Resident Evil Village

Resident Evil Village follows up the events of Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, again putting players into the first-person perspective of Ethan Winters. Under protection by Chris Redfield and his team, Ethan, his wife Mia, and their newborn daughter Rose, have been relocated to Europe to start a new life. However, after Chris and his team inexplicably attack their home, Mia is presumed dead, Rose is missing, and Ethan finds himself in a mysterious village. After being attacked by mysterious werewolf-like creatures, Ethan sets off to save his daughter by facing off with a new mysterious cult.
