Not everyone has access to the new Resident Evil Village demo due to its slightly complex release schedule, so Capcom decided to provide part of the experience to the whole audience with a celebrity twist.
In the videos below you’ll see popular cosplayer Enako and comedian Eiko Kano as they tackle the challenge. Will they freak out? That’d be a spoiler.
You can watch both videos for yourself, especially if you can’t yet get your hands on the new demo.
Resident Evil Village will release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, Xbox One, and Steam on May 7, 2021.
If you want to see more, you can enjoy the original announcement, a batch of screenshots, a recent cinematic trailer, another video, the latest trailer, and the latest screenshots.
If you’re unfamiliar with Resident Evil Village, here’s an official description from Capcom.
Set a few years after the critically acclaimed Resident Evil 7 biohazard, the all-new storyline begins with Ethan and his wife Mia living peacefully in a new location, free from their past nightmares. Just as they are building their new life together, tragedy befalls them once again. Chris Redfield, the legendary hero from the Resident Evil™ series who made a brief appearance in Resident Evil 7 biohazard, is reacquainted with the couple and horribly disrupts their life, leaving Ethan devastated and thrown into an entirely new nightmare.
The first-person action in Resident Evil Village begins when players assume the role of a distraught and shattered Ethan as he seeks to uncover the mysterious new horrors that plague a once peaceful village. Throughout this terrifying journey, players will fight for every breath as they are hunted by vicious new enemies that have infested the snow-capped locale. Channeling the capabilities of next generation consoles, the detailed realism and relentless feeling of fear will increase with each desperate battle for survival, while moments of calm will leave players wondering what new horrors await.
