No, we never see his face (because, as a player, he's supposed to be our stand-in) but we do learn how he's been so durable, so super-healy, so nigh unkillable over the course of these two games. In what's arguably the game's biggest reveal (though I'd argue against that being the case), we learn a rather staggering fact about our ol' buddy Ethan Winters. While Miranda's plan didn't exactly work out, neither did Ethan's - not totally anyway - but he was able to ultimately save Rosemary. Even as a baby, she could survive being crystallized and chopped up, going so far as to be reborn thanks to a massive sacrifice on the part of the village folks at the hands of Mother Miranda and the Four Lords. But it suffices to say that Rosemary is no ordinary human. Well, the Winters Family has quite a few secrets, it seems we'll get to Ethan's big reveal in a moment. And Ethan learns the fate of his baby early in the game, and yet pushes on to gather all four of her parts. It requires Rosemary being crystallized and having her body separated into four parts, stored in vessels temporarily granted to the Four Lords of the Village. That sacrifice mostly takes place off-screen, and a good thing, too. (Stick with me on this one.) While Chris was actually attempting to keep Rosemary safe, Mother Miranda's attack allowed her to steal Rosemary away for a ritual sacrifice she had long been waiting for. Little Rosemary features at the beginning and end of the game, though we only see pieces of her throughout the main game itself. (With me so far?) This is where Resident Evil: Village drops player protagonist Ethan to begin his new journey, in search of answers and to rescue baby Rosemary. However, while on transit to a safehouse, the convoy carrying the Winters Family was attacked by none other than Mother Miranda herself, who had only been pretending to be the corpse of Mia Winters.
It's revealed that this mysterious woman impersonated Mia (for reasons we'll explain later) in an effort to spirit baby Rosemary away from Ethan, but Chris and the B.S.A.A. It turns out that the real Mia is very much alive and is being held captive by a powerful entity known as Mother Miranda. Hell of a way to start your Resident Evil: Village adventure.Īnd yet Mia's story is but the beginning of the mysteries to be solved in this game. Chris and the Hound Wolf Squad broke into the Winters Family home where Chris executed Mia and kidnapped both Ethan and baby Rosemary. busted in on the Winters Family life in ways neither of them would have ever expected. Things were so relatively normal, in fact, that Ethan and Mia even started a family, raising baby Rosemary together, at least for a few months. Įthan and Mia were able to resettle in Europe, far from the Dulvey Incident in Louisiana, thanks in part to the heroic actions of Chris Redfield and the protective members of the B.S.A.A. It also continues, and partly concludes, the story of a new family introduced in Biohazard: The Winters, starting with. RE8 continues with the feel of RE7 by keeping these mechanics intact. We traded the over-the-shoulder, third-person-perspective action-shooter / puzzle-solver for an immersive first-person perspective focusing on survival, item management, and unforgettable in-your-face moments. That game introduced a shift in the Resident Evil experience that fans around the world had gotten used to.
Those who remain spoilers series#
The eighth installment in Capcom's hit series follows up on the previous game, Resident Evil VII: Biohazard, which was also written by Sato though directed by Koushi Nakanishi. Why? Because they reshape the history of Resident Evil as we know it and pave the way for the future of the franchise. It's not our aim to spoil your experience with the game if you haven't played it yet (and if you haven't, what are you doing here? Turn back now!) but rather to illuminate the twists, turns, and shocking reveals that Morimasa Sato's epic adventure laid out for us.
Resident Evil Village has been live in the world for a little while now, so it's time to go all out on spoilers.
