Resident Evil Village Goes Back To Last-Gen With New Gameplay

Resident Evil

Resident Evil Village gameplay is here to show off how this Resident Evil title will look and play on the last-gen systems

It was interesting back when Resident Evil Village was first announced and we had word that it was going to be a PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC exclusive. Then, recently, Capcom shocked many out there that it was going to be on the PS4 and Xbox One too. Almost no one is going to miss out on this Resident Evil now and that is always a nice thing. Even if it does bring in the concerns on how it will look and function on those platforms too. The worry can be put aside just a bit as we do have some gameplay to see how it all looks on the PS4 Pro now.

There really is no way to truly see how it all flows visually with the way the video is processed here but it is a whole new segment for Resident Evil Village to look at that also highlights the countess and some sewer segments. That is the better look that we have to get a feel for how the story is going to go and how some of the enemies will pop up. Also, there is a hint at a bigger villain out there in Resident Evil that she answers to after Ethan has taken out some of the daughters in the mix. Have a look and see just what we are talking about here and get ready for May 7th to finally come to us.
