TheÂResident EvilÂseries has had its ups and downs over the nearly 25 years of its existence. However, now it’s almost undeniable that the series is having a resurgence in both popularity and quality ever since the terrifyingÂResident Evil 7: Biohazardbrought the series back to its roots in 2017. Today, Capcom announced that it would be hosting aResident EvilÂshowcase to show off the next game in the series and even moreÂREnews.

" target="_blank" rel=“noopener noreferrer”>Announced on Twitter today, the event will be held virtually on January 21 and will be hosted by Brittney Brombacher ofÂWhat’s Good Gamespodcast fame. The showcase will feature a new trailer forResident Evil Villageas well as new gameplay footage from the game. The trailer for the event also mentions “more news related to theÂResident EvilÂfranchise.” When this was mentioned, a logo sporting a large number 25 and text that reads “Resident Evil25th Anniversary” appears. Hopefully, Capcom intends to celebrate the history of the franchise with something special.
Based on a leak from Capcom in November of last year, it seems as if we don’t need theÂResident EvilÂshowcase to know that the next installment will be coming out in April of this year. However, Capcom has not officially said anything about its release yet other than it’s slotted for this year.
Resident EvilÂVillageÂmade its debut into the gaming world at thePlayStation5 reveal event last June. It’s unclear if its place in the video among other PlayStation exclusives means that we won’t be seeingResident Evilon the Xbox Series X|S at launch. It would be the first console-exclusive entry in the franchise sinceÂResident Evil 4Âon the Gamecube. That said,ÂRE4Âended up on just about anything with a screen so who knows.
