Resident Evil 8 “Village”
A Resident Evil in the Middle Ages?
AestheticGamer aka Dusk Golem strikes again confirming us, not only the arrival of a new Resident Evil, but also numerous details. Let’s not waste time and let’s go and see them immediately!

sequence where you're in a village with multiple routes trying to make your way to a Castle, being attacked by Beast Men, zombies in armor with swords, and a Witch that laughs a lot. The Witch is unkillable but turns into a swarm of insects if you shoot at her enough, the swarm

of enemies is way too much for you to handle and in the sequence you barricade and push through trying to get to the safety of the castle. It's not a very psychological horror sequence at all, but the game is paced to mix up more intense sequences with quieter moments. It should

still very clearly be a Resident Evil game, just a different kind of Resident Evil game tackling some different things than they usually do.

A village with a road leading to a castle, beastmen, zombies with swords in armor, a witch who turns into a swarm of insects! Maybe not the usual Resident Evil but honestly after these revelations we are no longer in the skin waiting for Capcom to confirm these leaks.
