Re Village Director The Biggest Surprise You Could Possibly Imagine Awaits Ethan Winters

In just over two months, Resident Evil fans will once again step into the shoes of Ethan Winters, the protagonist of Resident Evil VII. The new installment, Resident Evil Village, begins with him living peacefully in Eastern Europe alongside his wife Mia and his daughter Rosemary; however, none other than Chris Redfield (who himself was a protagonist of many previous Resident Evil games) appears to kidnap Rosemary, forcing Ethan Winters to purse Redfield into the titular village.

In the latest EDGE magazine (April 2021, Issue 356), Resident Evil Village director Morimasa Sato teased that fans can expect to find a huge surprise on Ethan’s path in the full game.

Sato-san also revealed that some CAPCOM developers would have wanted to go back to the traditional third-person viewpoint, but he pushed to keep Resident Evil Village a first-person game instead.

Of course, Resident Evil Village will feature plenty of horrifying moments, which will be all the more impressive to witness in the first-person view.

Resident Evil Village will be available starting May 7th for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X.
