Resident Evil 4 became one of the most beloved games in the Capcom franchise on its own merits for a variety of reasons, but one of them has to do with the charisma emanating from its protagonist: Leon Kennedy (although there are other characters who also have fabric). The adventure of the latter in the fourth numbered part of the saga is remembered but… What happens to the character after the events of Resident Evil 4? This is precisely the question I want to answer below.
Resident Evil 4 Remake
