There's a new Resident Evil Village DLC teaser out and Capcom says more information on the planned October showcase is coming "soon."

The 30-second mashup of cinematic and gameplay footage shows a few pretty terrifying abominations - including one that appears to be a new stalker-type enemy with a very deadly looking melee weapon - and a brief tease of the now teenaged Rose Winter's supernatural powers. We also get to see more footage of the upcoming third-person mode, which will be bundled alongside the Shadows of Rose DLC and some free new accessibility features with the Resident Evil Village: Gold Edition, launching October 28.

Curiously, Capcom still hasn't revealed a date for the next Resident Evil showcase, which was originally scheduled for October. Seeing as how we're just about halfway through October, you'd think we'd at least have a date, but it seems Capcom is taking its sweet time here.

There's no telling what we'll see at the much-hyped Resident Evil October showcase, but there's always a chance we'll see more from the Resident Evil Village Rose DLC, the Resident Evil 4 remake, which was recently confirmed for PS4 alongside PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, or something completely new.

One thing's for sure, and that's that the Winter family's story is coming to a close with this upcoming DLC, which of course has already sparked speculation about what Resident Evil 9 might be about.

In the meantime, sit tight, light a Jack-o'-lantern, and trawl through our extensive list of the best horror games ever made.
