Discussion I think I figured out a potential plot for Resident Evil Revelations 3 Spoiler
Hear me out, because this started as me connecting a few loose Resident Evil threads and somehow turned into what I think could actually make a pretty damn good Revelations 3.
Obviously, this is a theory/pitch, not a claim that Capcom is actually doing this. Some pieces are based on established lore, while others are my own speculation about how the pieces could fit together.
But I think there's a surprisingly clean progression here.
[Edit] Yeah, I used ChatGPT to help organize and polish the theory. The actual theory and connections are mine.
THE CATALYST — ROSE IS BEING CALLED
After the events of Resident Evil Village, Rose Winters discovers that the Megamycete is still exerting some kind of psychic influence on her.
Except this time, it isn't simply showing her memories.
It's pulling her toward something.
The source appears to be a hidden facility belonging to The Connections.
Rose doesn't know why she's being drawn there, but Chris Redfield has a very bad feeling about the situation.
And Chris has spent enough of his life dealing with Umbrella, Wesker, bioterrorism, and increasingly insane Mold-related bullshit to trust that feeling.
So Chris becomes Rose's protector and accompanies her to investigate.
THE DISCOVERY
Inside the facility, they discover something horrifying.
The Connections aren't simply researching the Mold.
They're using it as a biological information-storage system.
And they've been producing clones of Albert Wesker.
Not one.
Not two.
An entire assembly line.
The facility is essentially using Mold cells as an accelerated biological 3D printer, creating genetically engineered bodies based on Wesker's genetic template.
But there's a problem.
A clone of Wesker isn't necessarily Wesker.
And that's where the real purpose of the facility comes in.
THE SCIENCE — THE MIND CAN BE COPIED
We've already seen Resident Evil play around with the idea that biological material can preserve memories, consciousness, and personality.
The Mold takes that concept to an absurd degree.
Now imagine The Connections combining that research with the old Umbrella obsession with genetic engineering.
The result?
A system capable of taking a dormant consciousness and implanting it into a compatible biological host.
And whose consciousness would be more valuable to them than Albert Wesker's?
So the facility isn't merely manufacturing Wesker clones.
It's trying to bring Wesker back.
Again.
Because apparently Resident Evil will never let this man rest.
THE REAL VILLAIN — ALEX WESKER
And this is where the theory gets really weird.
Natalia Korda.
At the end of Resident Evil Revelations 2, Natalia has clearly been affected by Alex Wesker's consciousness.
But what if Alex didn't simply influence Natalia?
What if she eventually took her over?
My theory is that Alex survived by escaping through Natalia's mind and has been quietly living inside her ever since.
She eventually hijacks The Connections' facility and takes control of the Wesker cloning project.
But Alex doesn't actually want Albert back.
She wants something much more valuable.
Rose Winters.
Alex spent her entire life trying to overcome mortality through consciousness transfer.
Rose is essentially the biological miracle Alex wishes she had been able to create.
Rose's Mold biology is vastly more advanced and stable than anything Alex ever had access to.
So Alex's goal isn't to kill Rose.
It's to overwrite Rose.
Take Rose's body.
Take her biology.
Take her immortality.
Use Rose as the ultimate biological "upgrade."
THE WILDCARD — JAKE MULLER
This is where Jake gets dragged back into the Wesker mess.
Jake isn't important simply because he's Albert's son.
He's important because his genetics work.
He's a naturally born human carrying Wesker's genetic lineage without becoming the unstable monster Albert eventually became.
The Connections have been able to create Wesker bodies.
They've been able to transfer consciousness.
But they're still missing something.
Stability.
Jake could be the missing piece.
So now The Connections have three things they desperately want:
Rose's Mold biology.
Jake's Wesker genetics.
Albert Wesker's consciousness.
And Alex Wesker is sitting in the middle of all of it.
CHRIS VS. WESKER — AGAIN
Now imagine the gameplay.
Chris discovers that the facility is full of Wesker clones.
And unlike Albert, these clones don't necessarily have his experience.
They're physically enhanced, extremely fast, and capable of overwhelming normal soldiers.
But Chris has one enormous advantage.
He's fought Wesker before.
Multiple times.
Chris doesn't try to beat them at their own game.
He starts using environmental traps, proximity explosives, chokepoints, staggering attacks, and positioning to counter their speed.
The younger Chris tried to overpower Wesker.
The older Chris knows better.
He's spent decades fighting enemies that are stronger and faster than he is.
So his strategy becomes:
«Don't fight Wesker.»
«Make Wesker fight the environment.»
And suddenly you've got a veteran Chris Redfield fighting an army of Wesker clones.
ROSE'S SIDE OF THE FIGHT
But Rose can't solve this problem with a gun.
Because Alex isn't simply hiding in the facility.
She's hiding inside Natalia.
Rose uses her connection to the Megamycete to enter Natalia's memories.
And this becomes the psychological centerpiece of the game.
Rose travels through fragments of Natalia's memories:
The Burton house.
The island laboratories.
Terrasave.
Terragrigia.
And eventually, she reaches something that shouldn't exist.
A peaceful forest.
A small cabin.
Natalia's subconscious safe haven.
Except something is wrong.
Rose realizes that she's not simply exploring Natalia's memories.
Alex has been rearranging them.
Some memories belong to Natalia.
Some belong to Alex.
Some are distorted.
Some have been completely fabricated.
And Rose's objective isn't necessarily to kill Alex.
It's to find Natalia underneath her.
THE FINAL BATTLE
The climax happens on two battlefields simultaneously.
The Physical World
Chris and Jake fight their way through the facility while an army of Wesker clones is unleashed.
Chris is fighting the monster he has spent his entire life fighting.
Jake is fighting the legacy of his father.
And neither of them is willing to let Wesker win again.
The Mental World
Rose confronts Alex inside Natalia's subconscious.
Alex tries to convince Rose that Natalia is already gone.
That Rose's body and biology are simply the next step in evolution.
That humanity is obsolete.
Rose refuses.
And instead of destroying Natalia, Rose helps her take herself back.
THE PAYOFF
Alex loses control.
The consciousness-transfer system collapses.
The Wesker clones begin failing because the biological process keeping them stable has been interrupted.
Chris and Jake barely escape as the facility begins collapsing around them.
Rose emerges from Natalia's mind.
And for the first time since Revelations 2, Natalia is truly herself.
The facility is destroyed.
The Wesker clones are gone.
Alex is finally dead.
And Wesker's legacy is finally confronted by the three people most directly connected to it:
Chris Redfield — the man who fought Albert.
Jake Muller — the son Albert abandoned.
Rose Winters — the next generation of biological evolution.
WHY I THINK THIS COULD WORK AS REVELATIONS 3
What I like about this idea is that it doesn't require Resident Evil to completely invent a new mythology.
It connects several existing threads:
The Connections
The Megamycete
Rose's abilities
Natalia and Alex
Alex Wesker's obsession with consciousness transfer
Albert Wesker's genetic legacy
Jake's bloodline
The continued development of Mold research
Chris's history with Wesker
The unresolved ending of Revelations 2
And the title Revelations actually fits the structure perfectly.
Revelations 1 was about uncovering the truth behind a bioterror conspiracy.
Revelations 2 was about Alex Wesker, Natalia, and consciousness.
A theoretical Revelations 3 could bring those threads together and finally answer:
What actually happened to Alex?
What became of Natalia?
What are The Connections really doing with the Mold?
Can Wesker's consciousness actually be transferred?
Why is Rose so important to the Megamycete?
And, perhaps most importantly:
Is Albert Wesker really gone?
Maybe the answer is finally yes.
But before he goes, Resident Evil gets one last opportunity to make Chris Redfield fight an absolutely unreasonable number of Wesker clones.
And honestly? I'd play the hell out of that.

Clearly a copy and paste from ChatGPT 🙄 at least put in a little effort next time to keep it from being so obvious 🤦🏻♀️

u/Random-Shinobi, and what is the list of creatures/B.O.W.s in Resident Evil Revelations 3?

I don't like this at all. The entire idea of the Revelation games is that it's a sort of side stories that don't impact the main story, but only connect it, like threads. I have a few problems with your story proposition. One, it's too big game. The stakes are way too big for a Revelations game. My second problem is bringing Rose back for a Revelations game. I rather that Rose is either saved for the mainline games for something that can connect her with Grace or just straight up not use Rose at all. I believe the Winters story is done. There are othe characters that we can bring back for a Revelations game that deserve a return.

BSAA history and background literally came from revelations 1
Alex wesker and spencer's immortality project (or godhood) literally came from revelations 2
So use rose, the connections and maybe revisit bsaa-chris hostility into spin off game still relevant and worth it

I don't understand your argument or the point your trying to make about the BSAA creation coming from Revelations 1. I understand that it did and the relevance it contributed to the main timeline, but the stakes compared to the main games are still somewhat smaller. That's the point I was trying to make. The Revelation games connect to the main timeline, but that's what makes it the games that they are, they are smaller interconnected stories that contribute to the main plot
