In view of this, fans will be seeing Jill staying young in the future sequels in the franchise.
“It is, in fact, true that the set-up for Jill, especially that she got infected by the virus twice or three times, I think. She is the one that is not aging and this was set up by Capcom,” the “Death Island” writer explained.
The writer also said that the case was similar to other iconic characters like Claire Redfield and Rebecca Chambers, who were also infected with a virus, but they were not Capcom’s focus.
“The rest is also true, but we kind of kept the same thing,” Fukami added.
According to a post from one of “Resident Evil’s” official accounts on X, Jill’s T-Virus infection has indeed slowed her aging.
