esther eggs and secrets for this list
we'll be looking at various hidden
secrets and easter eggs scattered
throughout the Resident Evil series
well if cameras killed those things I'd
be sent number 20 Leon's lost jacket
Resident Evil 4 separate ways anyway you
know what this is all about those of us
who played Resident Evil 4 we'll
remember how Leon arrived in this rural
Spanish town wearing a brown jacket the
same jacket that is used in all of the
games promotional material however at
the end of the first chapter Leon is
captured and knocked unconscious and
when he awakes his jacket is nowhere to
be found and isn't seen for the rest of
the game unless you played a dazz
separate waste campaign in this campaign
when ADA visits the village a second
time she can come across a villager
guarding the metal gate who is wearing
Leon's jacket thanks for not getting it
back ADA it's a sweet jacket number 19
Mikhail's pierogies Resident Evil 2
someone's got to get word to the
authorities we need reinforcements to
save the city the Resident Evil series
loves calling back to prior games and
the Resident Evil 2 remake is no
different after opening the shutters and
escaping the police station parking
garage with ADA you'll find that the
road has been destroyed at near a very
bright gun store across from this gun
store and directly beside the broken
road is a restaurant called Mikhail's
pierogies this is a reference to Mikael
Victor the ubc s commanding officer in
resident evil 3 did he have time to open
up a pierogi shop in between battling
biohazards oddly enough this Easter Egg
also appears in Resident Evil three
remake while Mikael is walking around
number 18
civilians must remove dog excrement
resident evil 3 nemesis
one of the weirdest yet funniest
Resident Evil Easter eggs can be found
in the og Resident Evil 3 while getting
the future compass you can read a plaque
with words that look like Latin however
this is not Latin it's an English
sentence written backwards if you read
the words back to front the plaque
States civilians must remove dog
excrement it's nice to see Raccoon City
so dedicated to clean streets and
civilian upkeep but did they have to
word it in such a bizarre manner and why
on a plaque wouldn't a simple science of
ice number 17 read hunter resident evil
the hunter is an old-school resident
evil enemy whose appearance has changed
over the years with differences in later
titles these were BL W is created by
umbrella that appeared as giant humanoid
reptiles and like many reptiles they are
green and scaly however a red version
could supposedly be found in the 2002
remake
according to Resident Evil wiki they
typically appear when another hunter is
already in the room although one can be
found in the tearoom after obtaining the
helmet key some fans have speculated
this may be a reference to the sweepers
in code Veronica but who knows number 16
Red Rum Resident Evil 2
[Music]
the Easter eggs aren't all dog poop and
references to past games some of them
pay homage to the horror masters and two
of those masters are Stephen King and
Stanley Kubrick in the hallway section
of Resident Evil 2 you can see a boarded
up window with the word Redrum
spray-painted on the wood this is an
obvious reference to the shining for
those who don't remember or haven't seen
the film in which case how dare you
Danny writes Redrum on a door when when
he looks into a mirror she realizes that
Redrum is murder in Reverse we're glad
that Raccoon City police had time to
spray painted on the windows but why
number 15 Frank East resident evil 2
it's Frank Frank West remember that name
cuz the whole world's gonna know it in
three days Dead Rising and Resident Evil
share a lot in common they're both made
by Capcom they both involve zombies and
well that's about it but hey those two
are pretty strong links and it seems
like Capcom referenced their iconic
shopping mall zombie game in the
Resident Evil 2 remake in one of the
storefront windows is a poster reading
Frank East freelance photographer for
hire this is an obvious reference to
Frank West the freelance photographer
protagonist of Dead Rising he's covered
wars you know and zombie outbreaks on
freelance you know go on the battlefield
alone no crew number fourteen Resident
Evil 6 is a disaster resident evil 3 how
about this you heard of this
what is that you really don't remember
anything do you
it didn't take long for fans to discover
Easter eggs in the Resident Evil 3 demo
and one of these Easter eggs could be a
potshot at Resident Evil 6 a streamer
named aesthetic gamers spotted an
in-game poster for a fictional movie
called disaster they thought the poster
shared a lot in common with a specific
poster for Resident Evil 6 including the
Lightning and color scheme the pose of
the protagonist and the shadowed
left-hand in the foreground is this
Capcom's way of admitting that Resident
Evil 6 was a disaster it could be a
stretch as some of the Twitter comments
seems to suggest but you can't deny that
there are a lot of connections between
the two number 13 Brad's recruitment
poster Resident Evil 2 the original
Resident Evil - contained an Easter Egg
involving a zombified Brad vicars if you
made your way to the police station
without picking up any items or weapons
you would find the zombified Brad
wandering the underground tunnel
unfortunately the remake does not
contain zombie Brad though it is
revealed why in the Resident Evil three
remake in its place is an RPD poster
advertising an upcoming job fair in
hiring seminar onset poster is Brad
Vickers in is happier and more human
days complete with his signature yellow
body armor it's nice to see old friends
again even if it's just in poster form
number 12 Dino crisis poster resident
evil 3 nemesis watching plotting now if
there's one thing we learned from this
list its that Capcom really loves
putting Easter eggs on miscellaneous
posters a dino crisis poster can be
spotted in the hospital lobby in
resident evil 3 Dino Crisis is a famous
video game that was developed by Capcom
and released on July 1st 1999 just two
months prior to the release of Resident
Evil 3 the games themselves share a lot
in common including a female protagonist
a similar control and camera scheme the
ability to mix chemicals to craft
ammunition and an unstoppable monster
that relentlessly pursues the player
they're basically one in the same
your precious creation is nothing more
than another weapon to be misused number
11 capcom throwback posters resident
evil 3 my guys have converted some
subway cars into a shelter yep were
still on the posters for the Resident
Evil three remake Capcom really went
above and beyond as there are so many
non subtle posters plastered around
Raccoon City a collage of comic book
covers includes the infamous bad box art
version of Mega Man and another titled
fighting story which features evil Ryu
from the Street Fighter series on the
cover there's a poster advertising a
scientific forum led by dr. light and
dr. wily the mentor and then tag inist
from the Mega Man series respectively a
movie poster that resembles Top Gun is
titled air combat 1942 which is a
reference to a classic Capcom
shoot-'em-up and one of the toy shops is
selling a game called monster shooter an
obvious reference to monster hunter who
and that's only the Capcom references
number 10 Shinji Mikami's message
Resident Evil
getting through a survival horror game
is tough enough getting through it with
every enemy being invisible sounds like
an impossible task if you do manage to
get through the 2002 Resident Evil
remake on the infamous invisible enemy
mode your effort and skill don't go
unnoticed there's a rewarding message at
the completion screen left by the master
and director himself Shinji Mikami he
commends you on your performance and
thanks you for putting the time and
effort into the game number 9 Alisa
Ashcroft Resident Evil 7 biohazard
[Music]
remember Alyssa Ashcroft no well then
you missed out on some great Resident
Evil games the outbreak series is
criminally underrated and we're still
hoping we'll get a remastered version
sometime in the future one of the
featured playable characters was a
reporter by the name of Alisa Ashcroft
and that looks like she survived the
Raccoon City outbreak in Resident Evil 7
you can find a newspaper that has a
headline referencing the events
currently transpiring in the Baker
family home and the story is written by
journalist
Alissa Ashcroft herself as a newspaper
reporter I had been involved with
bizarre
but this time I had to learn the hard
way that my past experiences were
useless number 8 Capcom arcade games
Resident Evil 6 there's nothing quite
like seeing video games within other
video games and Capcom seems to have
perfected the art of self references in
The Mercenaries game mode in Resident
Evil 6 there's a Capcom arcade in the
urban chaos map and it features a ton of
Capcom's retro games on show our titles
such as Sun Sun and star gladiator while
you can't play any of these titles
unfortunately it is still a cool insight
into their library from back in the day
also ghosts and goblins is hard enough
without zombies interrupting you
[Music]
number seven ghost sightings Resident
Evil 7 beginning our you stick with me
before Resident Evil 7 was released
players had a lengthy demo that hinted
at the mystery that would unfold in the
main game fans were divided due to the
first-person perspective and seemingly
more supernatural elements well when a
freaking ghost flashes before your eyes
in a dark plantation who could argue
with them while the main game remained
faithful to the mythos established in
the Resident Evil universe the ghosts in
the demo were thrown in there just to
scare the bejesus out of us number 6 the
playground Resident Evil 6 despite some
good set pieces and action sequences
Resident Evil 6 failed to deliver on the
suspense mystery and survival horror
fans had come to love from the earlier
entries and some say this playground
scene was the nail in the coffin
thankfully Resident Evil 7 managed to
turn the series back around and we can
appreciate the playground in a different
light seeing Macho Man Chris Redfield go
down a slide with a face of extreme
intensity is sure to get a chuckle out
of you whether it's genuine or out of
embarrassment for the game number 5
zombie Wesker Resident Evil
unfortunately the zombified Wesker can
only be found in the Sega Saturn port of
the first game in a mode unique to the
platform Wesker the recurring antagonist
who rarely takes off his sunglasses gets
a taste of his own medicine here the
battle game mode features an array of
different locations from the game and
you're tasked with eliminating all the
monsters to progress to the next stage
one stage has you facing off against an
infected Wesker and he's a hell of a lot
stronger than regular enemies better
whip out the big guns for your former
stars captain number four film D and
rising rookie Resident Evil 2 it really
amazes us how people were able to
discover some of this stuff in Resident
Evil 2 you can find a hidden picture of
Rebecca chambers from the first game in
Wesker's desk you don't find it by
inspecting the desk and opening the
drawer like a reasonable person know you
have to examine it 50 times before it
gives you the photo the picture features
Rebecca in sportswear and that
particular costume can be bought as DLC
for Resident Evil 0 HD rematch
this Easter egg was famously brought
back for the Resident Evil to remake
only this time you don't need to press
the same button 50 times like an
absolute madman number three
Regina's outfit resident evil 3 nemesis
that poster we mentioned earlier wasn't
the only Dino Crisis reference in the
original resident evil 3 no in this game
you could also have Jill where Regina's
costume Dino Crisis was basically
Resident Evil with Dinosaurs so it won't
be such a jarring transition we use the
word costume lightly as it looks like
you're playing as Regina herself the
character's hair color even changes
despite the change in appearance there
are no dinosaurs to be found here maybe
now that the remake is out
we might get a Dino Crisis remake to
Capcom number two classic camera angles
Resident Evil 5 lost in nightmares
static camera angles were employed
masterfully in the earlier Resident Evil
titles they invoked a sense of dread and
fear of the unknown as you didn't know
what lurked around the corner or behind
you so they always kept you on your toes
despite Resident Evil 4 being a
masterpiece it took some fans a while to
adjust to the new direction of the
series but for Resident Evil 5 its lust
and nightmares DLC featured a hidden
easter egg that addressed that by
allowing players to activate a static
camera for their character how do you
activate it oh it's very straightforward
just talk to the front door until it
responds with a question mark yes I am
getting older
what more video game content check out
our gaming channel mojo plays and
discover games and ideas who never knew
existed with more lists breakdowns in
our latest series arcade roulette Justin
and John are in there's a lot of things
being ripped off in this game number one
shooting the camera Resident Evil 2
thanks to the fixed camera angles you're
going to be firing off a few rounds
every now and then toward the direction
of the camera to stop the halt of
monsters if you're positioned in the
right area and aiming directly at the
camera with a shotgun equipped Shell's
seemingly cracked the screen when you
fire the screen
stays broken for a split second so if
you want to see it again you're going to
have to waste your ammo either use your
stockpiled ammo for your inevitable
fight with Birkin or to endlessly shoot
at the screen the choice is yours
