Even more story is coming to Resident Evil Village this year, just in time for Halloween. A slate from downloadable content developer Capcom mentions Winters’ Expansion brings with it a new chapter called “Shadow of Rose”, which continues the story of village protagonist Ethan’s daughter as she struggles with her gross, fungus-based superpowers.
Capcom revealed the DLC chapter during the June game showcase, while also giving a ton of detail about what the new story will cover. Shadow of Rose continues after the ending scene that players saw in the Village base game, which jumps 16 years ahead in time to show us a now grown-up Rose. The ending of Village suggested that Rose had abilities resulting from her parents’ exposure to the mutagenic moss in the center of Resident Evil Village and Resident Evil VII, and that’s why characters like Chris Redfield keep a close eye on her.
