Capcom is adding an option to play the entirety of Resident Evil Village from a third-person viewpoint, but you'll need to buy the new DLC to access it.

Announced at today's Capcom Showcase, the new DLC for Resident Evil: Village includes three major features, including a third-person mode that finally gives us a look at the elusive Ethan Winters.

Despite the switch to third-person, it appears faceless protagonist Ethan Winters will continue to obscure his face, moving to face away from the camera (even though mods reveal what he looks like).

After 6 games (and multiple spin-offs) that used a third-person perspective, Resident Evil 7 and Village switched to a first-person view – a move that has been divisive among long term fans. Modders have sought to change that on PC versions of the game, but this is a more official (albeit paid-for) solution for Village.

Resident Evil Village's DLC drops on October 28, and will also include the mercenaries mode, with a playable Lady Dimitrescu, and a new, separate story about a young Rose. A Resident Evil Village Gold Edition will also be released at the time that includes the full game along with the DLC.

Capcom has revealed Resident Evil Village's story DLC, Shadows of Rose.

This story contains spoilers for Resident Evil Village.

The DLC expansion will follow Rose, the daughter of main game protagonist, Ethan Winters. In contrast the the core game, it will take place from a third-person viewpoint.

As teased by the game's post-credits scene, Rose is now a teenager, and is assisting Chris Redfield in some regard. Given that we got a tease that Ethan is still alive at the end of the game, we can assume he'll factor into the story somehow.

Perhaps most interestingly, the DLC will take place in third-person, marking the first time a new, mainline Resident Evil game has used the perspective since Resident Evil 6. The DLC will be availible on October 28.

We awarded Resident Evil Village an 8/10 review last year, calling it "a genuinely engrossing and increasingly combat-heavy continuation of the Ethan Winters story." Its events look increasingly central to the Resident Evil universe too, considering Resident Evil 4 Remake may be adding new connections to the newer game.

Capcom has revealed a new gameplay trailer for co-op dinosaur-murder action game Exoprimal, and it’s looking stranger than ever. We’ll get to experience how strange in a closed network test ahead of its 2023 launch.

In a trailer shown at Capcom's 2022 summer showcase, we get hints at the game’s story, gameplay, and see many of the dinosaurs themselves. Suffice it to say, the upcoming PvPvE game is looking action-packed, and more than a little odd. The trailer also showed off a little more of the game’s PvP elements, showing how players will not just be taking on hordes of dinosaurs, but whole other teams of heavily armed and armored players.

During the course of the trailer, we see raptors, triceratops, ankylosaur and T-Rex AI enemies – shots of raptors falling like rain from the sky continue to look truly bonkers. We also glimpse less natural forms of threat, with at least two forms of dinosaur firing projectiles from sacs on their backs. We also see a glimpse of a massive enemy type that looks even less true-to-prehistory, but it's not clear what that will be just yet.

The gameplay also seems to show different activity types, from the self-explanatory Dinosaur Cull, to VTOL Defense, Data Key Security, Energy Taker, and Omega Charge (the latter of which appears to have players wielding a giant hammer). We hear a little more of the story too, showing how the AI Leviathan appears to be putting Exosuit pilots through deadly training on a Bikitoa Island – with the story characters looking to destroy the AI in return.

The trailer ends with a simple message promising that a Closed Network Test is on the way, but offers no dates or means of sign-up just yet.

Exoprimal is scheduled to arrive in 2023 for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One. It was announced in March, and suffered some backlash from Capcom fans who really hoped the next dinosaur battling game from the developer would be a new Dino Crisis.

Exoprimal is a full-price release, it prizes PvE over PvP, and no, it has absolutely nothing to do with Dino Crisis.

Since its announcement, it has been unclear what form Exoprimal will take, and even if it will be a free-to-play live service game. Speaking to IGN, producer Ichiro Kiyokawa made clear this was not the case, saying "Exoprimal is not free-to-play; it's a full-priced release which will be available both on disc and digitally."

In the spirit of putting speculation to bed, we also asked the game's creators whether the new Capcom dnosaur game has any connection with the old Capcom dinosaur game, Dino Crsisi. Director Takuro Hiraoka was very clear: "No, the game is its own unique thing and has no relationship to Dino Crisis."

As for what Exoprimal is, Hiraoka was naturally more talkative, and was keen to show off how it differs from Capcom's fellow monster-bsttling multiplayer action series, Monster Hunter.

"Our initial concept was that we wanted to challenge ourselves to create a feeling of satisfying action that was different to past Capcom titles. Instead of a game like Monster Hunter, where you face a single, powerful enemy, we though that the experience of taking on and overcoming a huge horde of enemies had the appeal and potential to be the basis of a new IP. We also thought that it would feel great to share that experience with others online, and so the basic concept of Exoprimal was born."

"Once we had established our gameplay concept," Hiraoka continued, "dinosaurs were the first idea that came up for the enemies you would face. I thought that it would be fun to experience the threat of history's most fearsome predators, and that if there were hundreds or thousands of them it would be an intensity that hadn't been seen before. Once we had that idea, we felt that the only way to face the overwhelming strength and numbers of dinosaurs would be with futuristic technology rather than modern weapons."

Exoprimal is a 'PvPvE' game, putting competing teams of players into arenas with hostile AI enemies to attack. PvPvE has become increasingly common in recent years, but Hiraoka sees this as a new take on the genre:

"I think that most of the PvPvE titles on the market are based around PvP, with some PvE elements included. ExoPrimal has a PvE focus that we feel is very enjoyable, exciting and unique. In addition, the main mode, Dino Survival, allows players to enjoy a different experience every time they play, as the missions, stages and dinosaurs that appear in the game change according to the player's game progress [...] During development, the team of course [playtests] the game, but we've also had non-dev staff play as well, and they've always been surprised and had fun when they saw how the game changes every time you play."

Exoprimal is scheduled to arrive in 2023 for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One. It was announced in March, and got a new gameplay trailer today that confirmed the game will get a closed network test before release.

Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, the "massive" expansion coming to the Switch and PC game, will get a demo tomorrow. We also learned about new maps and monsters – including the return of Monster Hunter 4's iconic Gore Magala.

Announced at Capcom's Summer Showcase event, we learned that a demo for Sunbreak will arrive tomorrow, Tuesday June 14. It will include the returning jungle region, and monsters to slay such as a Great Izuchi, Malzeno, and Astalos. New silkbind attacks and the new skill switch swap will be available, and there are training quests for new players. The demo supports multiplayer for up to four players, and there's no limit to the number of times players can attempt quests.

Alongside the demo, we learned about a number of returning monsters coming with the new expansion: Daimyo Hermitaur (first seen in Monster Hunter 2), Espinas (from Monster Hunter Frontier), and Gore Magala. The last on the list will be well-known to players of Monster Hunter 4, where the dark wyvern served as the flagship monster. Monster Hunter Rise's Rakna-Kadaki will also gain a new form, Pyre Rakna-Kadaki.

Not only is a Monster Hunter 2 monster appearing in the new DLC, but a map – that game's Jungle is being enhanced for the more open areas of Rise. Its appearance changes over time, too.

Finally, we learned that more free title updates will arrive in Monster Hunter Rise following Sunbreak. In August of this year, it will add the Lucent Nargacuga, a new area called the Forlorn Arena, as well as other new monsters. There will also be updates in the fall and winter, and more to come in 2023.

Last year, we awarded Monster Hunter Rise an 8/10 review, saying it "mixes classic Monster Hunter ideas with some of World’s best improvements and a whole bunch of clever new mechanics of its own." Sunbreak was announced a few months later and, while it will add a Master Rank and multiple new monsters, fan-favorite Lagiacrus won't be retruning. It's out on June 30.

The Capcom Showcase has arrived and promises to give updates and new details on previously announced games, including Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, Exoprimal, and Resident Evil 4.

This roundup will gather every announcement and trailer from the Capcom Showcase and we will be updating it throughout the show to ensure you don't miss a thing!

Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Expansion Gets Multiple New Details, and a Demo

Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is a "massive" expansion to the Switch and PC-exclusive Monster Hunter Rise and a new trailer at Capcom Showcase revealed more details and that it will be getting a demo on June 14, which is tomorrow!

The trailer also shared some of the maps and monsters fans can expect, and they include returning monsters Daimyo Hermitaur, Espinas, Gore Magala, and the Pyre Rakna Kadaki (new form). The Jungle map from Monster Hunter 2 will also be available and it is being enhanced to fit into Rise's more open areas.

Lucent Naragacuga was also announced to be joining Sunbreak in August as part of a Free Title Update 1. More free updates will arrive in Fall, Winter, and next year.

Sunbreak will be released on June 30, 2022.

Exoprimal Gets a Gameplay Trailer, Closed Network Test Coming Ahead of Release

Exoprimal, Capcom's upcoming co-op dinosaur murder action game, has received a new gameplay trailer and the promise of a closed network test before its launch in 2023. The trailer gave a tease of the PvPvE game's story, gameplay, and some of the dinosaurs players will need to battle against.

Some of Exoprimal's activities were also shown, including Dinosaur Cull, VTOL Defense, Data Key Security, Energy Taker, and Omega Charge.

Exoprimal will be released in 2023 on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC.

Street Fighter 6 to Get at Least One More Announcement in 2022

Classic original PlayStation games that are included in the PlayStation Plus Premium tier have been confirmed to run at 60hz in North America.

According to VGC, North American subscribers of PlayStation Plus Premium have access to the NTSC versions of classic games, which run at 60hz, compared to the PAL ones, which only run at 50hz. The PAL versions of games are typically used in regions such as Europe and Australia, and they have slower fresh rates which result in lower framerates.

Here are the current original PlayStation classic titles available in the Premium tier:

• Ape Escape
• Endochrome
• Hotshots Golf
• IQ Intelligent Qube
• Jumping Flash
• Mr Driller
• Oddworld
• Resident Evil Director's Cut
• Syphon Filter
• Tekken 2
• Wild Arms
• Worms Armageddon
• Worms World Party

The new PlayStation Plus launches today, June 13, in North America and will come to Europe on June 22. While it's now confirmed that North American users have the NTSC versions of classic games, Europe will most likely get the PAL versions.

This isn't the first time Sony included PAL versions of its games into a collection. Back in 2018, Sony released the PlayStation Classic, its own version of a mini-console. The games included in the system had a mix of NTSC and PAL versions, even in the ones that were sold in North America, resulting in lower refresh rates for some of the games. The decision sparked frustration among fans, but this time around, Sony seems to have learned its lesson.

Justin Lin's hiatus didn't last long after his unexpected departure from Fast X. Deadline reports that the popular action director is directing a adaptation of One-Punch Man, the beloved anime and manga about a superhero named Saitama who decides to seek out a worthy opponent after getting bored.

Lin is working with Sony Pictures on the new movie, who are reportedly "bullish" on One-Punch Man becoming a franchise, according to Deadline. Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinker, who count Jumanji: The Next Level and Venom among their credits, will write the new movie.

One Punch Man will join a host of live-action anime adaptations that also include One Piece, Mobile Suit Gundam, and other projects. A Cowboy Bebop adaptation also launched on Netflix in 2021 only to be canceled after just one season.

As for One Punch Man, it got its start as a manga in Shonen Jump, with popular anime studio Madhouse producing an adaptation that began in 2015. We called it one of the best anime for beginners.

Lin suddenly departed Fast X earlier this year amid reported conflicts over the script and a major blowup with star Vin Diesel. Lin has remained as a producer, but his new role as One-Punch Man's director suggests he has other priorities.

Fast X is slated to release on May 19, while One-Punch Man does not yet have a release date.

Just a few months after the game’s release, Dying Light 2 is already diving into its five year plan for free continued content expansions. Patch 1.4, which launches on June 14, will introduce a number of new features through “In the Footsteps of Nightrunner,” the first Chapter in the game’s new Chapters program.

According to a press release, each Chapter will introduce new characters and factions with "absolutely free content that’s being permanently added to the game and will be available to players at any time."

"Chapters are a new thing for us: an experiment from our science lab,” lead designer Tymon Smektała tells IGN.

“We have quite a lot — though never enough! — experience in supporting our games in the long run, but this kind of seasonal format is something we never did before in the history of the Dying Light franchise. It has quite a few good things in it, all of it free to all our Players, so we hope it will excite them and inspire them to share their opinions with us.”

Through this Chapter’s additions, players will be able to help Nightrunner Harper ward off the Special Infected and protect the people of Villedor “in exchange for access to some powerful, never-before-seen equipment.”

The patch will also include a variety of features, including:

• New rank system and unlockables
• Daily and Weekly Bounties in exchange for reputation points
• 2 new currencies to purchase new items
• New enemies including the Mutated Infected, the Volatile Tyrant, and the Volatile Hive
• Chapter Mission time trials that will test your stealth, parkour, or combat skills
• The long-awaited photo mode

This isn’t the only new update for Dying Light 2 on the horizon — the game has a now delayed story DLC coming in September.

We gave Dying Light 2 a 7, praising its interesting combination of “serious end-of-days themes with silly characters and minigames" while also docking points for its rushed, buggy mechanics.
