Resident Evil Village was announced during Sony?s PS5 reveal broadcast last month after months of leaks and rumors had brought the new Resident Evil entry into the public mindshare. The game is a direct sequel to Resident Evil 7 and even features the Roman numeral VIII within the ?VILL? part of the game?s logo, but Capcom doesn?t actually want you to call it Resident Evil 8. Official press releases and media have never mentioned the number eight, with only the cleverly ?hidden? Easter egg in the logo design calling attention to it being the eighth numbered game in the franchise. But the game?s producers want you focused on the?Village? part of the title.
In an interview in Weekly Famitsu (as translated by Kotaku), producers Tsuyoshi Kanda and Peter Fabiano were asked about Resident Evil Village excluding the number from its title while still including it within the logo. After all, Resident Evil 7: biohazard also features the Roman numeral VII hidden within its logo, and includes the number as part of the game?s official title. Why not do the same for Resident Evil Village"
