And it was apparently uploaded by mistake to the Netflix Media Center where it was spotted and promptly leaked to the public which further confirmed the series to be an adaptation of popular video game. The synopsis read as follows:
“The town of Clearfield, MD has long stood in the shadow of three seemingly unrelated behemoths – the Umbrella Corporation, the decommissioned Greenwood Asylum, and Washington, D.C. Today, twenty-six years after the discovery of the T-Virus, secrets held by the three will start to be revealed at the first signs of an outbreak.”
