Starting with Resident Evil 7, the new title of the Capcom horror saga, Resident Evil Village, has seen the famous series move from third-person view to the first person.

Despite this, the curiosity of fans about the possibility of being able to play the new adventure of Ethan Winters has still remained, as the recent Resident Evil Village mod suggests.

In this sense, the modder Fluffyquack has created a mod that allows you to play the new title behind the protagonist and not from his point of view, in a similar way to the two remakes mentioned above.

The modder “limited” himself to moving the camera behind Ethan, showing that the developers paid great attention to the animations of the protagonist despite the fact that the title was designed for the first person.

Capcom had asked its developers to start the development of the new title six months before the release of Resident Evil 7, which left the team dumbfounded about the direction the company wanted to take. since the seventh chapter was the first Resident Evil in the first person and there was no certainty about the type of reception of the public.

Resident Evil Village is available in physical and digital stores from May 7, 2021. The game has been published on both new generation and old-gen platforms, that is PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Google Stadia, and Windows PC (Steam). For owners of the older generation versions, it is also possible to switch to the next-gen version via a free update.
