For those who remember Local Evil: Vendetta, another animated film which launched in 2017, you may be interested to see that this is a sequel to that movie. That one starred characters like Leon S. Kennedy, Chris Redfield, and Rebecca Chambers, and while it didn't necessarily get stellar scores, it was still enjoyed by fans of the series in general.

D.S.O. agent Leon S. Kennedy is on an objective to rescue Dr. Antonio Taylor from kidnappers, when a strange woman thwarts his pursuit, a sneak peek of the motion picture reads. Meanwhile, B.S.A.A. representative Chris Redfield is examining a zombie outbreak in San Francisco, where the cause of the infection can not be recognized. The only thing the victims have in common is that they all checked out Alcatraz Island just recently. Following that hint, Chris and his group head to the island, where a new horror awaits them.

While not pointed out in the description of the movie, you'll notice at the very end of the trailer that there's a short cutaway to Jill Valentine, another fan-favorite from the Resident Evil series.
