Are there any Project W crumbs you can share with the class? I know it's a long way off still, but the prospect of a GB Patch fantasy game is exciting to me.
"Hi maybe it’s too early for this but you mentioned you already know the game you’re going to work on after OL2 can you tell us anything about it at all 🥺"
Two whole questions about that far in the future game? Okay, well, I guess I can share a little more info 😁.
If you don't want to have to hear about something this early on, don't feel bad about skipping this ask.
So, Project W is a historical fantasy visual novel. It will be just as customizable as the OL games in terms of MC's identity, personality, and appearance. The massive amount of choices and controlling how relationships progress is still going to be a part of things. However, the game is not about growing up. You start the game as an adult and end the game not that much older.
There are three love interests: a woman, a man, and a non-binary individual. The game focuses highly on a fantastical race that I've made up. Two of the three LIs are not human. The main character you play as is not a human.
And Project W will continue the theme of being heavily based on a particular season. OL1 was summer, OL2 was autumn, and Project W is... Spring! That's right, it's not winter, haha.
Also, this game has more serious topics than the OL series and characters are much bigger jerks with far bigger issues than the characters from those games.
I'm looking forward when it can be put into production 💐

He gets boots on the ground to do a final sweep of the area before he can call it neutralized, and he finds one more test subject curled up in the wreckage. She's clearly infected, her eyes are bloody and red and every vein is visible through her vellum-thin skin. He takes her back to the labs for caretaking and custody. What's one more fungal bacteria girl in the labs getting poked at? At least she's used to it since that's all she was manufactured for.
Every night as he sleeps, he now feels something trying to kill him. Fingers pressed into his throat, cutting his breathing off, but it never goes through with it all the way. He wakes up coughing and sputtering, but wishing it finished the job that he can't do himself.
Trace memories can be passed through genes, usually just neurological reactions to stimuli. Signatures of violence and stress can be passed down as well. I wonder if she remembers the hatred he felt as he died?
Imagining Wesker in his teenager era where he was in high school for example, like you know, super high leveled school just to make him perfect and follow the project W. When he was maybe 17 and still was a virgin, just because he's too focused on education and virology. Then amazing, intimidating, beautiful me caught his eye. For me this privat school, booked by my rich parents was just a duty 'cause an 17 year old girl had to do school right? I wasn't like Albert, not even a bit. I was loud, funny and reckless. Going out with my friends was like an ordinary weekend. My grades was far, far at the end of my list and graduation year after year was just a money play by my father. It wasn't really hard for Wesker to hook up with me, I was wet for him by even looking at him. I think everybody can see this popular girls pull to nerdy quiet boys. When it comes to the thing, it was amazing just to the both of us. To my quite experienced myself, it was the best night in my life, but for him.. even better. It was like a start to addiction. He wanted more and more. He wasn't able to stop thinking about me, to stop touching me.
so in love with your zeno+wesker analysis like i’m literally on the floor kicking my feet rn the way you broke down their whole vibe has me SCREAMING its so unhinged and perfect and i’m obsessed foreverbut pls tell me you’ve got more wesker headcanons stashed away?? lik his whole deal with his babymama?? was it calculated or did he catch actual feelings for two seconds and how do you think his relationship with jake would be i’m begging on my knees spill everything i can’t stop thinking bout it
Thank you for the enthusiasm anon! You are the sweetest! <3
This is actually one of my favorite topics to dive into because Wesker is such a cold, calculating character on the surface, but there are these tiny cracks that make him feel strangely human. Someone asked me this the other day, so I figured I’d turn it into a proper post.
Wesker is not an emotional person; or at least, he refuses to show emotions. That’s probably why he wore those signature shades almost his entire life. Sure, Capcom originally threw them in as a fun Terminator homage, but they ended up perfectly representing the wall he built around himself. Because eyes betray emotion, hesitation, or fear. He doesn’t want anyone reading him. EVER.
Even in S.T.A.R.S, no one ever called him “Albert.” It was always just “Wesker.” I think that was deliberate as it reinforces hierarchy and distance. He positioned himself as the no-nonsense superior officer from day one, keeping everyone at arm’s length. That emotional distance wasn’t just his personality, it was a survival mechanism. Especially since we know he later threw them all under the bus.
If you look at his backstory, Wesker was one of the children of Project W, Spencer’s eugenics program designed to create superior humans. They were taken young, given the Wesker name, provided with elite education, and subtly brainwashed and indoctrinated with ambition, superiority, and an instinctive draw toward Spencer himself. A RE5 file even mentions the “all too familiar sense of trepidation” Wesker felt toward Ozwell E. Spencer. That line always gets me. Even the “perfect” Wesker felt uneasy around his creator. Apparently for years on end too.
This is where the comparison to Naoki Urasawa’s Monster feels so fitting (the manga/anime was huge and extremely popular around 2004–2005; which is also when Resident Evil 5 was in early development). In Monster, children are experimented on to create a superior race, kidnapped from gifted parents with superior genes, systemically brainwashed & conditioned, and many of them grow up traumatized, develop an identity crisis or are emotionally detached. Sound familiar?
I truly believe Capcom 'borrowed' the Project W plan from Monster and used it to flesh out Wesker's character over the series - from slick traitor in RE1 to viral god in RE5 - layering Nietzschean ambition over quiet fears of control and obsolescence. Monster's exploration of engineered "superior" humans and eroded humanity echoes Spencer's vision.
It feels like they even gave Wesker's outfit in RE4 (2005) one that mirrors Johan’s style.
Similarly to Johan Liebert, Wesker broke from that programming by killing Spencer (though I think Spencer deliberately wanted Wesker to kill him but let's leave this analysis for another time), claiming the "right to be a god" for himself with Uroboros - but the conditioning left scars. And it still set him off to want to cull humanity - even though he virtually barely killed anyone directly before (Enrico being the exception - I honestly don't want to count this because even that felt like a moment that lacked depth or weight, almost generic in how it played out). Showing vulnerability could invite exploitation, whether from rivals like Umbrella remnants, Tricell, or even former comrades.
So when you take all of that into account - a man who was programmed from childhood, terrified that showing any emotion could be used against him - his brief relationship with Jake’s mother starts to make a lot more sense.
As I said in my other post, I don’t think it was love in the traditional sense. Wesker isn’t built for that. But I genuinely believe he was curious. For once in his life, here was a woman who saw him as he really was: just Albert. Someone who praised him, offered unfiltered intimacy and who made him feel like a person might have represented a rare space for curiosity about normal human connection. That kind of genuine intimacy must have been intoxicating for someone who spent his whole life behind emotional armor. Perhaps it was an experiment in vulnerability for a man who viewed humanity as flawed cattle. Or, more charitably, a momentary crack in his armor where suppressed emotions surfaced.
I also think he deliberately distanced himself once things got serious. He knew what kind of life he was living: the viruses, the conspiracies, the constant danger. By the time of Jake's conception, Wesker was deep in Umbrella's schemes. This is why I am sure that Wesker knows he had a child. Sending her away with their unborn baby (or simply cutting contact) was probably his version of protection. Wesker is too meticulous. He wasn't the type for domesticity, but severing contact entirely aligns with his "superior" detachment: better they live ordinary lives than become pawns or targets.
If Wesker were to had ever properly met with Jake, I think he would have been incredibly awkward about it. He would understand Jake’s anger and resentment for being abandoned. He’d accept the hate if that’s what Jake felt. But deep down? He’d be proud. Exasperated by Jake’s reckless, rebellious attitude (lol), but still proud that his son turned out strong and capable on his own terms. He wouldn’t try to force a father-son relationship but would definitely rather maintain distant observation. He'd watch from afar, ensuring no one else exploited Jake's unique physiology the way Wesker himself was used.
He generally doesn’t care about people and couldn’t give a rat’s ass about most of humanity, but if he had a family, he would be far more caring than anyone would expect. Because deep down, he never had one - not as a child, and not as an adult. That missing piece would make him pour everything he has into protecting and supporting them.
Canon lore tells us that once someone is injected with the Prototype virus, they become infertile. So Jake was conceived before Wesker’s full viral transformation - meaning he can’t have any more biological children.
That’s why my personal headcanon is that if Wesker had ever been allowed to lead a normal life - if he somehow stepped away from the madness and tried to have a family and adopt children - he would be fiercely, almost obsessively protective. Especially since he’d see normal human children as extremely fragile compared to his enhancements. He would always be there with them stemming from the fact that he still feels guilty for not being there for Jake.
He’d probably even get flustered and overreact if one of his adopted kids got sick - you know, the great Albert Wesker, superhuman mastermind and brilliant virologist, suddenly panicking because his kid has a fever, even though he is fully capable of understanding every symptom and outcome, yet still quietly bracing for the worst case scenario. Knowledge wouldn’t spare him from fear; if anything, it would make it sharper. He’s seen exactly how bad things can get when it came to viruses and diseases. The man who survived volcanoes, viruses, and Chris Redfield would be completely out of his depth trying to figure out something as mundane as chicken soup and bed rest. It would be equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking, watching someone so emotionally repressed finally forced to confront genuine care and worry over something he can't fix or control.
Wesker was never interested in material gains, but he would make sure his family lived in genuine comfort. He’d give his kids everything they could reasonably want or desire: a nice house, art/piano lessons, the best schools, quality clothes, books, gadgets - anything that made them happy. He wouldn’t put unrealistic expectations on them at school or in life. He’d be proud of them no matter what, even if they were just average students or chose completely ordinary paths.
If by some sort of miracle he is able to concieve biological children, then again his protectiveness would be absolute. Because they wouldn’t be ordinary kids. OBVIOUSLY since their DNA and immune systems would be likely fortified by genetic inheritance, resistant to ordinary viral structure. They also would undeniably have the same cellular blueprint altered by the Prototype Virus, by Uroboros, by everything that had made their father into something beyond human.
They wouldn’t just inherit Wesker's traits; they’d embody a refined version of them, something even more unpredictable. And that alone would make them targets. In a world obsessed with control and power, children like that wouldn’t be left alone for long. Everyone would want them. He’d know better than anyone what the world does to something rare, something powerful - and he would never let them be taken, studied, broken or used and abused the way he was.
He’d change his name, move to the most boring suburban town imaginable, and do everything possible to keep Umbrella remnants or rival companies from ever touching his family.
Hell, he might even swallow his pride and quietly reach out to Chris or the old S.T.A.R.S team if things got dangerous. In his own twisted way, he still thinks of his old team as reliable and trustworthy 'friends'. The ultimate irony: the man who wanted to become a god and cull humanity suddenly becoming vulnerable family man because he finally allowed himself to care about something other than power.
But the truth is, the man was never allowed to lead a normal life. From the moment he was taken as a child for Project W, every path was chosen for him. He was designed, conditioned, and later enhanced to be something far beyond ordinary. Normalcy was never an option.
Wesker has always been hunted- everyone eagerly wanting a piece of him, a chance to claim the Übermensch as their own living canvas. The Connections wanted him so badly that they invested enormous resources and money to create Zeno. It's possible other organizations will create Wesker clones too if they get their hands on his DNA. Serves to show why he faked his death on more than one occassion.
Wesker remains compelling because he's not pure monster or pure machine. He's the product of eugenics horror, viral ambition, and a fractured identity.
What do you guys think? Am I reading too much into it, or does this make Wesker even more tragic and interesting?
For a while now I've been wondering whether Zeno is Spencer's second attempt at creating another project after he failed Project W.
According to the lore (as far as we know) only Alex and Albert Wesker survived, and although they both went on to create their own respective projects, we do not get much information on Spencer's whereabouts. What he continued to do, which other projects he might have started or taken on, or simply abandoned for something else.
So my question is: could Zeno be part of a Project Z?
(Going off the trend Spencer had with the naming of the children, he could be called Alexander Zeno lol, I'm kidding)
That being said, what if Spencer went on to start another eugenics project to achieve that which he failed with the Weskers. Fast-forward to that too failing due to unforeseen circumstances, meaning they turned out to be suffering from the RC Syndrome. Perhaps he abandoned the project (once again) and went on in search for a remedy or cure as he would say.
Besides there could be many more Wesker clones out there, which isn't that far-fetched considering all the other clones we've seen in the orphanage who were being used for decades. Think of all the children they cloned and infected with a variety of viruses.
Another aspect that makes little to no sense to me, is the supposed Chloe / Emily clones with the glowing red eyes. From what I remember, and I could be wrong, only Albert Wesker has ever had glowing red eyes. No other BOW / infected has had the same. Alternatively, this could just be a visual element the devs added to make them seem more creepy. Honestly, who knows. The plot we had from earlier games has been shot to the moon.
But I really wonder about Zeno and the possibility of more clones being out there. We all saw the insane amount of embryos they had in ARK, so is it really that far-fetched?

( Trying out new color combinations. Couldn't focus staring at fictional buttcheeks. Also, yes, I'm aware he didn't have it yet in RE4 but I really like his suit 😭.)
