The Resident Evil Village Winters’ Expansion is bringing back a feature that the main series had previously been moving away from: a third-person perspective. While Resident Evil VII: Biohazard reshaped the series’ formula with the introduction of the first-person viewpoint, through the Winters’ Expansion, Capcom is providing Resident Evil Village gamers with the option to play the latest entry in the Resident Evil series from a third-person view. This guide will demonstrate how to start third-person mode in Resident Evil Village, so you can experience the latest story in the Resident Evil videogame mythos from a new perspective.
How to Access Third-Person View Mode in Resident Evil Village
In order to gain access to third-person view mode in Resident Evil Village, you first have to buy the Winters’ Expansion or Resident Evil Village: Gold Edition.
