Kevin Dooley/development

Kevin Dooley did not exist in the original versions of Resident Evil and Resident Evil 0. In Resident Evil, the severed hand discovered by Frost belonged to Edward Dewey. This was also used in the E3 2000 edition of Zero, where Rebecca Chambers encounters an injured Edward missing a hand. When the GameCube remake of Resident Evil was released in 2002, it replaced Edward's hand with Joseph finding Kevin's corpse; creating the character. This prompted the developers of Zero to make a slight change in the plot. In the remodeled version, Bravo team left Kevin in the helicopter to make repairs, and Edward's hand is intact.
