With over eight main games and countless films and television projects, the timeline of the franchise can be confusing. Resident Evil first debuted back in 1998 with the release of the first video game in the franchise, simply titled Resident Evil. That game would go on to spawn a juggernaut franchise that is still going strong today across film, TV, and games. Netflix has just dropped the latest instalment in the series, Resident Evil Infinite Darkness, which slots into the timeline. There are currently eight mainline games in the original series, with the eighth game Resident Evil: Village releasing earlier this year, 2021. Infinite Darkness takes place just after the events of Resident Evil: Degeneration and before Resident Evil 5.
