Infinite Darkness is a separate project from Netflix’s live-action Resident Evil show that is in the works…

Netflix accidentally unleashed a surprise announcement late last week – the streaming service’s Twitter account in Portugal let slip that a CG Resident Evil series was on the way! Netflix tried to take down the tease for the series asap, but the internet was too fast, and in the end they decided to just come out and confirm that the show, called Infinite Darkness, was actually happening.

Following the leads of Capcom’s Resident Evil 2, Claire Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy, and unconnected (at least, as far as we know) with Netflix’s other, live-action Resident Evil series, this animated project is set to arrive next year, and your first look at it lies below…

Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness will be streaming sometime in 2021. We’ll update you when we have more details.
