"Resident Evil Village is the perfect mix of creepy tension that the early Resident Evil games are known for, and the over-the-top action of the more ridiculous and fun titles are known for. It retains the first-person perspective of the seventh game, giving you an up-close look at the terrors before you. But unlike Ethan's first rodeo, he seems much more capable this time around."
"Ammo is plentiful, and firepower packs a much bigger punch. In the same way Resident Evil 5 escalated many of the same scenarios from Resident Evil 4, Village is a more action-packed take on Resident Evil 7's slow burn. If you're someone who's stayed away from the series because of how scary it can be, Village may be a perfect entry point for the series. You'll still have a few jump scares to contend with. But you'll be prepared to defend yourself most of the time."
Resident Evil Village continues Ethan Winters' story after Resident Evil 7, beginning with the brutal murder of his wife by tactical soldiers led by Chris Redfield and the kidnapping of Ethan and his six-month-old daughter. A mysterious force separates Ethan from his baby, sending him to a nearby village where he confronts twisted entities while searching for his child. The game retains a first-person perspective and combines creepy tension with over-the-top action, offering plentiful ammunition and more potent weaponry. Village represents a more action-focused evolution of the previous game and features four notable boss encounters. The balance of jump scares and defensive readiness makes the game accessible to players wary of pure horror while retaining intense moments.
