'RESIDENT EVIL 8'
"Resident Evil 8" was another highly anticipated title, which continues the successful horror series in 2021. The full name is "Resident Evil 8: Village," and it's coming to the PlayStation 5.
It's a sequel to the survival horror game "Resident Evil 7" with a different setting than the previous game. The backdrop appears gray and snowy, infested with werewolf-esque monsters.
The "Resident Evil 3" remake launched earlier in April. Producer Peter Fabiano told CNN Business at the time why fans had demanded a remake: "I think the characters, settings and overall themes and thrills of the series keep people wanting to come back for more."

In "Forbidden West," a brave young woman returns as the protagonist to explore the new frontier of America alongside cyborg-like animals and plenty of nature. The game has no set release date.
