  • Which scenario is canon in RE 2?

    I keep on hearing Leon A/Claire B is the official one, then I also hear that Claire A/Leon B is the official story. I know the Wesker Report followed Leon A/Claire B, but the RE 2 digest in UC follows Claire A/Leon B. I figured they decided to change it, but I still need confirmation.

    For the record, Wesker's Report does some sort of mixed version of RE2 that you can't get in game (e.g. Leon somehow does both endings and at some point gets the G-Virus from Sherry...)

    A lot of people like going with the idea that it's a mix between both possible scenarios, like how you're supposed to look at RE1.

    I've always preferred Claire A/Leon B though, because I think it's fits better. If it wasn't for Degeneration and Capcom's love for playing mind games with the fans, I would've stuck with that more strongly after Archives and UC...

      How did Degeneration give you more doubt on that?

        There is no official canon course of events. Events from all four scenarios occur. It's a mish-mash of sorts. The only events set in stone are the ones confirmed by later sources, such as Ada going back to save Leon from the T-103 and Sherry's infection.

        How did Degeneration give you more doubt on that?
        A flashback sequence shows that Claire encountered Birkin's first G form. Which is much better by my books, as it means that Irons got ripped to shreds.

              I always felt Claire A/Leon B was cannon and go what was said in UC. Wesker's Report is kinda a mis-mash of events and think capcom didn't have the story down at that point. I still don't thing they do but UC seemed to try and tie up some of the lose ends.

                I prefer the Claire A/Leon B scenario, it's better for both characters I think.

                  Claire A/Leon B, based on "Research on Biohazard 2 Final" as well as interviews with Kamiya and Mikami.

                    The main difference is Sherry infected VS Sherry no infected.
                    So if we ever see Sherry again, we'll be able to know for sure.
                    Most of the evidence points to Claire A/Leon B anyways. And if they ever use Sherry as a character again, this is probably the path they'd choose.

                      I also strongly believe Claire A/Leon B is the canon version.

                          It's official, this topic has been discussed too many times!

                          IMO it's a bit of both...
                          I don't know why some people are so stressed about, it must be one or the other.

                            It's only because I was so certain that the canon scenario was Claire A/Leon B, until I saw a lot of people debate on it. I just have to make sure.
