‘Resident Evil Village’ Launch Trailer Focuses on Story

Really, what more can be said about Resident Evil Village?You’ve read our review (we love it, by the way). You’ve shelled out for the Japanese Collector’s Edition, you’ve watched Capcom’s wacky ads, and you’ve played the demo. Hell, you even want the standee that I’m pretty sure isn’t for sale!

So really, is there any more to say with Capcom revealing the launch trailer this morning? Absolutely. It’s only 30 seconds, but it nicely boils down what you’ve got to do in the game.

Resident Evil Village sees the return of Resident Evil VII‘s Ethan Winters, who has been living with his wife Mia and daughter Rosemary. Out of nowhere, Chris Redfield appears and kidnaps Ethan and his daughter to a remote European village located in Romania. Ethan must now search for answers in a village that is governed by four different lords, all of whom are governed by a mysterious Mother Miranda.

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

And yes, someone already did mod Thomas The Tank Engine into the game.
