Resident Evil Village, the eighth game in the main event series of zombies and corporate conspiracies, will officially launch on May 7, 2021. Hey that’s this year! Revealed during the Resident Evil Showcase digital event, the release date also came with a pleasant bonus surprise, as the game will have a large rollout on current and last-gen systems.

January’s a bit of a dry month, but for the rest of the year? There’s some dang good content on the way. Arkane’s version of Groundhog Day, Ubisoft’s return to madcap acid trips with guns, and the twilight of the gods boy, are just some of the highlights on the horizon. So here’s a rundown, of what to expect this year.

It’s finally time. What has been the most arduous waiting game in next-generation console history might finally change tonight with the latest PlayStation 5 Showcase from Sony. We’ll be live-blogging the event, which will run for around 40 minutes and is likely to include a new look at previously announced games, possibly a few surprises and the news that everyone is waiting for: A price and a release date for the PS5.

Leakier than a cheese grater bucket! Resident Evil 3’s remake is barely a week old and news of the next proper game in the series just doesn't seem to be slowing down any time soon. If you haven’t had enough of salt-pinching rumour-mongering, here’s a new for you! According to Biohazardcast and their sources (recent Capcom playtests and emails), the game that would be Resident Evil Revelations 3 is still on track for release.
