Resident Evil Series Chronologically

Does anyone know the order of the Resident Evil games in Chronological order? I want to watch all the games, but I want to watch them with the events in the right order. I already watched the REmake of the first game, and I'm watch Zero to get that done, but does anyone know the order after that?

And yes, I know Zero happens before the first game. I just watched the REmake walkthrough first since I was already through it

 

RE0, RE, RE2, RE Outbreak 1&2, RE3, RE Code Veronica and RE Gaiden (they happen around the same time), Umbrella Chronicles and Darkside Chronicles (they fill plotholes from RE0 to RE4, with a few added retcons), RE4, RE Revelations, RE5.

I have no idea where RE Survivor 1-2-4 and Operation Racoon City fit, I don' t even know if they are suposed to be canon (although when it comes to RE Capcom obviously doesn' t know what that word means). As for the upcoming RE6 Capcom hasn' t released a precise time period yet, but from what they said it happens around the same time as RE5 (a few months before or after).

 

I thought RE6 was supposed to be the farthest timewise so far

 

Given that Wesker has already been confirmed defeated in 6 it's very clear it's based after the events of 5

 

Capcom merely stated that RE6 happens 10 years after the Racoon City incident (which was July 1998). RE5 is set in 2009. If you consider "10 years, eleven months, three weeks, six days, twenty three hours, fifty nine minutes and fifty nine seconds" to be a valid possibility for "ten years" then RE6 can either be before or after RE5.

Oh yeah, I forgot that, it was revealed in the latest trailer. 10 years, eleven months, three weeks, six days, twenty three hours, fifty nine minutes and fifty nine seconds it is then ...

 

what do you guys think about waching things like Darkside chornicles instead of the real games? I mean, if Darkside has a scenario that you play that has all of Resident Evil 2, wouldn't it be better to watch the Darkside version?

 

Well, both chronicles skipped half of the original games events and inserted new stuff instead, but they would certainly be much more entertaining to watch. Personally if I had to pick between watching the originals or the chronicles then I' d pick the chronicles.

 

well, that shortens the amount of games i'm watching. Meaning I'm watching the Darkside Chronicles instead of RE2, Veronica, and whatever the Umbrella chronicles cover
