Resident Evil Village Is Out Now: Here's What Comes in Each Edition

2 years 10 months ago
Resident Evil Village is now available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. If you buy the PS4 or Xbox One version, the next-gen upgrade is free within the same console family. It's available in several editions; you can find what comes in each one below. If you're sitting on the fence about picking this game up, check out our Resident Evil Village review for a full rundown of what our critic thought of it.

Resident Evil Village (Standard Edition)

The standard edition of Resident Evil Village just comes with the game itself, but that's all you really need, isn't it? Note that the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions are holding steady at $59.99, rather than the $69.99 price of some other "next-gen" games.

Resident Evil Village & Resident Evil 7 Complete Bundle

resident-evil-bundle If you missed Resident Evil 7 and want to play both games, you can buy the digital-only Resident Evil Village and Resident Evil 7 Complete bundle. It's worth noting that Resident Evil 7 is available in the PlayStation Plus Collection and on Xbox Game Pass, so if you have either of those services, you already have access to the game.

What Is Resident Evil Village?

Resident Evil Village is a sequel to Resident Evil 7, so once again you play as Ethan Winters, a poor unfortunate soul who arrives at a castle to rescue his daughter only to find a new group of vicious, supernatural characters who are eager to torture and kill him. This includes the tall vampire lady who became a meme the moment she made her debut, as well as her daughters, who are apparently made of bugs that can... go under your skin? It's all a bit over the top, but that's what fans love. Like RE7, Village is a first-person shooter, but this time they've added a blocking mechanic that will play a key role in combat. They've also added crafting and an RE4-like inventory system. PlayStation 5 owners can download a demo now, but a different demo is planned later for the previous-gen consoles.
