This time around, the game will offer more freedom to players than RE 7. Moreover, Resident Evil 8: Village will delve deeper into the story of Ethan Winters. This game will also feature more unique NPCs than RE 7. Here's a look at the plot of RE 8 as described by the developers:

"Years after the tragic events of the Resident Evil 7 biohazard, Ethan Winters has started over with his wife Mia, finally living in peace and putting the past behind them. However, Chris Redfield, the legendary hero from previous Resident Evil games, suddenly disrupts their life, throwing a devastated Ethan into a new and twisted nightmare in search of answers."
