Kenichi Iwao's Tyrant concept is different from what they did in RE2.

In the drafts for the RE1 sequel that he left at Capcom, one of the elements of was the appearance of "militarized tyrants" and the RE2 devs made Mr.X.
Iwao's used his idea in Parasite Eve 2 with the GOLEMs instead, his idea was basically an army of enhanced soldiers that had different functions and worked as a team: an armored model, a nimble model, a combat model and No.9 himself. They were just repurposed as anti-mitochondria agents instead of just military supersoldiers for lore purposes, that's why some people who play PE2 find the appearance of the GOLEMs kind of coming out of nowhere, they're basically one of Iwao's original ideas making a cameo in a game where biotechnology and bioengineering wasn't the main focus, they're still the strongest enemies in the game regardless.
GOLEMs and Tyrants are brothers basically.
