Some of that looks super RE4-y, and I dig it. Capcom call this “the eighth main entry” in the series so yup, I guess it is Resident Evil 8 by another name. This is another first-person game like RE7 too, though Capcom say Village has “a greater focus on combat and exploration”. As for what’s going on, Capcom say that Village is set a few years after Resident Evil 7, with Ethan and his wife Mia happily reunited and living together. But… “Finally able to move on from those horrifying events, Ethan’s world suddenly comes crashing down once again when Chris Redfield, an unexpected yet familiar face makes an appearance, setting off a chain of events that sees a distraught Ethan seeking answers to Chris’s shocking actions… and ultimately finding him in a mysterious village.” Thanks a bunch, Chris. Yup, it is confirmed for PC. Whatever you call it, hit our E3 2020 tag for more from this summer’s blast of gaming announcements, trailers, and miscellaneous marketing.
