The highly anticipated Resident Evil Village is making its way to iPhones and iPads this October. The news, which coincided with the announcement of the iPhone 15, has sparked both excitement and skepticism among gamers.
Can it Measure Up vs. a PC? Maybe Not
Equipped with the powerful A17 Bionic Chip and the stunning Liquid Retina XDR Display, the iPhone 15 promises a console-like gaming experience right in the palm of your hand. But does gaming on a compact screen truly measure up to the immersive experience offered by traditional consoles or PCs?
For many gamers, the answer is a resounding “not quite.” The limitations of a smaller screen can lead to cumbersome controls. Additionally, graphics that, while impressive for a mobile device, may not match up to the visual splendor of a larger TV or monitor. However, the convenience of on-the-go gaming often outweighs these drawbacks for those with busy lifestyles.
Price Yet to be Revealed
Resident Evil Village is set to be one of the first games available for the iPhone 15. Already, online forums are abuzz with conflicting views. Moreover, it is still unclear how much the game will retail for.
While the exact price remains undisclosed, the Mac version of the game sells for just under 30 euros.
In theory, the iPhone 15 is like having a console in your handbag. While some may have reservations about playing Resident Evil on small screens, some gamers can find a workaround: by connecting their mobile devices to a larger display for a more PC-like experience.
The release date for Resident Evil Village on iPhone and iPad was a well-kept secret until now. However, Capcom’s website has unveiled the exciting news—it’s arriving much sooner than expected, on October 30, 2023.
