CAPCOM has warned fans of the Resident Evil franchise to stay wary of scam mails. Resident Evil Village, the latest title of the franchise, is yet to get a launch date. However, with early access coming up soon, a lot of fraudulent emails are floating around.
It might make the day for a fan if they receive an email that says “Early Access” for their favorite title. However, CAPCOM has figured out that all such emails are phishing attempts by illegal third parties.

Ethan Winters to return in Resident Evil Village
Resident Evil Village will continue from where Resident Evil 7 left off. It will also mark the return of Ethan Winters, the fan-favorite American systems engineer. During an interview with PlayStation Official Magazine, producer Peter Fabiano spoke about the character.
“The team grew quite attached to Ethan as a character, so we knew we wanted to continue his story arc. We wanted to continue to have players experience the game through the eyes of protagonist Ethan Winters. This is a continuation of Resident Evil 7: Biohazard after all.”
Peter believes that long time fans are in for a treat with the upcoming title.
“Since we are constantly sharing information across Resident Evil teams, that really helped inform us in making what we consider the best survival horror game to date.”
Players and fans of the franchise will get to play the latest title on PlayStation 5/4 and Xbox Series X/S/One and PC, once the game releases on May 7, 2021.
