the body of the survivors. The Majini in this game are a lesser version of the ones in RE5, lacking the awareness and intelligence of their predecessors, but they are just as fierce and dangerous.
OMG the BSAA are NOOBS They didn't send a team to clean the area??? In so many years after RE5?! Siiiiiiiigh......
Anyway, another example of a map, from the game's website:
Quote:
This former Tricell headquarters was devastated by a bioterror attack by a rival company. Though now classified as a quarantined zone, this place still holds many secrets related to the development of biological weapons. Your mission is to access the transmission equipment and fend off the creatures long enough for the data to be transmitted.
So for example we didn't know exactly what happened to Tricell after the deaths of Travis and Excella in RE5 other than that by the 2011-set REvelations 2 Tricell was gone for good, but this implies some rival company attacked them probably when they were at their most vulnerable.
This is interesting, regarding the Cerberuses on the Tricell map:
Quote:
Cerberus
An Umbrella bioweapon developed by intentionally infecting Dobermans with the T-Virus. Whoever is behind the events of Umbrella Corps has brought them back for as-of-yet unknown purposes.
That is.. confusing. We have established it's just companies sending their mercenaries but now it says someone is behind the events of...? what??
edit this explains the RE4 map:
Quote:
Ganados
Ganados, from the Spanish Ganado (meaning "cattle"), are humans who have been infected with the Plaga parasite. After the evil schemes of the Los Iluminados were put to an end, the Ganados were eliminated and the village closed off. However, villagers wanting to return home broke through the quarantine zone, and it is thought that they fell victim to a wild form of the Plaga that remained in the environment.

Last minute delays are so weird. The game was releasing in 5 days.. do you mean to tell me you didn't know you would be needing more time until the last week???

This makes no sense if they insist the game takes place after RE6 Raccoon City got NUKED, hellooooooooooo?

Turns out these maps (and perhaps some more but not all as I understand) are part of a VR deathmatch simulation if you will. So that explains the state of Raccoon City in 2012-3. Here is a synopsis of the SP mode:
(inb4 spoilers )
Quote:
The player is a mercenary test subject "3A-7." What a shitty company to work for. Evidently some does take place in a simulator... others not. The village is mentioned as "where that organization got started." Someone referred to as "The Commander" is mentioned as being from the high ranks in the player's organization and observes the missions in the village in 2012.
"The way he talks about it... it's almost as if he was there when everything went down."
I think it's Albert Wesker. I hope not. The weakened Plaga Type 2 begins spreading in Kijuju on June 18, 2012. Abraham Jackson is The Experiment's lead researcher. He "disappears" while trying to look into the identity of the commander from the organization's DNA archives, and is replaced by Beatrice Bertrand.
"The subject's battle abilities are off the charts. Very reminiscent of the U.S.S. soldiers."
Seems like Subject 3A-7 might even be HUNK, and that's why the commander and other higher-ups are so interested in him. HUNK is referred to as the Grim Reaper and an advocate of CQBZ. The Raccoon City maps are confirmed to be recreations. The organization has "sponsors" watching The Experiment.
So far they've referenced two organizations, but the lack of elaboration makes discerning any actual information difficult. The Zombie Jammer is a development project funded by the Federation of Pharmaceutical Companies, like the GENESIS Scanner. We can discern from this that some of the federation's companies are the organization's trying to steal Umbrella's data, a fact which is hinted at in the BIO6 guidebook. So this game is continuing a plot point from Umbrella Chronicles.
The company decides to kill 3A-7 once the jammer has been perfected and because they can't have him "lowering the stock on BOWs", since they won't be seen as effective if a lone soldier can kill them so handily. So that phase of the experiment is to show off how threatening B.O.W.'s are. However, they specifically choose the Antarctic Base as his burial ground. So... I guess it's not a recreation?
"So 3A-7. What happens when you kill monster after monster? Eventually you become one of them. But it ends now. You'll be joining Alexia in eternal slumber here."
Okay, so by the end of The Experiment, you are not HUNK (you are "the new Grim Reaper") and Albert Wesker hasn't appeared or been mentioned. Ends on a very sudden and very flat note. Poor performance indeed, CAPCOM.
EDIT: The basic premise and the timeline events are canon (or at least can be taken as such, it affects nothing), but that's about it. Even the "Umbrella Corps" name itself is never mentioned or explained. Are they an actual unit? Whose unit are they? Etc. The commander is never identified despite hints to his connection to BIO4.
When they say "that organization got its start", I think they're referring to the fact that Wesker used the spoils of the BIO4 incident to take over Umbrella's rival company, becoming his organization. But there isn't so much as a word spoken about the actual identity of any organizations or companies. This is despite the logo of Shenya Pharmaceutical being in the last trailer, and the "Umbrella Corps" themselves being featured as Shenya's mercenaries in the Heavenly Island manga.
Just really shoddy all-round. I wonder how much of this was caused by the decision to rely on pseudo-nostalgic maps to boost sales. They even acknowledge that the maps differ in weird ways! I have no idea why 2015 was mentioned in the story premise because The Experiment merely takes place in a year from 2012-2013.
I do wonder if 3A-7 is the mercenary who corresponds with the female spy Julie in the manga.

It appears it might not be canon at all anymore. Originally they had developed a story but eventually it was moved to the side in favor of bringing back "nostalgic" maps from the old games. That's why I guess, supposedly, there are barely any explanations about who these organizations are, what they want, etc.
Nothing wrong with that, the game doesn't need a story at all, just saying.
Is Umbrella Corps canon in the Resident Evil franchise, since it has a minimum plot focused on training fields for soldiers?
Umbrella Corps is separate from the mainline story. Initially, despite not having a story campaign, we prepared various backdrops to set up the scene. However, we found that having a detailed background story only hampered our ability to implement all the gameplay elements that we wanted. As a result, we shifted focus away from having a detailed backstory.
Instead, we focused our attention on adding a lot of nostalgic maps into the game that long-time fans will enjoy jumping into. For example, a stage is modelled after the village section in Resident Evil 4. It’s not altered too much from the original landscape, but players can traverse it in various ways that they couldn’t before, such as climbing up walls and entering rooms that were unavailable in the past.
