About Game: Resident Evil Village[a] is a 2021 survival horror game developed and published by Capcom. It is the sequel to Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (2017). Players control Ethan Winters, who searches for his kidnapped daughter in a village filled with mutant creatures. Village maintains survival horror elements from previous Resident Evil games, with players scavenging environments for items and managing resources. However, it adds more action-oriented gameplay, with higher enemy counts and a greater emphasis on combat.
Resident Evil Village was announced at the PlayStation 5 reveal event in June 2020 and was released on May 7, 2021, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. It received generally favorable reviews, with praise for its gameplay, setting, and variety, but criticism for its puzzles, boss fights and performance problems on the Microsoft Windows version; the increased focus on action divided opinion. Resident Evil Village won year-end accolades including Game of the Year at the Golden Joystick Awards.
Gameplay: Like its predecessor, Resident Evil 7, Resident Evil Village uses a first-person perspective. It is set in a snowy explorable Eastern European village. The inventory management mechanic is very similar to that of Resident Evil 4, featuring a briefcase and the ability to move and rotate items for better storage space. Players can buy supplies, weapons, items from a merchant, called the Duke. The players can also hunt animals in the village and have them cooked into dishes by the Duke. Eating side dishes allows the player to gain certain advantages such as decreasing the damage taken while blocking. Players can manually save the game progress by locating and using typewriters, which replaces the tape recorders seen in Resident Evil 7.
Setting: Resident Evil Village is set three years after the events of Resident Evil 7. Ethan Winters returns as the protagonist. Ethan has been living with his wife Mia and 6-month-old daughter Rosemary when Chris Redfield and his men suddenly appear, murder his “wife” in cold blood, and kidnap him and his baby daughter, bringing them to a mysterious European village. Ethan has to traverse the village to rescue Rosemary.
Development: Resident Evil Village was in development for approximately three and a half years before its announcement in June 2020. Capcom asked the Resident Evil team to start development on August 8, 2016, while Resident Evil 7 was still about a half a year from release, according to director Morimasa Sato. Without having RE7's release to judge its success, the team kept the initial designs around the core survival horror gameplay roots that had been in Resident Evil 4 and had been a return to form in RE7. During this early period they came up with the concept of the village as the central theme, inspired by RE4, where its village was also a central location as well as many of the gameplay mechanics established by the title.
Release and Promotion: To promote the game, Capcom announced that a special lottery event will be held to give away a free Resident Evil Village acrylic jigsaw puzzle if Twitter users use the hashtag #VILLAGE予約. Lady Dimitrescu, a character who rose in popularity prior to the game's release, is featured extensively in promotional material and merchandise prior to the game's launch. On April 30, 2021, a puppet show featuring the four lords was released on YouTube, with each puppet claiming that they are not scary.
Reception: Resident Evil Village received "generally favorable reviews" on all platforms from critics, according to review aggregator Metacritic.Several critics noted the more action-centered gameplay in comparison to Resident Evil 7 and compared the switch in direction to that of Resident Evil 4.
Sales: Resident Evil Village shipped over three million copies in its first four days of release, becoming the third-fastest-selling title in the Resident Evil series, tied with 2019's Resident Evil 2. At the same time, Capcom announced the series had sold a total of 100 million units since its debut in 1996. From May 3 to May 9, 2021, Famitsu rated the PlayStation 4 version at first place in the Japanese gaming charts, selling 111,171 copies in a week. The PlayStation 5 version sold 38,713 copies, reaching fourth place in the charts. Resident Evil Village was also the best-selling game across the US and the UK during the month of May 2021. The game had sold over five million copies worldwide by October 2021. It went on to become the eighth best-selling game of 2021 in the US.
