BABYMETAL Team Up With ‘Resident Evil’ For 30th Anniversary Collaboration

Japanese kawaii metal sensations BABYMETAL are joining forces with the legendary survival horror franchise ‘Resident Evil’ for a special collaboration celebrating the series’ upcoming 30th anniversary in 2026.

The partnership was announced through a teaser video featuring Alcina Dimitrescu, the towering villainess from Resident Evil Village, revealing that exclusive BABYMETAL x Resident Evil merchandise will arrive in 2026 as part of the anniversary festivities.

While details remain limited for now, the collaboration marks another intersection between heavy metal and the Resident Evil universe. The long-running franchise has a rich history of metal crossovers — including the 2002 film soundtrack, which featured contributions from Marilyn Manson, Slipknot, and Mudvayne.

Fans can expect more information on the merch drop as the milestone year approaches.
