The teaser trailer for the upcoming animated movie, "Resident Evil: Death Island" has been released.
The trailer features some of the most beloved characters of the popular video game franchise – Leon S. Kennedy, Chris Redfield, and Jill Valentine.
The footage also reveals the game-inspired creatures that’ll be part of the upcoming movie and a giant subaquatic creature that looks a lot like Del Lago, one of the most memorable bosses of Resident Evil 4, which starred Leon as the protagonist.
"Resident Evil: Death Island" is the fourth animated feature developed in partnership with the game franchise’s creator, Capcom.
The movie is part of the Prime Continuity, which encompasses all the main games, the "Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness" Netflix series, and the previous animated movies "Degeneration", "Damnation", and "Vendetta".
"Resident Evil: Death Island" follows D.S.O. agent Leon S. Kennedy on a mission to rescue Dr. Antonio Taylor from kidnappers, when a mysterious woman thwarts his 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.
"Resident Evil: Death Island" will be released this Summer.
