The inventory management mechanic is similar to that of Resident Evil 4, featuring a briefcase and the ability to move and rotate items for better storage space. Similar to Resident Evil 4 (2005), makeshift barricades can be used to fend off enemies. The game's primary enemies, the werewolf-like Lycans, are not only agile and intelligent, but can wield weapons and attack in packs, forcing the player to rethink their strategy on whether to use sparse ammunition, use melee combat, or simply run away. Compared to Biohazard, the game is more action focused, with protagonist Ethan Winters now equipped with more combat skills due to military training. Structures and buildings in the central village can be climbed and used to fight enemies. It is set in a snowy explorable Eastern European village, in Romania, described as "pulled straight from the Victorian era" and much larger and more immersive than its predecessor. Like its predecessor, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, Resident Evil Village uses a first-person perspective.
The game sold over seven million units by January 2023.
Resident Evil Village won year-end accolades including Game of the Year at the Golden Joystick Awards. It received generally favorable reviews, with praise for its gameplay, setting, and variety, but criticism for its puzzles, boss fights, and performance issues on the Windows version the increased focus on action divided opinions. Resident Evil Village was announced at the PlayStation 5 reveal event in June 2020 and was released on for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Stadia, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, followed by a macOS version and a cloud version for Nintendo Switch in October 2022. However, it adds more action-oriented gameplay, with higher enemy counts and a greater emphasis on combat. Village maintains survival horror elements from previous Resident Evil games, with players scavenging environments for items and managing resources.
Players control Ethan Winters, who searches for his kidnapped daughter in a village filled with mutant creatures. It is the sequel to Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (2017). Resident Evil Village is a 2021 survival horror game developed and published by Capcom.
