Sherry Birkin is generally understood by fans to be around 42 years old in Resident Evil 9 (Resident Evil: Requiem).

How fans get that age

  • Multiple lore-focused fans place Sherry’s birth year at 1986.
  • In Resident Evil 6, set in 2013, she’s repeatedly described in discussions as 26 years old.
  • Resident Evil 9 / Requiem is set roughly three decades after RE2’s 1998 events, landing Sherry in her early forties (about 42) by the time of RE9.

So while Capcom hasn’t yet printed a clear “Sherry is X years old in RE9” line, most timeline breakdowns and age-compilation threads converge on early 40s, specifically about 42.

What RE9 seems to show

  • Community threads about “age of all living characters during RE9” list Sherry, Ashley, and Moira as being in their early 40s, with Sherry called out as 42.
  • Other forum posts talking “all we know about Sherry in RE9” describe her as a woman “in her forties,” consistent with that timeline math.
  • Video breakdowns of her RE2 → RE6 → RE9 arc treat RE9 as the natural continuation of a character who has aged about three decades since 1998.

So, in forum/FAQ terms for “how old is Sherry in RE9”:

She’s treated as about 42 years old and firmly in her early 40s , not a young rookie anymore but a seasoned veteran in the series timeline.
