Capcom is looking to bring gamers and fans alike a new Resident Evil game sometime in 2021. Specifically, this new Resident Evil game will rock the moniker “Village,” following Ethan Winters and Chris Redfield three years after the events of Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. However, we now know that the game in question is 60 percent complete as of this writing.
Whether you are cautious or excited for Resident Evil Village, know that development is moving forward on the next installment in the Resident Evil series of games where more info is due out this August.
The above information comes from publication site gamingbolt.com, which sources Twitter user BlackKite’s latest findings. Said Twitter user currently has a translation up on a recent Famitsu piece regarding Resident Evil Village that relays the following info:
-We didn’t name it RE8 bc we want ppl to recognize one more protag: Village. So pls call it RE Village instead of RE8
-Take a deep look at trailer & you can guess which RE7 route is taken
-The village is somewhere in Europe
-Improved Isolated View
-Dev at 60%, next info in August pic.twitter.com/mrxK0zpzUX— 黒凧 BlackKite (@bk2128) July 1, 2020
BlackKite expands on the piece pertaining to Resident Evil Village and offers up a Q&A segment that covers the game’s name and some tidbits on Ethan and Chris:
Now that the magazine is out (https://t.co/Z9Xpik4NG3), here’s an attempt for direct translation of the “RE8 or RE Village” questions.
Also found more questions related to Chris & Ethan that sound rather interestingBTW Pragmata didn’t even have a dev progress percentage shown pic.twitter.com/UIHf5NVhV2
