Resident Evil 7: There is an Umbrella Corp. connection after all

Upon a second playthrough of Resident Evil 7s demo, we’ve uncovered evidence that the Umbrella Corporation actually plays some part of the game’s story.

If you don’t want to be spoiled, don’t watch this playthrough.

Right beside the creepy ringing phone is a photo of a helicopter with an Umbrella logo on it.

Here’s an image for further investigation:

Speaking with other players, there are at least two phone calls that can be answered from that phone — though both seem to end the demo itself.

What do you make of this connection?

Thanks for continued help, Jeremy!

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
