With *Resident Evil Requiem* unleashed on the world, one particular element of the story is getting a *lot* of traction online: Leon S.

Kennedy.

The Division of Security Operations agent first debuted as the protagonist of 1998's *Resident Evil 2* and hasn't been seen since 2012's *Resident Evil 6* — not including remakes.

Now that he's back, Leon's a bit older, a bit wiser, and evidently also way hotter. In short, our Resident Evil king has returned in fine form.

Naturally, the internet is being super chill about it.
