Resident Evil: Vendetta, known as Biohazard: Vendetta (バイオハザード ヴェンデッタ, Baiohazādo Vendetta?) in Japan, is an upcoming 2017 Japanese 3D animated biopunk thriller film. It is part of the Resident Evil franchise, set in the same universe as the associated video games (unlike the live action films starring Milla Jovovich). The film features the characters Chris Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy and Rebecca Chambers. It will be the third CG movie, after Resident Evil: Degeneration in 2008, followed by Resident Evil: Damnation in 2012, and this film will mark the third with Leon as a main character. The film is produced by Marza Animation Planet, written by Makoto Fukami (Psycho Pass, Ultraman X) and directed by Takanori Tsujimoto (The Next Generation Patlabor).Takashi Shimizu will serve as executive producer. It is scheduled for release in Japan on May 27, 2017, with a limited theatrical showing in North America planned for June 2017.

The story is set in between the events of Resident Evil 6 and Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. BSAA Chris Redfield enlists the help of American government agent Leon S. Kennedy and Professor Rebecca Chambers from Alexander Institute of Biotechnology to try to stop Glenn Arias, a death merchant who is on a mission of vengeance from spreading a new deadly virus known as "The Trigger Virus" in New York City.
