Resident Evil Village was meant to launch with a multiplayer mode, Resident Evil Re:Verse. In April this year, after some not great open betas, Capcom announced it would be delayed until July. It’s July now, but look around you. Nope. Indeed, minutes ago the developers announced it has now slipped to some point in space year 2022.
So what’s gone wrong? Well, from the wooliness of the tweet, my guess would be: lots.
“Resident Evil Re:Verse is being moved to 2022,” the franchise’s official Twitter announces, “so that the team can continue working to deliver a smooth gameplay experience.” Which, when accompanied by such an ambiguously distant new date, is usually industry code for, “Shit, shit, the framerate doesn’t go over 3!”
They add, “We will share updated launch details at a later time. Thank you for your patience and understanding.”
