Capcom revealed Resident Evil 4 Remake at a PlayStation State of Play event in June. It was only announced for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series SX/S and PC.

However, it is not known if Resident Evil 4 Remake will be available on Xbox One. 

Capcom shared more details about the forthcoming Winters’ Expansion DLC Village at Tokyo Game Show in a blog post. 

Tsuyoshi Kanna, Capcom’s producer, writes that “First, we’d like to get things started with the new story DLC ‘Shadows of Rose’.” Ethan Winters was the father of Rose, and he saved his daughter’s life. Rose will be fighting for her survival 16 years after events occurred in the original story. This game is set in the Realm of Consciousness of the Megamycete. You will find many monsters and traps in this realm. Rose is limited to carrying a pistol, some ammo and a first-aid med.

Rose is a poor woman with few resources and must use all her power to free herself from the curse she longs to end. These unusual powers can be used to stop enemy attacks for a time and also destroy obstacles that stand in her path. Rose can help you target an enemy’s weak points by effectively using her power.

PlayStation Blog has additional information about The Winters’ Expansion. This includes the Third-Person Mode, the Additional Mercenaries Orders, and many other details. 

On October 28, the Winters’ Expansion will be released and Resident Evil Village Gold Edition (which includes DLC) will be made available.
