  • Actor Allusion:
  • Follow the Leader:
    • This game owes a lot to The Evil Within. The storylines are similar, the creatures are similar in nature and design, this game even co-opts The Evil Within's focus on stealth and assassination generally being better than straight-up conflict. Another similarity is noticeable in the Overseer's plan to transfer her mind into the body of another person, which Ruvik was also trying to do with Leslie Withers.
    • Barry's side of the story also borrows a lot from The Last of Us, being a story about a gruff, older man in plaid with a missing daughter who escorts a young girl who is already infected but shows no symptoms. The game also borrows the upgrade system and pointing mechanic, and Barry's backpack is a dead ringer for Joel's.
  • Prop Recycling: Many of Raid Mode's assets are from prior games:
    • Some of Resident Evil: Revelations' levels are reused, along with enemies such as Hunters and Scagdeads. Chris and Jill both have their designs from that game, and Rachael Foley, Lady HUNK, and Jessica are alternate costumes for Gina.
    • Environments from Resident Evil 6 make up a bulk of the Raid Mode levels, with the Napad and Rasklapanje making an appearance. Leon's design is also taken from said game.
    • Albert Wesker and the Executioner Majini are reused from Resident Evil 5.
  • The Red Stapler: Capcom anticipated this happening and launched a Biohazard-branded Surefire 6P flashlight (the model Moira uses) as a promotional item.
