Wayne Corporation was a large manufacturer of buses and other vehicles branded with the trade name "Wayne." The corporate headquarters were in Richmond, Indiana, in Wayne County, Indiana, in the United States. Wayne became a leading producer of school buses in North America.

Among innovations Wayne introduced were the first school bus application of the now popular cutaway van chassis and the first large school bus bodies featuring continuous longitudinal panels to reduce joints and improve structural integrity a number of years before FMVSS standards were required for all US school buses. After 1980, Wayne faced difficulty competing in a market with overcapacity. Declaring bankruptcy, the company discontinued operations in 1992 and the assets were liquidated.

Unbeknownst to anyone, deep beneath Wayne Enterprises, the Umbrella Corporation continues its research under the care of Lucius Fox (MORGAN FREEMAN) until a train transporting viral chemicals derails and explodes. This sets in motion an apocalyptic chain reaction across the city that spreads the horrific T-virus to each corner, reanimating the dead back to a lifeless zombie form. As panic ensues, a desperate Commissioner Gordon (GARY OLDMAN) will shine the bat signal once again to call the only hero left to save Gotham City. Meanwhile, a psychotic stage performer developes a taste for murder, dawning the title of the Mad Hatter (DANIEL DAY LEWIS) and begins hunting down those who would cross him, including Bruce Wayne and his trusted butler Alfred (MICHAEL CAINE). And, a brilliant Wayne Enterprises scientist Dr. Victor Fries (PATRICK STEWART) who, after witnessing the death of his wife in street violence, decides to take up arms and extract vengeance against Gotham's residents to share his loss and despair. In Resident Evil: Batman, the story of justice and morality has never been so darkened as questionable judgements are made and clouded decisions are forced out and hidden.
