As mentioned from PS5 review. Since day one release been having amazing gaming experience although wish it were on PS5. Playing on PS4 PRO still looks and plays amazingly well. Preordered this game and happy with my purchase. Deluxe edition came with some small DLC goodies which you can download via codes. Capcom did an Awesome job with this game so far although different lore still good. Thank you Best Buy for this purchase.

Been a fan of the RE series since I was little, and this one is easily in my top 5! RE Village has great gameplay(and replay value), story, more enemy variety, puzzles, memorable characters and environments, and more. I'd recommend playing 7 first if you haven't, too!

Following up from the events of Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, Village sees Ethan Winters once again dragged into the depths of horror as newly formed family are torn away from him by outside forces, prompting him to explore a mysterious village whose dark past is greatly tied to the world of Resident Evil. From lycans, vampiric ghouls, and other monstrosities, the enemy variety will see players having to think smartly with their choices with the return of the weapon upgrade system seen in classics like RE4, as well as hunting for treasures to further enhance their arsenal. An excellent blend of horror and action that feels like a successor to Resident Evil 4, while expanding on the first-person style introduced in RE7, fans of the series will have a lot to enjoy, as well as a host of goodies to unlock for more replayability.

Story for this game is great and gameplay is perfect. I can not wait to see where they take the main line story next!

I'll start this review with the fact that I'm biased towards horror games. From the cheesy to the twisted and terrifying, I can't get enough. I'll admit, when I first saw the trailer for this game last year at the Playstation event, I watched it 30 times over analyzing every bit because I was so excited. And now that I've beat it twice, it is BETTER than I expected. Though I love the third person perspective in gaming, they make the first person work so well. Gunplay is fun and snappy. I love the variety in enemy types and the way you have to think on your feet to defeat some of them. I ADORE the return of a merchant and the upgradable gun system. It makes me feel like I'm making progress in the game and not just moving from one area to another. I love the lords (Lady Dimitrescu has my heart) and their environments. Each area feels unique and special (though I wish some lasted longer). And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Bloodborne influence in the castle area. Without spoilers, I loved the story. It was gripping and engaging. It was so good that I could not stop playing once I started for the first time. It was well worth the loss of sleep. As the Youtuber DreamcastGuy put it, Resident Evil Village is an almost perfect horror game, and I cannot agree more. I could gush about how much I love this game for hours, but save yourself the time and just buy it. It's worth the pricetag, especially with the replay value and added mercenaries mode. Treat yourself to a great horror experience. You deserve it :)
