Last year, Capcon announced the game Resident Evil Village, which will be a direct continuation of Resident Evil 7. We will play the well-known Ethan again, although we will receive a completely different place of action, namely a European village. We know from previous materials that this time werewolves and witches will play an important role in the game. Changing the location of the action to a more winter location should not negatively affect the climate and the level of fear. Capcon has just presented a new trailer and gameplay, which confirms that Resident Evil Village is definitely worth waiting for. In addition, owners of the Sony PlayStation 5 console can now check a sample of the possibilities of the new Japanese title. The MAIDEN demo has been made available, which we have already checked.

Capcom has released a new trailer and gameplay from the long-awaited Resident Evil Village game. The game will debut on PC, PlayStation 4/5 and Xbox One / Series S / X on May 7 670 year. In addition, PlayStation 5 owners received an exclusive MAIDEN demo, which we have also checked.

In the published third trailer, the main character of the game went to a huge castle, inhabited by several witches (vampires?). We can expect, among others combat with the use of firearms, frequent puzzles to solve or blocking attacks, which is to be one of the pillars of the new version. The trailer also shows a mysterious man with a huge hammer, Chris and a werewolf. Our task will be to solve the mystery of the town and why it has become so dangerous. In terms of visuals, however, we expect a graphical jump in relation to Resident Evil 7. The released MAIDEN demo shows, however, that we should not count on a completely new generation.

It is absolutely not that the game is looks bad. Ba! It looks really good, because Resident Evil Village uses HDR and a wide range of colors in a fantastic way, which we will not see in the screenshots below taken directly from PlayStation 5. The game offers, above all, great quality of lighting and a great atmosphere. Although the MAIDEN demo is short (depending on the tempo from 10 to 30 minutes with a single pass), it cannot be denied a very good climate through which we feel constant anxiety. We start in the dungeons, then free ourselves from them and traverse the corridors of the huge castle. The demo ends at the point where you can only say “What ?! It’s over ?! I want more!” The RE Engine has been even more refined, and the audio-visual setting is again high-end. In addition, the demo is rendered in native 4K resolution (although the quality of textures at close range could be better) and while maintaining smooth 60 FPS. The demo itself, however, says very little about the storyline, so here we have to wait for the game’s debut. And this one will come soon. Capcon confirmed the premiere prepared for May 7 2021. Resident Evil Village will appear on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X. In the case of PlayStation, purchasing the PS4 edition guarantees access to the PS5 version. For Xbox, the Smart Delivery feature will be available.
