Resident Evil VIIIage (PC/PS5/XSX/PS4/XB1) - May 7, 2021

[6souls]

The next generation of survival horror rises in the form of Resident Evil Village, the eighth major entry in the Resident Evil series. With ultra-realistic graphics powered by the RE Engine, fight for survival as danger lurks around every corner.

Years after the tragic events of Resident Evil 7 biohazard, Ethan Winters has started over with his wife Mia, finally living in peace and putting the past behind them. However, Chris Redfield, the legendary hero from previous Resident Evil games, suddenly disrupts their life, throwing a devastated Ethan into a new and twisted nightmare in search of answers.

A deeper look with the devs.

Can't wait for the fan breakdown of what the bird/fetus picture means lol.

Some possible leaks from a supposed playtest of the game. Nothing too exciting, though.

Enemies seem to be pretty similar to RE4's

ENEMIES

The enemies within these areas are very pale, almost rotten skin, with tattoos on their foreheads and hands. Some with armor, but not like knight armor, that can also be shot off. They only speak of “normal” enemy types in this test, not of the “werewolf” like creatures we’d spoke on, and that was shown in the trailer.

They do speak in a distorted foreign language. Some carried daggers, swords, axes, and even spears. There are some without armed weapons. They jump and grab and bite similar to Resident Evil 3, and you can button-mash to take less damage. Some enemies will throw you to the ground instead of biting. The one with the sword has a special attack that can instantly behead Ethan. And according to the source, you’ll recognize the move once you play the game.

That "Unfair" difficulty sounds fun lol. Hope that turns out to be true. Possible melee weapons sounds interesting too.

A lot of the similarities to RE4 leads Bawkbasoup to believe that they're possibly setting this game up to help speed up an RE4 remake reusing this game's assets. I'd be all right with that if that ends up being the case. RE2/3 remakes reused a lot of RE7's in the end.

RE8 developers are trying to put game on PS4/Xbox one X/S. They cannot guarantee if they can.

Unfinished things leaked like not having all the textures etc but yeah it leaked. I've seen em.

Crapcom sent a bunch of dmcas to have the stuff removed from the intranets, and as you'd expect had the opposite effect. They never learn.

What megacorporation with millions of moving parts and bean-counters far removed from reality has learned?
