How Resident Evil Village Will Make the Most of PlayStation 5’s Powerful Hardware

The excitement continues to build as the launch of the next-gen consoles edges ever closer. Unfortunately for fans of the Resident Evil franchise, Capcom has yet to reveal a release date for the upcoming installment of the franchise, Village. However, PlayStation 5 has several other titles accompanying its release that, more or less, makes up for it. 

While they wait, fans can rest easy knowing the new title will play very well on the upcoming generation of consoles, according to PlayStation’s store page.

The new title will make the most of the new hardware, particularly its native solid-state drive for fast load times and the refined haptic feedback mechanism that the new DualSense controller boasts. It will also support 4K with HDR and ray tracing.

Furthermore, PS5’s Tempest 3D AudioTech will play a massive role in enhancing the horror overtone of the title.

Moreover, there is a good possibility that the title will also roll out for PS4 and Xbox One. But the older consoles might not have the hardware capabilities for a faster reload time that both the Xbox Series S/X and PS5 boast of.

Another interesting character who also appeared in Resident Evil 7 will make his way to the new title. Chris Redfield will reportedly have a bigger and better role compared to the previous title. However, his purpose and role in the game aren’t clear yet.

We’re looking at a 2021 window of release for the title. But we’ll have to wait for an official word for confirmation. Until then, keep following this space for more updates!
