Resident Evil

Resident Evil, known as Biohazard (バイオハザード) in Japan, is a series of survival horror games by Capcom. The series has a few references in the Mega Man franchise.

Resident Evil references in Mega Man

 * In Mega Man Battle & Chase, the Sunset Course has a Resident Evil (Bio Hazard 2 in Japan, misnamed as "Residient Evil" in English) banner.
 * Ciel's theme in Mega Man Zero 2, Labo, was based on "The One Who Survives", Rebecca Chambers' theme from Resident Evil.
 * In the Rockman Zero manga, Omega is deathly afraid of zombies to the extent that he was even willing to work with Zero just to stop the zombie robots, with the root reason behind his fear of them coming from his never finishing Resident Evil.
 * Although primarily derived from Albert Wily, portions of Master Albert's characterization and arc in Mega Man ZX Advent shared notable similarities to that of Albert Wesker, the main antagonist of the Resident Evil franchise up to Resident Evil 5.
 * In Mega Man Legends, the girl in front of the YAG school says she wants to make games like Resident Evil.
 * In Mega Man Legends 2, the description of the Flutter decoration item Game Cartridge says that it is the latest game in a popular series: "Resident Evil 43".

Mega Man references in Resident Evil

 * The 2020 release of Resident Evil 3 has a poster of Dr. Light and Dr. Wily in the subway, and the shop Toy Uncle has Bad Box Art Mega Man merchandise. Thomas Light's depiction on the poster bears a close resemblance to his DiC animation depiction.
