Mia Winters hires a private investigator to find her missing husband Ethan after he disappears while searching for her.
Ethan Winters travels to a derelict plantation in Dulvey, Louisiana, to search for his wife Mia, leading him to the Baker family estate where he encounters the mutated family members.
Ethan discovers that the Baker family and others are infected by a mutagenic bioweapon called the Mold which warps and controls its hosts.
Ethan finds and rescues Mia, who reveals that she was infected and working under duress for the bioengineering company responsible.
Ethan repeatedly confronts Jack Baker, the patriarch who is sustained by the Mold and becomes increasingly aggressive and mutated.
Ethan destroys the main container housing the Mold sample to prevent further spread and to weaken the infected hosts.
Ethan meets Eveline, a young girl who is actually a bioweapon capable of controlling the Mold and people infected by it.
Ethan fights Eveline in her monstrous form to end her control over the infected and stop the outbreak.
After defeating Eveline, Ethan escapes the collapsing estate with Mia, ending the immediate threat of the Mold infection.
