  • Resident Evil 8 Village -- Winter's Expansion

    Ya'll, Chris got that 'Rona, he's out for the week. Steph is covering by herself (I know, I know, everyone likes Chris best but c'mon, give her a chance!) 

    She'll be talking about the new DLC for Resident Evil 8 Village. The Winter's Expansion adds the ability to play the WHOLE game from a new perspective (third person, that is). Shadows of Rose adds a new story mode to the proceedings. Also you get some new characters in mercenaries. If you care about that sort of thing. 

    Wait, you can play as Lady Dimitrescu?!

    Tune in to find out how Steph, our resident Resident Evil superfan, liked her time with the expansion.
