Shadows of Rose storyline
The ending of Resident Evil Village left us with questions as the camera introduces us to a 16-year old Rose visiting her father's grave. In this DLC Expansion, we get to pickup right where we left off 16 years after the events of Village where we get to play as a teenage Rose Winters and what happened to her right after that ending.
Third Person Mode
Fans of the Resident Evil franchise can now get to experience Village in the third person perspective, similar to the classic POV used in the earlier games. Granted that this has been a popular mod for the gaming community, it's now part of the official game experience.
Additional Mercernaries Orders
A new mode of play for Mercenaries was also announced, your challenge is to defeat as many enemies as possible within the time limit. New characters as well as abilities have also been included as part of these additional orders.
New Playable Characters
