It’ll be free to owners of Resident Evil Village.
You can argue that a Resident Evil game doesn’t require a multiplayer component, but Capcom is determined to keep making them anyhow. Resident Evil Re:Verse is the Most Up-to-date and it’ll come free with Resident Evil Village–like Resident Evil Resistance came free with the RE3 Remake. This newest multiplayer offering is a deathmatch and looks fairly simple, with the added twist that felled players become a bioweapon, allowing them to continue wreak havoc on the map.
It supports between four and six players and matches past five minutes, and you’ll have the ability to play as show stars Chris and Claire Redfield, Jill Valentine and Ada Wong, amongst others. Throughout matches, you can pick up Virus Capsules so that when you’re killed and converted to a bioweapon, you’ll be an even stronger one.
It will be intriguing to see if Re:Verse fares better than previous multiplayer excursions. Resistance proved to be a promising 4v1 co-op style which followed the template set by Dead by Daylight and Friday the 13th, but it didn’t exactly set the world on fire. However, it was better than Umbrella Corps and a host of different efforts.
