Why is Leon 50 in Resident Evil Requiem while Jill and Claire don’t age?

We’re only days away from Resident Evil Requiem, the latest chapter of Capcom’s long-running survival horror series. It will introduce a new character in Grace Ashford, and also bring back Leon S. Kennedy as an older hunk. It might leave you wishing you could see other heroes like Jill Valentine aged-up next, but don’t expect that anytime soon. That’s thanks to the dumbest piece of lore imaginable: the leading ladies of Resident Evil age very slowly.
