Resident Evil Village review: A must-play experience, even if it isn't perfect
Lady Dimitrescu: one of the cast of the new Resident Evil game, Village.
Imagine a parallel universe, where Tim Burton was a game designer. Influenced by Metal Gear Solid and the great Hideo Kojima, Burton would lean more heavily into horror, creating a game where Kojima’s legendary cinematic flair would merge with Burton’s macabre imagination.
That game might well have been Resident Evil Village. Designed like a fairy tale, Village is a work of exceptional imagination and a completely new take for the iconic series. Gone are the trope zombies and Umbrella Corporation, replaced by a wicked witch and her four supernatural lords, each one representing a different form of horror.
