Following yesterday's Resident Evil 5: Alternative Edition announcements, here's a trailer for Lost in Nightmares, the first new episode to be released. Come back to the Spencer estate and be regaled with Chris and Jill's astute observations regarding cranks in the vid after the jump.

The upcoming Resident Evil: Afterlife sees the return of the cast from the last movie, welcoming Wentworth Miller to play Chris Redfield. Wouldn't be much of a Chris appearance if his ol' partner Jill isn't gonna be there for the ride, yes? A Tweet from none other than Milla Jovovich tells us that it's quite possible. Despite being a no-show in Extinction, Sienna Guillory may be coming back to play Jill Valentine.

The next Resident Evil movie, dubbed Resident Evil: Afterlife, has now been announced and production has begun in Toronto, Canada. Milia Jovovich will be returning as the overpowered, zombie-pwning Alice, while Claire Redfield will still be played by Ali Larter. The rest of the ol' crew will be meeting again on-set, but they will be joined by a new face - Wentworth Miller, who will play Chris Redfield.

Chris Redfield and his beloved guns will be gracing PC monitors in North America and Europe this September. If you've got the equipment, you can even see him and Sheva shoot some zombies up in glorious 3D. Details after the jump.

If these new ESRB listings prove to be correct, we may be seeing Solid Snake again on the PS3. It won't be Old Snake, though, but Metal Gear Solid-era Snake, and he'll even be bringing along pre-steroids Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine from before she had a dye job.

Capcom's Captivate09 event has revealed that Resident Evil Archives will indeed come out this June. Hey, it turns out that retailers got it right this time. No word yet on if it'll indeed ship in a bundle with Resident Evil Zero, but the name does suggest more than one game. Check out some details and screenshots after the jump.

Though not an entirely new concept, applying smell-technology to video games is damned cool - at least of course, until they start applying the same smelly tech to Resident Evil or some such. But anyway, yes, smell-tech is slowly wafting its way to video games, and a team from the University of Birmingham is doing just that!

The Resident Evil series has been known for unlockable alternate costumes for its playable characters. The latest in the franchise is no exception. Resident Evil 5 will be getting unlockable attires. Here we have screencaps from BioHazard 5, showing Sheva's unlockable attire. Whoever took these screenshots sure had some creative angles, making sure that we got all our bases covered (figuratively).

Ah, the plot thickens. The latest viral campaign episode for Resident Evil 5 is out and about, this time it's got Claire Redfield. What's she doing here, don't ask me. It's a viral clip and answers aren't all that a priority here. Let's hope finally getting to play the game does tie everything up though.

Fans managed to hack the Japanese demo of Resident Evil 5, revealing what may be a clue to Jill Valentine's role in the game. We'll tag it rumor for now, but if you don't like possible spoilers, better not go to the full article for details.
