THREE YEARS LATER, What Made Resident Evil 8: Village One Hell of a Game?

The Resident Evil franchise has delivered a number of bangers in the form of Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil 2 Remake, and even in that mighty company, Resident Evil Village holds a special place. Launching in 2021, the survival horror title was met with widespread acclaim from critics and audiences alike, and has since gone on to sell impressive numbers, and looking back, it’s hard not to say that all of that success has been well deserved.

Best described as a theme park of horrors, not only did Resident Evil Village boast an impressive variety in both styles of horror and types of gameplay experiences, but it also captured the genre’s many different flavors quite effectively- and it did all of that without feeling like it was lacking cohesion. Here, with Resident Evil Village now three years old, we’re going to talk about all of that and more.
