I was on the side that resident evil 2 remake was the canon now because it is better than the original in every way but that’s not saying much as resident evil 1,2,3, and remake 1 …
Resident Evil 2 as a story is canon. But no actual version of it is absolute canon. Some people insist that RE2make itself isn’t canon for a variety of reasons while everything else is, but RE2 itself is contradicted by sources such as Death’s Door.

REmake 2 is a little more confusing because the B scenario has essentially the same cutscenes as the A scenario. In this way, A events contradict B events.

How did Ada survive in Resident Evil 2?
it’s a whole lot easier to swallow that Ada survived RE2 based on how she died in Leon B. It’s not like Leon stopped to check her pulse. Claire A/Leon B is the canon scenario. I’m pretty sure Resident Evil 6 confirms this. In Claire A, Sherry was infected with the G-Virus by Birkin in the sewers.
