Advertise on podcast: The Resident Evil Podcast

The third entry into our RECollection series see's the team take a nostalgic look back at the final entry into the mainline classic trilogy that came out on the PlayStation 1. Perhaps more so than any of the others PSX entries, the original RE3 is notably different from its recent remake and for that reason many lament some of the legendary locations absent from the 2020 revision. As with this mini-cast, we recount our stories of acquisition and the sheer terror the Nemesis brought to the table!

Time to strap in as the podcast team reconvene to discuss the latest live-action film adaptation, this time with renowned horror writer-director Zach Cregger of Barbarian and Weapons fame taking the reins. As well as discussing in-depth everything we liked and didn't like, we address the controversies about the canon and lack of connections, why Cregger decided to go in this direction, the critical reception financial success, and just how his gamble seems to have paid off. We also have call-ins and opinions from the community and touch on the ongoing Biohazard 30th anniversary celebrations. There is also some burning Survival Unit news. Please enjoy.

Our 30th anniversary celebrations continues with a mini-cast featuring the all time classic - Resident Evil 2. Now heralded as one of the best survival horror games ever made, upon release not everyone on REP was quite on board with the series at this point and indeed for some, would come much later.  We now recollect our memories of first entering into the RPD, the intertwining narrative and admiring the sheer balls of Capcom to make something so grand, so new that took everything from the first game and improving upon it without relying on the same characters - in other words making a complete sequel.  Neptune's Killer Question also returns to round out this mini-cast special.

As Resident Evil turns 30 years old, REP presents a brand new series of mini podcasts celebrating the first 4 titles in the franchise in a new bitesize format.  Join the team as we RECollect that first tantalizing title and in doing so how we all got into the series in the first place. We look at the enduring legacy that the mansion incident laid for survival horror and why we all hold this game in such high regards. We hope everyone enjoys this mini REP - even Neptune's Biohazard Quiz has a condensed format!  Episode 1 is out now! Enjoy!

Way back in 2006, Capcom released Resident Evil Deadly Silence, a port of the original 1996 classic to celebrate 10 years of the franchise. Of course, Deadly Silence would also include the REbirth mode - a new way to play through the Spencer Mansion taking full advantage of the DS's hardware/gimmicks depending on your point of view! 20 years on STARS TyranT, Rombie and Neptune revisit this quirky (and now quite expensive) title to see how it holds up and celebrate all the new additions that make this title so unique. Yes, this is of course another excuse to discuss the OG game, and why not as we enter the 30th anniversary year, but rest assured all the touchscreen puzzles are assessed and memories of blowing into the rotting corpse of Richard are shared fondly! In the news we take a look at the new trailer for the Resident Evil film by Zach Cregger, and finish off with an RE DS themed quiz.

Welcome to REP's audio commentary for the third feature length CGI Film - Resident Evil Vendetta.  Hopes were high going into the original release of this film, the prologue seemed scary, Chris and Leon team up again and the further return of Rebecca Chambers pumped up the expectations of another bioweapon flick. Sadly this film did not impress at the time and with this commentary, many were returning for the first time. Join STARS TyranT, Neptune and a slightly poorly Rombie as we watch along this John Wick, Saw and of course Looney Tune inspired entry into the Biohazard franchise. Full details on how to listen along in the intro!

Another Resident Evil gets the remake treatment with its reveal at Summer Games Fest 2026. Rumours had been rife a week before the show and indeed kicking the presentation off was this 4 minute trailer highlighting Claire's investigation in Paris and subsequent capture. With a slightly new name, Resident Evil Veronica will be a reimagining of this beloved (but poor selling) classic title - and one that is very close to the hearts of a a few us on REP - not all! As such, this announcement has divided the team with some happy to see an early 3D title get that glorious RE Engine overhaul, with others perhaps less than enthusiastic shall we say?!! We pour over the trailer and discuss potential story changes and lore implications as a result. Please enjoy!

With Resident Evil Requiem now well and truly embedded in the fandom, we open up the floor to the REP Community with their comments and feedback on this explosive title.  As always, expect a mix of praise and criticism and analysis from the fans as Neptune, STARS TyranT and Rombie all react to points missed in previous podcasts or general commentary oh their time with Requiem.  We send our big thanks to everyone that called in as we sunset our coverage...until the DLC!

It's that time folks where the REP team convene to discuss all things lore as a result of Resident Evil Requiem. A candid discussion sees us break down the key story points, including Grace's origins and the secret cloning program, Spencer's motivations for adopting a child, what his objective really was, and the whole deal with Ark and Elpis. We also debate the differences between retcons and recontextualisations in the face of the reworked city's destruction and why Raccoon City has seemingly gone from a small, innocuous mid-western town to a sprawling metropolis 30 miles wide. What is Raccoon City Syndrome? How deep are The Connections really embedded in the series storyline? And just who were the contractors for Ark and what were they told? All this and more, dwells within. Enjoy.

Resident Evil Requiem is here! The first new original story in the franchise in 5 years sees Capcom take its boldest steps yet. A new protagonist and daughter to an Outbreak legend teaming up with series stalwart, Leon S. Kennedy. A mysterious virus affecting Raccoon City survivors and the return of zombies. Throw in a new style zapping system, optional gameplay perspectives and the apparent harmony of the classic survival horror of RE7 and the survival action of RE4 - how could this possibly gel? Join the REP Team as we attempt to answer these questions, reviewing Requiem in all its (very) gory details! How did we find the synergy between the gameplay loops? Is the story materially changed forever, how is Raccoon City still standing. All this and more - hopefully everyone will find our review insightful and thorough with no calls for a second opinion. Enjoy!

With just over a month away from release, the REP Team take one final look at Resident Evil Requiem following the recent RE Showcase and gameplay reveal. Expect a thorough examination of what was shown with two inventory systems, the gore, possible zapping systems and whether Capcom can nail the tonal shift between Leon and Grace's gameplay. Needless to say theories are thrown out like confetti - will we get one right? STARS TyranT is confident... We also take a look at Resident Evil Survival Unit with a mini review - is this the return to form for biohazard mobile gaming, or should have it just stayed in a supply crate?

Following our popular podcast last year of the original trilogy and its impact on the survival horror genre, we return to examine the most influential RE title on the wider gaming industry - Resident Evil 4. 20 years since its original release, the mechanics of the gaming loop have impacted so many titles, that we felt it prudent to take a closer look at the horror games that came after with recommendations and a healthy discussion of other games too. Join Rombie, Neptune, Stars TyranT and a delighted George Trevor as we chat all things Silent Hill, Cold Fear, Dead Space and many more as we bring down our curtain on 20 years of Biohazard4. We are also joined by special guest Brandon Salisbury to celebrate the release of his George Romero documentary whilst teasing up and coming projects with RE alumni.

Welcome to a deep-dive on one of the key lore elements of the entire franchise. The t-virus is what started it all, creating the various zombies and monsters we have all fallen in love with for almost 30 years now. In this episode, we extrapolate the virus from top to bottom, going back to its origins with the Progenitor Virus, then looking at the entire history of Umbrella's t-virus project, discussing all its variants, its properties, and what the goal was behind it all. Also discussed is the Tyrant Project and some of the known t-virus variants that were developed after Umbrella's demise. In the news we look at various Requiem updates and GOG's release of OG Resident Evil 2 and 3, including the concerning quotes that Capcom appear so dismissive of these original classics. Finally Nick gets all excited about Resident Evil: Survival Unit, so much so he's booked time off to play it. Please enjoy.

Released in the United States 20 years to the day, the PS2 version of Resident Evil 4 marked a major first in the Biohazard series - the first subsequent re-release with a major canonical add-on in the form of the wonderful Separate Ways campaign. At the time whilst such a notion greatly annoyed GameCube owners, many saw Separate Way as the extra that "saved the game" in terms of connection to the overall Resident Evil lore. 20 years on, REP once again make their way back to Spain to replay this short and sweet Ada adventure beginning to end. We recount our tales with tips and tricks from various platforms - that is if Neptune does not have any issues playing with a WaveBird controller. News includes the surprising revelation that Switch 2 is getting a Requiem release - as well more updates from Survival Unit - much to STARS TyranT's dismay!

With Capcom building up the hype nicely for Resident Evil 9 at recent gameshows, we thought it would a good idea to discuss the recently released (albeit limited) demo that was made available at Gamescom 2025. To bring some first hand impressions to the table, REP is delighted to have legendary content creator, writer, voice actor and all round biohazard superfan, Suzi the Sphere Hunter join Neptune, Rombie and Astra (Mr. Spencer) in this bonus podcast! Suzi is able to share the time spent exploring this forsaken hospital, the intricacies of the monster (Lisa?), camera angles, ray tracing and tactics that fans can all look forward to when the game drops next year! (Hopefully the demo soon!) A big thanks for Suzi for taking the time to share with us and we hope you enjoy!
