The Sweeper (スウィーパー suwīpā?) was a variation of the Hunter II, differentiated from their unaltered brethren by their reddish skin.[1][2] The intention of the Sweeper design was for it to "sweep" through previously attacked areas to mop up anything left.[3][notes 1] Other differences included their purple veins and scales that were of a light purple color, along with red, piercing eyes. They attacked in the same manner of the Hunter II; however, unlike other Hunter types, their claws had an added poisonous effect, making them considerably more dangerous.

    "ウェスカーの所属する謎の組織、 彼のもたらしたアンブレラのB.O.W.「ハンター」情報をもとのの、 開発した兵器。外観はアンブレラそれと変わらないものの、 周辺機器の「自走式監視機」により行動の刺御が可能なぶん、 兵器としての実用はオリジナルより高い。なかても爪に毒性を持つタイプは、 作戦区域内の掃討を目的に造られたため「スウィーパー(掃討者)」と呼ばれる。"
