Claire Redfield[a] is a character in Resident Evil (Biohazard in Japan), a survival horror series created by the Japanese company Capcom. Claire was first introduced alongside Leon S. Kennedy as one of two player characters in Resident Evil 2 (1998). The character was conceived as Elza Walker, a blonde motorcyclist character in the prototype of the game, but her name and role were changed for the final version to connect its story to that of Resident Evil (1996). In Resident Evil 2, Claire arrives in Raccoon City, a settlement in the Midwestern United States that has been overrun by zombies, to find her missing brother Chris Redfield.

Claire is the protagonist of several Resident Evil games, novels, and films, and has appeared in other franchises, including Monster Hunter and Teppen. Several actors have portrayed Claire; in Resident Evil 2 (1998) , she is voiced by Alyson Court, whose features were later used for the character. In the 2019 remake of Resident Evil 2, she is voiced by Stephanie Panisello and modeled on the Canadian model Jordan McEwen. In the live-action Resident Evil films, Claire has been portrayed by Ali Larter and Kaya Scodelario.

Critics have positively responded to Claire's personality and her role as a strong, female lead character. Several journalists considered Claire to be significantly less-sexualized than other female game characters. She was exemplified as a female character who is as competent and skilled as her male counterparts.
