Resident Evil 8 Village, on the way
The next stop in the franchise goes through the eighth main installment. Resident Evil Village will give us back control over Ethan, the protagonist of the 2017 title. Due to unknown circumstances, the young man arrives in a mysterious mountainous town where he will find a kind of religious cult. Could it be a cult? We do not know. What has transpired is that they will be protected by creatures that act in packs.
Resident Evil Village is scheduled for release on PS5, Xbox Series X | S, and PC. However, in September 2020 it emerged that the team was studying taking it to the past generation. The Japanese could not “promise anything” at the time, so we do not know where that version is, if it exists.
We first heard about it during the June 2020 PlayStation Showcase, where the PS5 design was first shown. In the trailer we saw familiar faces, like Chris Redfield’s. What mysteries await in the town?
