Announced for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC, Resident Evil: Village is a next-generation exclusive and will launch in 2021. The game will be a direct sequel to Resident Evil 7: Biohazard and follows returning protagonist Ethan Winters as he’s thrust into a brand new nightmare a few years after Ethan and Mia were rescued from the Baker family by Chris Redfield and Blue Umbrella . Longtime series protagonist Chris Redfield will also return for Resident Evil: Village , teased to be playing a potential villain role and sets off a new chain of events that land Ethan in a mysterious medieval village somewhere in Eur
Judging from the trailers we’ve seen thus far, Breath of the Wild 2 is going to be rather similar to its predecessor – at least in terms of moment-to-moment gameplay. The version of Hyrule we explored in the last game is making a return, with Link stumbling across familiar landmarks and enemies with an outfit and movements we recognise from the last game. I imagine towns have been rebuilt and the region is a little more alive now Calamity Ganon has been vanquished, but the layout is likely similar. Because of this, the way in which we explore this world should remain recognisable, so returning players feel welcome and newcomers aren’t alienated by a sequel that challenges some of its younger sibling’s most daring and creative ideas.
The larger development team makes sense given the length of the game compared to RE 2 and RE3 , and supports additional leaks that Resident Evil 4 would have an “expanded story.” According to Twitter user AestheticGamer1, another known source for leaks with a good reputation in the industry, RE4 Remake will focus on expanding the story of the original game and players can expect to see more and larger changes than anything done in RE2 or RE3 . One example given related to the character Dr Salvador, who is said to be getting more screentime and an expanded backstory in the RE4 rema
Resident Evil 3 Remake , still fresh from release in April, has successfully continued to enrich the Resident Evil universe by recreating past installments of the series. With a rumored Resident Evil 4 Remake in the works, and potentially new story elements that will link the plot to the Nemesis monster in Resident Evil 3 , there is still plenty in Resident Evil’ s past worth delving into with more insi
It does something that a remake or remaster can never do. No Hit Run matter how much Mass Effect Legendary Edition or Spyro Reignited may look like how we remember them, they’ll never be able to capture the experience of playing games as a kid. Revisiting classics through remasters and remakes definitely induces nostalgia, and they have the power to trigger all manner of memories and feelings from the past, but a fresh coat of paint just isn’t enough to truly bring me back. Resident Evil 4 VR, despite it being a completely different format, has moved me in ways a normal remake never could. This game makes me regress, and from talking to other people and watching streamers play it, it seems to be doing the same thing to everyone that grew up with Leon’s Spanish advent
I can’t play the Spyro trilogy for the first time again, nor can I approach it with the same innocence and sense of wonder that I did when I was ten years old. I still love the series, but games have changed a lot since Spyro first came out. There have been 20 years of evolution and innovation since Spyro the Dragon was made, and I’ve seen how games have been refined and enhanced since then. I’ve changed a lot too. I’m a critic now, and I pick games apart and analyze them for a living. I can revisit Spyro from a new perspective, but now I experience it as an echo of the original – a snapshot of my childh
Initial reports regarding the existence of Resident Evil 8 can be traced back to the website Biohazard Declassified from as early as January 2020 . The original leak claimed that name of the sequel would be called Resident Evil: Village , with the roman numerals ‘VIII’ hidden in the game’s title, signifying that it would be the eighth mainline entry in the franchise. RE8: Village would feature multiple new enemy types including “wolf-like creatures that will attack the player in certain areas,” a persistent shadowy female that follows the player similar to Mister X and Nemesis, and multiple witches that hunt Ethan. In terms of location, RE8 starts in a village and leads up to a castle, with a medieval setting and rural, snowy, and mountainous terr
The removal of design decisions previously viewed as irksome would undermine so much of what Breath of the Wild managed to achieve, and the last thing I want to see is Nintendo steering its formula in a direction that abides by more traditional genre conventions. Assassin’s Creed and similar games of this ilk are arguably more akin to content mill, built to draw you in for hundreds of hours even if much of that time is filled with uninspired busywork. The time you spend with the game is what matters, and Breath of the Wild managed to challenge a system that has become increasingly tired in the eyes of players. Its sequel needs to continue chasing that ambition, and not compromise on its own design ethos.
