Capcom fights new gameplay leaks in Resident Evil Village • Eurogamer.net

Capcom is battling a slew of new Resident Evil Village leaks, this time around its vampire grande dame.

This week, videos showing the gameplay of a meeting with Alcina Dimitrescu hit YouTube, but Capcom was quick to force them down with a slew of copyright claims. Capcom declined to comment when contacted by Eurogamer.

We will not discuss the content of these videos here or links to alternative sources. It’s fair to say, however, that it has become much more difficult to avoid Resident Evil Village spoilers, especially for fans of the current internet obsession.

This new leak appears to be linked to the release of a developer version of Resident Evil Village arguably obtained as part of the recent ransomware attack that devastated Capcom. Capcom has so far refused to respond to requests from ransomware attackers.

Capcom’s information breach detailed the company’s upcoming game release schedule through the end of 2024. Capcom has previously said it is concerned that up to 350,000 personal information may be held by ransomware attackers. , including addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth and photos. But the company later increased that total to 390,000, with more than 16,000 people confirmed to be compromised.

It should be remembered that the assets related to the supposed developmental construction of Resident Evil Village may already be obsolete. But this is a serious leak for Capcom and, given the likelihood of further leaks, a tough time for fans who want to strike the game intact upon release.
