- In the REmake, Richard can die in four different ways. However, It should be noted that all of Richard's possible deaths are a result of self-sacrifice:
- If the player takes too long looking for the Antivenom, he dies from the Yawn's venom. This was the only cause of death in the original game.
- In Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, Richard also dies of poison but off-screen.
- If Chris Redfield gives him the serum on time, Aiken will be eaten by a Neptune, saving Chris from it.
- If Jill Valentine saves him, then he will sacrifice himself to the Yawn to stop it from killing her.
- If Jill grabs the death mask before Yawn is defeated and leaves the room, Richard, will stay behind and is killed.
- In Biohazard: Pachislot, he can sacrifice himself to save Jill (possibly Chris) from various monsters.
- If the player takes too long looking for the Antivenom, he dies from the Yawn's venom. This was the only cause of death in the original game.
- In the remake version, if the player managed to get the radio from Richard and head out to the Guard House, Chris will receive a garbled message on his radio from Albert Wesker, mentioning something about a "monster in chains" as well as the woods outside the mansion; Jill gets the same message from Barry Burton.
- Richard's T-shirt under his vest doesn't have the S.T.A.R.S emblem on the left sleeve, and instead it has the R.P.D emblem on the right sleeve; but in Resident Evil 0 opening he has S.T.A.R.S. emblem on his T-shirt.
- Richard appeared in a rare promotional comic called Resident Evil Vol 1 1, a story that follows Richard's quest for survival shortly before the events of the original game. While it is possible Richard is also the character on the cover - and thus the game's - the two look nothing alike.
- The official Resident Evil website provided non-canon biographies for characters with the help of GamePro. Its entry for Richard Aiken says: "A very important member of S.T.A.R.S. serving as Bravo’s communications expert. The only link back to headquarters for teams out in the field, Richard actually has to pull double duty, as radioman for both units since Alpha Team really has no trained operator, except for Jill."[1]
