Capcom made waves during the Tokyo Game Show 2023 with the thrilling announcement: Resident Evil Village is going to the iPhone 15 Pro series and M1-and-above iPads.
Fans better get ready to mark their calendars, because on October 30, players can dive back into the bone chilling world of Resident Evil Village on these Apple devices. The game is set to be priced at $39.99, and for those wanting for a more immersive experience, the Winters' Expansion DLC pack will be available for an additional $19.99. In a fascinating turn, this pricing is $10 steeper than its macOS counterpart, but it's still way cheaper than the retail price of copies of the game on consoles and desktops.
Capcom's forward momentum doesn't stop there. Their site hints at the arrival of the imminent Resident Evil 4 remake for the same line of devices, as per Apple's earlier announcement.
There's another enticing offer in the mix. Players who jump in early and snag the Village and Winters' Expansion during Capcom's yet-to-be-announced launch window will be rewarded with an exclusive costume for Rosemary Winters in the Shadows of Rose DLC. However, it's essential to note that while the series' latest mainline installment won't be a part of Apple's Universal Purchase, the remake of Resident Evil 4 promises to be. This perk ensures that purchasing the app on one Apple platform grants access across multiple Apple devices.
Now, let's talk performance. Those who got a sneak peek of Village on the iPhone 15 Pro were left in amazed. As it turns out, the gameplay experience seems comparable to the likes of the Steam Deck - a formidable portable platform by the most unlikely of console manufacturers, Valve.
