After fan criticisms that the film didn't resolve any of the loose ends that were left hanging after the previous films, the novelization attempted to fill in the gaps. Ada, Leon and Jill, who do not appear in this film, are explained to have died in the Washington Battle, with Jill being stabbed in the eye by Wesker's tentacle and Ada and Leon being eaten by a mutant. Becky was taken into hiding and is reunited with Alice at the end. Claire explains that she and her brother Chris were taken away in separate helicopters after the attack on Arcadia, and she never saw him again, though she hopes he's okay. K-Mart is not mentioned in the novelization, so she is presumed to have died along with the rest of the survivors on the Arcadia ship. The White Queen's absence is also explained by saying that she's actually the same form of artificial intelligence as the Red Queen, and not a distinct one. The inventor of the T-Virus is also explained by having Dr. Ashford designing the progenitor cell of the virus while Dr. Marcus simply took his work and refined it, revealing that they both worked on the experiment. Wesker suddenly being weaker is also explained by saying that he hasn't fed on fresh DNA in a while due to the dwindling human population, therefore his regeneration powers aren't as strong, and it's also why he's spitting up blood despite only his leg being crushed. Unlike in the film, where he dies for certain, the novelization heavily implies that Wesker survived the explosion. The novelization also rewrote a heavily criticized scene in the film, where Alice sneaks a bomb into Isaacs' coat pocket in the laser hallway and it detonates inches away from the vial of Anti-Virus which is in his other pocket, to her switching the vial with the bomb instead.
