The story for GYLT revolves around Sally, a little girl living in Bethelwood. Life hasn’t been easy for Sally, and things haven’t gotten any better since her little cousin Emily disappeared. After being chased by a group of bullies, Sally is dragged into a twisted version of her town where her fears and worse memories are presented in a wicked and very real way. Now, not only has Sally got to find her way out of this alternate reality, but she also must solve the mystery of Emily’s disappearance.

The familiar Survival Horror mechanic of deciding to either fight or flee from monsters in on full display in GYLT, but with the added component of it being from a child’s point of view. Similar to how you were taught to face your fears when you were a kid, you’ll either be taking on these nightmarish creatures using your flashlight (a la Alan Wake), or coming up with strategies to distract them or stealthily maneuver around them. The game is all set to a soundtrack by Cris Velasco, whose work ranges from Overwatch and Mass Effect to Borderlands, God of War, Bloodborne.

Those Kickstarter stretch goals for Shades of Horror include things such as cross-platform multiplayer, AI survivor teammates, additional content like Operation: Rabid Wolf and an Ironman mode, and what’s referred to as the Dinobreak expansion pack (for you Dino Crisis fans).

“We are in awe of the tremendous support from our community of survivors! We feel so privileged to be able to develop Shades of Horror for them and bring retro style gaming to next-gen consoles,” say Evan & Julia Wolbach, co-founders of Dead Drop Studios. “We are over the moon that the style of gaming we grew up with will be available for a new generation to learn and enjoy.”

A love letter to Survival Horror games in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Shades of Horror centres on a cast of survivors as they fight to escape the city of Cypress Ridge during the early days of the zombie apocalypse. Characters from previous Outbreak games will be returning in Shades of Horror, and will also have their origin stories revealed. Each survivor will have their own backstory, explaining how they ended up in Cypress Ridge, as well as their own unique skills that will allow them to make their way through the city. Shades of Horror will encourage players to play as each of the survivors “in order to construct what has happened from bits and pieces of journal entries, recordings and radio station broadcasts scattered throughout the city.”

As before, the playable teaser for Outbreak: Shades of Horror is still available for players to try via Steam, PlayStation, Xbox and Stadia.

The story for Shades of Horror centres on a cast of survivors as they fight to escape the city of Cypress Ridge during the early days of the zombie apocalypse. Characters from previous Outbreak games will be returning in Shades of Horror, along with the reveal of their origins. Each survivor will have their own backstory, explaining how they ended up in Cypress Ridge, as well as their own unique skills that will allow them to make their way through the city. Shades of Horror will encourage players to play as each of the survivors “in order to construct what has happened from bits and pieces of journal entries, recordings and radio station broadcasts scattered throughout the city.”

Outbreak: Shades of Horror is touted as a “love letter” to the Survival Horror games in the late 1990s and early 2000s. “Towards the end of this era, there was an emphasis on stories driven by multiple characters that utilized multiplayer co-op,” read the description on the Kickstarter page. “This model of storytelling was abandoned with the rise of action horror. This left a loyal fanbase (these developers included) desperate for someone to revisit the survival horror genre and expand on the untapped potential left in this style of play. With Outbreak: Shades of Horror, Dead Drop Studios harness this potential to craft an essential new entry in the survival horror genre.”

Seeing as this is a Kickstarter campaign, there will be stretch goals for Shades of Horror. Those haven’t been revealed as of yet, as the team wants to focus on fully funding the game first. However, from the teaser images, it would appear that crossplay is a possibility, along with what looks to be dinosaurs (?!).

Currently, you can try out a playable teaser for the game via Steam, PlayStation, Xbox and Stadia.

While there’s no information as of yet as to how you’ll be able to buy it, the new House of the Dead: Remake Limidead Edition will come with a few goodies for those keen on owning a physical copy of the game. In addition to the game on disc for the PS4 and Xbox One, the Limidead Edition will also include an exclusive lenticular slipcover, two character stands and a sticker sheet.

The House of the Dead: Remake was originally released on the Nintendo Switch digitally on April 7 of this year, with the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC via Steam, and Google Stadia following on April 28.

First released for the Nintendo Switch back on April 7, The House of the Dead: Remake takes the original Sega arcade classic and revamps it with new graphics and gameplay tweaks for a modern audience.

In addition, there will be a physical release for the Switch version of the game on May 26 in Europe and June 14 in North America. No word on if the PlayStation or Xbox versions will receive the same treatment.

There’s also been no update on the announced remake of The House of the Dead 2, which Forever Entertainment had announced at the same time as HOTD: Remake a few years ago.

According to the document, which mostly details the previous year’s events for the company as well as its future plans, one section (page 48, if you’re curious) mentions free DLC for both Monster Hunter Rise and the aforementioned Resident Evil Village. The document states that Capcom will “drive our customer management to understand the playing trends and preferences of users while also building a business model for online operations, taking into account the situation of our free additional DLC for titles such as Monster Hunter Rise and Resident Evil Village.”

Other than that paragraph, nothing else mentions any details for the DLC, including whether or not Capcom will adopt the model that they went with for a combination of free and paid DLC for Resident Evil VII. Then there was the hinting by voice actor Neil Newbon (who voiced Village‘s Karl Heisenberg) that he could be involved with Resident Evil again in some capacity, not to mention Ada being left on the cutting room floor for Village.

Regardless, it looks to be another “stay tuned” situation.

Resident Evil Village is out now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Google Stadia, and PC via Steam.

“Released in January 2017, Resident Evil 7 biohazard builds upon the series’ roots of fear, exploration and tense atmosphere,” explains Capcom in their news release. “The game’s system underwent a dramatic shift from its previous third-person camera to a new first-person perspective in order to provide an overwhelming, deeply immersive horror experience, garnering high praise from major review sites and other media.”

Subsequently, Japanese Switch owners have been enjoying a cloud-based version since May 2018, while the Stadia version was released earlier this year in April.

In case you’re curious, even with the milestone, Resident Evil 7 is still firmly in second place in Capcom’s “Platinum Titles” list behind Monster Hunter: World. The next closest Resident Evil entry would be the Resident Evil 2 remake, which should be hitting the 10 million mark in the very near future.

Resident Evil 7 is available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam.

“Hellraiser’s Pinhead is one of the most stunning and memorable characters among all the iconic killers of the horror genre”, says Dave Richard, Creative Director of Dead by Daylight. “Not only is he highly charismatic, but he also embraces deeply disturbing horror themes, so our fans have been requesting him for a long time. Bringing Pinhead into the Fog is a way for us to give fans something they want, while cementing our reputation as the Hall of Fame of Horror.”

In fact, Pinhead is currently available on the Dead by Daylight test servers, which in response fans have taken the opportunity to record some of Pinhead’s exploits.

While specifics as to what’s in store for fans wasn’t made available, the Hellraiser Chapter of Dead by Daylight will be available in September for the Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Steam, Windows Store, Xbox One as well as the Xbox Series. Dead by Daylight Mobile will also be getting in on the fun before the end of the year.

The story has you “squeezed into existence” from unusual material that has collapsed in on itself. Born into an alien world, you must survive the harsh world by crushing your foes with living weapons that mutate form and function. After which, you then consume their remains with a black hole to strengthen yourself “as you break apart a world of anatomical horror and intrigue.”

Over at the Resident Evil Modding Board, modder JTeghius Kittius has begun bringing Leon Kennedy into Village in the most efficient way possible: by snagging the Dead by Daylight model, and Frankensteining Leon’s head from the Resident Evil 2 remake onto the body. “I’m surprised that with the game being out for 2,5 months [sic] no-one has made a Leon mod yet, especially with how everyone said this game was very RE4 inspired,” says JTeghius in his forum post.

In all honesty, it looks much better than it sounds. The mod is using one of the 3rd-person camera mods to accomplish this, so expect the same issues as with the previous attempts at implementing a 3rd-person camera.

To get this mod going, you’ll need FluffyQuack’s fluffymanager. And, if you do watch the video below, JTeghius does warn people that he’s playing in Mercenaries Mode, so expect some spoilers if you haven’t had the chance to complete the game.

In a press release, PLAYSENSE creative lead Alex Zhdanovich stated that working with Clover Bite and Akupara was “a pure pleasure and a great experience” for the agency. “We went through several hundred games on various platforms before picking GRIME as it’s a special project sporting a unique setting and a huge potential. By creating this trailer, we meant to help develop the video game industry and support young indie-developers at the beginning of their journey.”

GRIME is due out on Google Stadia and PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store on August 2.

In a new press release, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and developer NetherRealm Studios announced that Mortal Kombat 11 has now sold over 12 million units. Furthermore, the total console sales of the franchise has now crossed over 73 million.

According to NetherRealm Studios creative director and Mortal Kombat co-creator Ed Boon, when the franchise first hit arcades 30 years ago, “I never dreamed it would grow into the franchise it is today with more than 73 million games sold. We have some of the most passionate fans in the world and we appreciate the support they have shown us over the years.”

 Additionally, Mortal Kombat Mobile has amassed 138 million installs, with millions of active users.

What’s next for Boon and company is anyone’s guess. There’s the rumour (perpetuated by Boon, of course) that NetherRealm is working away at a fighting game using Marvel Comics’ properties, but nothing has come of it (yet).

Meanwhile, Kojima Productions announced earlier that their debut game Death Stranding has hit a milestone of its own. In addition to a new interview with GamesIndustry.biz, the developer has announced that the game has sold over 5 million units across PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.

That number will only go up with the upcoming release of the Director’s Cut of Death Stranding for the PlayStation 5, which is expected on September 24.

Mortal Kombat 11 and its DLC Aftermath is available now on PC via Steam,  PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch.

Capcom’s justification for the delay this time is to allow the team to “deliver a smooth gameplay experience”. Capcom is planning to share updated launch details at a later date.

As for those who purchased a physical version of Resident Evil Village, Capcom recommends that you keep track of the included Resident Evil Re:Verse download code, or add it to your account now.

As reported by DSOGaming, a hacking group known as Empress successfully cracked Village and circumvented Capcom’s anti-tamper V3 protection, as well as the Denuvo security. By doing so, the game no longer suffers from stutters when killing zombies, watching cutscenes and other problem areas.

However, it would seem that the cracked version isn’t perfect. As noted in the video below, while the game does run smoother, animations are now missing when the players are attacked by Cassandra Dimitrescu. Still, one hopes that Capcom will eventually decide to remove the code that’s causing the performance issues.

After all, how else are players going to enjoy their mods effectively?

Obviously, things have slowed down since the game garnered 3 million sold in its first four days, but I doubt anyone would want to argue that 4.5 million units is a bad sales figure. Plus, we still have more Village on the way, so that number will be a distant memory not long after that.

Arguably one of the most anticipated chapters for Dead by Daylight, the new chapter features Nemesis as the Killer (known in-game as The Tyrant), while Leon Kennedy and Jill Valentine arrive as the new Survivors. With their arrival comes a new map, and new gameplay mechanics.

“The Resident Evil Chapter marks an important milestone for Dead by Daylight and we’re very moved to finally see it out!” says Dave Richard, Creative Director for Dead by Daylight. “On top of immersing fans in one of the most popular horror universes, we’re also introducing new dynamics such as the integration of AI-controlled characters. This will give players something completely new to discover and we can’t wait for them to finally experience it!”

The Resident Evil Chapter is available for US$11.99 for consoles and PC. Those who purchase the Resident Evil Chapter will get a free exclusive in-game charm: the Umbrella Corporation.

Dead by Daylight is available on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Google Stadia, and PC via Steam and the Windows Store.

In fact, Behaviour currently has the base game and several of the DLCs available for discount on digital stores now.

Of course, no details were revealed, so we just have to speculate as to what that might be. Will Ada Wong be brought back after she was cut from the original game? Hey, anything Capcom puts out will be welcome.

In addition, the delayed standalone multiplayer pack-in in Resident Evil Re:Verse will now be aiming for a July release. It’s still free, and is still being included with Resident Evil Village.

Once again, Resident Evil Village is available now on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, PC via Steam and Google Stadia.

Extraction has players assemble their team from the 18 Operators from Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege to launch incursions into containment zones that have been invaded by a lethal alien threat known as the Archæns. Each Operator has a specific set of weapons, gadgets, and abilities to master, allowing for limitless customizability.

Set in four regions across the US, containment zones are infested by the Archæns. Use your Operators’ abilities to overcome the situation to accomplish your objectives, and extract from the containment zone. The 12 uniquely designed maps feature procedurally-generated challenges, enemies, infestation, and increasing difficulty. The deeper you go, the greater the danger, but so are the rewards.

For existing owners of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege, purchasing Extraction will instantly unlock the entire roster of 18 operators from Siege as well as grant you the United Front cosmetic bundles in both games.

Produced by Gecco Corp (who also did that line of Robbie The Rabbit figures from Silent Hill 3), the 1:8 scale figurine of the vampire lady will come with a certificate of authenticity, and a signature from the Art Director who designed her (one would assume that would be Resident Evil Village‘s Art Director Tomonori Takano). The thing is, this is a one-of-a-kind figure, meaning that only one will be produced.

The video shows Lady D facing off against Bloodborne‘s Lady Maria in a theoretical 3-round “boss vs. boss” battle, Machinima style. That’s right, this unfortunately isn’t a straight-up gameplay mod for Bloodborne (though we so wish it was). It’s still damn cool that someone took the time to put this together, and makes you wish that From Software would actually give us a sequel to Bloodborne (or a least a PC port).

Of course, since Village was never really meant to be played from a third-person perspective, there are limitations/difficulties in getting the mod to work properly. As Fluffyquack details, the mod as it stands makes it next-to-impossible to interact with objects, due to the game calculating the interaction from the camera’s distance, not the player position. Worst of all, the camera looks in the wrong direction when having to do any sort of aiming, shooting or reloading.

Plus, as in DarknessValtier’s mod, there’s still the issue of Ethan not having a head. But that’s where character swapping mods come in.

Fluffyquack is unsure if they’ll be able to get it working properly, but as these things go, other modders will sometimes pick up the work to try and tackle it themselves to get a solution.

And hey, there are always other mods you can try out on the Steam version if you’re feeling like Village needs a bit of spontaneity. Resident Evil Village is out now on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and Google Stadia.

Thanks to Eurogamer for the heads up.

According to Capcom’s figures, the eighth main entry in the franchise has shipped and digitally sold over 3 million units since its release on May 7. By comparison, Resident Evil VII shipped 2.5 million units in the same timeframe.

Village still has a ways to go before catching RE7‘s cumulative 8.5 million units. In fact, the Resident Evil 2 remake may catch up to RE7 before Village, as it currently sits at 7.9 million units sold. All in total, the Resident Evil series has surpassed 100 million units.

Raaphorst took to Twitter and LinkedIn to voice his view that Capcom lifted his design of one of the creatures found in the film “completely without authorization or credit”.

MILD SPOILER ALERT: The creature in question is a monster found in Frankenstein’s Army with a plane propeller and engine for a head/torso. The one found in Village is a boss character with a similar configuration that you end up setting on fire, which coincidentally also happens in the film.

Apparently, this isn’t the only instance found in Village, either. A fan pointed out on Twitter other designs of Village monsters bearing similarities with Frankenstein’s Army monsters:

Capcom has yet to respond to the accusations.

Stop us if you haven’t heard this one before: Resident Evil Village is out now, and people are loving it. You know who else is loving it? Modders. We had a brief taste of what’s to come with the demo, and now that the game is out, people are letting their imaginations go.

For starters, we told you about the mod that brings Thomas The Tank Engine into Village…as Lady Dimitresu’s face. But now there’s more horrifying mods, such as JTegh’s Mini Me Chris, which turns baby Rose into Chris Redfield in a weird Austin Powers joke gone horribly wrong.

Want more? While this is not exactly horrifying, but you can now give Lady Dimitrescu “mommy glasses” with the Mommy Glasses mod. Quite stylish, and dare we say that Gary Oldman’s Dracula now has an appropriate counterpart? Missing Ada Wong after she was cut from the game? Why not bring her back with Stevebg23’s Lady Wong mod that gives Lady Dimitrescu an Ada makeover?

Of course, since everyone’s still going nuts over Lady D, there are more than a few mods over at Nexus Mods. Do you want to replace the suits of armor in Castle Dimitrescu with statues of the vampire lady herself? You can. Want to switch it up with the original scary stalker in Mr. X hunting you in Village? The Lady X mod has got you covered. Or perhaps you want to pay tribute to the late Jeanette Maus, and play as Cassandra Dimitrescu instead of Ethan?

Character swaps aren’t the only mods happening for Village, as you can also swap Ethan’s knife for a series of flyswatters. Of course, if you just wanted to get rid of the flies around the Dimitrescu daughters the easy way, you can use Raq’s mod for that.

There’s a lot to be found for Village‘s mods, and that list is only going to grow. So head on over to Nexus Mods, grab Fluffy Manager to actually get these mods working, and go to town.

Resident Evil Village is out now on PC (if you’re into mods) via Steam, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and Google Stadia.

IGN revealed that in ‘The Tragedy of Ethan Winters Artwork’, a gallery of artwork that’s part of the Trauma Pack DLC, there are a set of images showing concept designs for Ada Wong. However, in lieu of her iconic red dress, Ada is decked out in a Plague Doctor outfit reminiscent of something out of Bloodborne.

According to the accompanying description, early on in development, there were plans for a “mysterious masked person that saves Ethan.” It turns out that this was going to be Ada investigating the village. Ada was subsequently cut “due to a number of conflicting scenarios.”

Given how Village was already stuffed with personalities and plot, it’s understandable why Capcom chose to axe this one. However, one can always hope that Capcom would revisit the idea in the form of more DLC at some point.

Meanwhile, with Resident Evil Village on everyone’s mind this Friday, the crossover with Dead by Daylight and Resident Evil will be revealed on May 25th, with the chapter getting a release sometime next month.

The demo communicates with Capcom’s servers with a countdown timer. Users on the Steam forums were able to identify and alter the files with a trainer to simply reset the timer.

Of course, Capcom caught wind of this, and took down the server to prevent players from further exploiting the hack. The results of this were predictable:

Meanwhile, seeing as Village uses the RE Engine, you knew that someone was going to employ some of the modding techniques that we got with the Resident Evil 2 remake and Resident Evil 3. The modder known as Marcos certainly took advantage of it, bringing everyone’s favourite purple dinosaur into Village:

Marcos wasn’t the only one to pull some trickery, as another modder, DarknessValtier, was able to get a third-person camera working for Village. Guess we’ll have to wait for the inevitable full game version for that one.

Originally, the online companion multiplayer game was supposed to ship with Resident Evil Village. That is no longer the case, as the game appears to have been delayed to Summer 2021. No further information was announced in the emails.

Given that the open beta test last month had to be pulled due to matchmaking issues (though it subsequently came back later), this isn’t boding well for Capcom in their attempts to get Resident Evil successful in an online capacity.

Capcom took to Twitter to announce that the upcoming May demo, which was originally set for a 24-hour window availability, has now been extended from May 1 to May 9th (May 2 to May 10 for Europe). Unfortunately, the 60-minute time limit still remains, but you know that someone will try to find a way to extend that (much like they did with the One-Shot demo for the Resident Evil 2 remake).

As detailed during the last Resident Evil Showcase, Resident Evil Village‘s final demo will combine the PlayStation-exclusive Castle and Village demos into one 60-minute demo across all platforms. The demo’s availability will run from May 1 at 5 PM PDT until May 9 at 5 PM PDT in North America, UK players have it from May 2 at 1 AM BST until May 10 at 1 AM BST, and the rest of Europe will have the demo run from May 2 at 2 AM CEST until May 10 at 2 AM CEST.

The real deal arrives on May 7 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Google Stadia, and PC via Steam.

The ad in question (more like a music video, really) is done in a music video style that parodies Japanese pop music from the 1980s, sung by famous Enka singer Yoshi Ikuzo.

Capcom has taken Ikuzo’s iconic song “Ora Tōkyō sa Iguda”, redone the song’s lyrics and named it “Orera Konna Mura Iyada Lv.100.” The resultant video plays clips of Ikuzo performing and reacting to scenes found within Resident Evil Village.

And yes, even Lady Dimitrescu and her daughters show up (because at this point, why not?).

As mentioned, PlayStation owners have early access to this demo, which focuses on Castle Dimitrescu and everyone’s tall vampire lady, Alcina Dimitrescu, and her daughters. The rest of us will be getting the demo across all platforms over a 24 hour period, beginning on May 1 in North America.

Resident Evil Village arrives May 7 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Google Stadia, and PC via Steam.

Well, more accurately, the mod brings an outfit based on Lady Dimitrescu, with the main file of this mod coming with pre-made meshes that look as close as possible to Lady Dimitrescu. You’ll be able to craft the dress at the Chem Station.

Also, according to Vtaw, the dress uses the stock Fallout 4 physics, so you’re not going to be getting something like Skyrim‘s physics. But really, those of you fans grabbing this probably won’t care too much.

Resident Evil Village, which is getting another time-limited demo this month and in May, arrives May 7 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Google Stadia, and PC via Steam. Fallout 4 can currently be had on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Thanks to DSOGaming for the heads up.

The new demo will be available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Steam and Stadia, and will allow players to explore the village and castle segments of the game, but comes with a few restrictions. The demo will be limited to 60 minutes of playtime, and will be available for only 24 hours in each region. More info can be found on the official Resident Evil Village website.

In addition to the demo, Capcom has unveiled that the beloved Mercenaries Mode will be making its return in Village. In case you’re unaware, Mercenaries Mode has you battling against waves of enemies as one of several characters from the game. Survive, and you’ll be able to spend the cash you’ve earned to get new weapons and upgrades for the next round.

Resident Evil Village arrives May 7 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Google Stadia, and PC via Steam.

Part of that new upgrade system is the introduction of animal hunting. Aside from the werewolves and other monsters lurking about, you also have animals that you can hunt and butcher for meat. Of course, these animals won’t go down easily, so you’ll have to reserve your ammo, and make every shot count.

Once you’ve secured your kills, you can take these ingredients to The Duke’s Kitchen, where The Duke will exchange them for upgrades to Ethan’s arsenal.

If hunting isn’t your thing, you can also use lei, the game’s currency. You can pick up lei up from fallen enemies, and exchange that with The Duke for upgrades to power, rate of fire, reload speed, and ammo capacity. And yes, keep an eye out for hidden treasures that hold more lei.

Resident Evil Village is due out for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, PC via Steam, and Google Stadia on May 7.

According to Dusk Golem, after completing the main game, a new mode will be unlocked that randomizes items and enemies within the game. Capcom apparently had played with the idea of making a mode similar to Resident Evil 7‘s Ethan Must Die mode, but ended up expanding it into “an expansive difficulty mode” that opens up the game more than before, but also increases the difficulty along with the item and enemy randomization.

As before, Capcom has yet to acknowledge or confirm that this is occurring, but as pointed out before, Dusk Golem has been correct on these sorts of things in the past. Furthermore, with the second Resident Evil Showcase right around the corner, we could see this news dropped as part of the reveal (alongside the second demo).

Resident Evil Village arrives May 7 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Google Stadia, and PC via Steam.

According to Dusk Golem via Twitter, after Village and Resident Evil 9 (because come on, you know it’ll happen), Capcom will begin moving away from numbered entries. Instead, the series will shift towards self-contained stories.

Dusk Golem also claims that due to their proximity in terms of their development, Resident Evil 7, 8 and 9 will share a closely-connected story, with some unexplained elements in RE7 being explained in Village, for example. None of this has been verified by Capcom (obviously), who had to deal with a rather severe leak last year with regards to its upcoming titles.

And yes, if you’re wondering, Dusk Golem has been right in the past regarding rumours surrounding Resident Evil Village, so there is precedent. But until Capcom says anything (or another unfortunate leak happens), keep your salt handy.

Resident Evil Village drops on May 7 for Google Stadia, PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series.

The post Rumour: ‘Resident Evil’ Series Moving Away From Numbered Entries, Will Focus on Self-Contained Stories appeared first on Bloody Disgusting!.

For starters, the map of the village where the game takes place has been revealed, showing four major locations: Castle Dimitrescu (which is where the PS5 exclusive Maiden demo takes place), Moreau’s Reservoir, Heisenberg’s Factory (no Breaking Bad jokes), and House Beneviento.

According to director Morimasa Sato, Village actually shares similarities with Resident Evil 4 (which also started out in a rural village) in terms of its variety of gameplay and enemies. “When you hear the word ‘village’, you might imagine quaint houses lined up along a street, but that’s not really enough to make a videogame out of,” explains Sato. “Especially in a horror game, I think it’s important to keep providing new experiences along the way. Within the village, it’s important to keep delivering new surprises to the player.”

The other big news (and in another RE4 similarity) is Mother Miranda, who is worshipped by the villagers in Village (not unlike Los Iluminados and Sadler in RE4). Not much is known about Mother Miranda, other than the footage revealed so far of villagers chanting her name, and Lady Dimitrescu conversing with her over the phone.

Capcom has fortunately unveiled a portrait of the mysterious woman, which appears as a sort of religious iconography. Sato explains that she was named “mother” in the religious meaning of the word, but wouldn’t say much more in terms of what else that might mean.

“For Mother Miranda, I think it’s better for the players to find out for themselves by playing the game,” says Sato. “But I’ll say this: Mother Miranda and the inner side of her character are extremely important factors in the game.”

Another image shows Ethan and Chris Redfield (with Ethan’s baby) in front of Mother Miranda, who is wearing a mask that’s akin to a crow, which art director Tomonori Takano explains was intentional as the main motif for Mother Miranda’s design. “The mask resembles a crow’s beak,” Takano says. “As a symbol of horror, crows function as a theme for Village in its entirety as well, and they appear in the actual game. Since she has a symbolic role within the village, we implemented that same design theme for Mother Miranda.”

Obviously, Capcom is hesitant to reveal too much more, but they might also be waiting for the second Resident Evil Showcase happening next week.

Resident Evil Village arrives on Google Stadia, PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series on May 7, alongside Resident Evil RE:Verse.

Capcom has taken to Twitter to announce that due to the issues related to matchmaking, they’ve temporarily suspended the Open Beta until they fix the service. It seems that the curse of online Resident Evil games is still alive for the time being.

Resident Evil RE:Verse launches alongside Resident Evil Village on May 7 for PC via Steam, Google Stadia, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series.

Capcom made the announcement via Twitter that the Showcase will be broadcast on YouTube on April 15th at 3pm PT/6pm ET. They also dropped a teaser for the event, which is expected to have more goodies for fans.

MP1st also revealed that the demo itself is around 10GB, and contains that image of Chris spliced with a wolf’s head, which for now we can still only speculate what it’s about. Lastly, the files for the demo contain references to remote play functionality, as well as Vita controls.

Capcom had mentioned that a second demo not exclusive to the PS5 would be arriving this Spring. And unlike the Maiden demo, the new demo would focus solely on gameplay instead of being a graphical showcase.

No release date has been set for the demo, but seeing as we’re due for another Resident Evil Showcase later this month, you can bet that the demo will be part of that.

Resident Evil Village arrives on Google Stadia, PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series on May 7, alongside Resident Evil RE:Verse.

In addition to Village‘s art director Tomonori Takano sharing some concept pieces, he also once again dished on Lady Dimitrescu. To add to his previous reveal about her height, Takano has revealed that the towering vampire’s shoe size is 44 cm (17.3 inches), which is almost double the average women’s shoe size. Takano designed Lady Dimitrescu’s shoes based on a real pair of high heels, which he scanned and then digitally resized to match Dimitrescu’s height.

And yes, he provided a picture of the shoes.

In addition to shoes, Takano also talks about the origins of the villainess (in addition to the previous Morticia Addams/Elizabeth Báthory info), saying that the team initially had Resident Evil 7‘s Mia “and made her wear a dress and hat” in their early tests. “I thought that this would be enough to give her a ghost-like quality, but we couldn’t make her feel scary. Then, we decided to make the character model much larger. That was the beginning of Lady Dimitrescu.”

From there, Takano and director Morimasa Sato began developing the idea to create a castle environment for Dimitrescu, which originally was entirely populated by women. “The original concept was a castle populated only by women,” Sato recalls. “We tried a lot of different things in order to make the Countess scary and feel like a boss character. There were ideas to make her more creature-like as well, but in the end we felt that a towering woman was the most simple yet powerful thing we could do.”

The footage in question has Ethan trudging through Lady Dimitrescu’s dwellings (while avoiding her, no less), which involves him descending into the bowels of the castle and encountering some unsavoury types in the water-soaked underground passages.

No exact date has been announced for the showcase, though Capcom is playing it coy. “We don’t want to spoil any surprises, so we’ll leave it to all of you to speculate on what this upcoming presentation might contain.” At the very least, you can revisit the January showcase here.

Does it mean that we could be hearing more about the upcoming adaptations coming to Netflix (including the film reboot)? Will we hear more about the rumoured-but-not-officially-announced Resident Evil 4 remake? Start your speculation.
