Although never referenced in the films, the newspaper clippings in Jill Valentine's apartment that say "STARS operative Jill Valentine and others are on temporary suspension after a mission in the Arklay Mountains" heavily implies that the Mansion Incident from the first Resident Evil (1996) game did happen in the film universe but was off-screen. This would explain how Jill knew so much about the zombies and the T-virus. No mention is made of Chris Redfield or other characters like Barry Burton and Albert Wesker, though they do eventually show up in the sequels. So the events took place, but the way they happened are drastically changed.
