Resident Evil 7: New DLC Trailer Confirms Chris Redfield

(spoilers for Resident Evil 7 main game)

Following the ending of Resident Evil 7, we are introduced to a strange man working for Umbrella by the name of “Redfield.” At the time, we have yet to know whether this man is really the Chris Redfield we’ve come to know from the previous installments or someone new entirely.

(These two don’t exactly look alike…)

In the upcoming Resident Evil 7 DLC “Not a Hero” we’ve been given a confirmation that yes we are playing as Chris Redfield from the gameplay trailer alone as his name is called out by a woman contacting him. As if the full name being called out isn’t enough alone, we are then shown Chris punching monsters that get in his way effortlessly in the head.

We don’t quite know the reasons why Chris is working for Umbrella, which are the bad guys of Resident Evil since the first installment. It could be possible that we are witnessing a different Umbrella that’s been newly formed. Hopefully, this free upcoming DLC will answer all these questions.

Not a Hero is scheduled for release on December 12, 2017.
