What we know so far

Automatic note by LuaCat Games, built from what we know about the coverage (who reported it, how many sites, the story’s history) — not a translation or copy of the source.

This comes from IGN, which does its own reporting — for now, it's the only coverage. Worth remembering the scale here: Resident Evil changed what people expected from the genre back in 1996, and the bar stayed up. In the 30 days before this one, 74 other Resident Evil stories ran here.

Bottom line: Safe to take the main point — it's the fine detail that sometimes shifts later.
