Resident Evil, by Peter Jonca (Snakeyboy), is a fan copy of the Resident Evil 7 biohazard lettering, with worn, scratched capitals. Its author allows free use for non-commercial projects only, so it is not passed on here: get it from his page on DeviantArt. Free for posters, invites and your edits; to sell what you make with it, buy its author’s licence.

Bebas Neue has the same tall, narrow capitals as the fan font, with clean edges instead of worn ones. It has capitals only, so every word you type comes out in capitals. Use it for anything, even things you sell.

No one definitive version exists, since the emblem was reworked separately for every installment. Google’s answer lists Compacta Bold for the first three games, Trajan Bold for Resident Evil 5 and 6, and Rama Gothic SemiBold for the word biohazard on Resident Evil 7. It ties the main title of Resident Evil 7 to Plak Black Extra Condensed, the font a dafont forum member suggested too. Fans have also drawn the logos as fonts: Peter Jonca’s Resident Evil copies the Resident Evil 7 lettering.
That typeface is limited to non-commercial use and its creator forbids profiting from it, which is why we don’t offer it here. We give Bebas Neue, by Ryoichi Tsunekawa: lofty, slim capitals matching the logo, free for any project under the SIL Open Font License.
Compacta Bold and Plak Black Extra Condensed, the two fonts named for the early games and for Resident Evil 7, are both tall, narrow and heavy. Peter Jonca’s fan font keeps that shape and roughs up the edges so they look scratched. It also draws a lowercase letter as a smaller capital, so Resident Evil comes out as a tall R and E with smaller capitals after them.
Solid on the Logo background sets your text in white caps on black, spanning the whole frame. Glow adds a faint light round the letters, which suits a title that fades in over a dark clip. Clear keeps just the lettering, so it can sit on top of a Resident Evil gameplay clip.

There is none for the whole series: each game has its own logo, and fans do not agree on what they are. Google’s answer names Compacta Bold, Trajan Bold and Rama Gothic SemiBold, and a dafont forum thread suggests Plak Black Extra Condensed for Resident Evil 7. Here, Bebas Neue is the no-cost typeface giving that slim, lofty appearance.
Bebas Neue, the typeface used here, costs nothing for any project under the SIL Open Font License. Peter Jonca’s Resident Evil font is labeled Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives on DeviantArt, but its author writes that it is for free, non-commercial use and asks to be credited, so treat it as personal use only.
No: Peter Jonca’s font is on his DeviantArt page, not on dafont, FontSpace or 1001Fonts. A dafont forum thread about the Resident Evil font does list Plak Black Extra Condensed as the identified font. For text to paste into a bio, see copy and paste fonts; this page draws your words as a picture.
A top Google hit notes that Requiem appears in an unnamed typewriter-style face, while the game’s body copy uses Neue Frutiger Roman. This page does not draw a typewriter look: its maker draws tall capitals.
In Bebas Neue, yes: under the SIL Open Font License, projects may be sold commercially. Resident Evil’s name and emblems belong to Capcom as trademarks, so merchandise such as a tee or print featuring them can’t be sold by you. Peter Jonca’s font may not be used to make money at all.
