Capcom is about to release a corrective patch for the PC version of Resident Evil Village, aimed at correcting the graphics and CPU problems

During the first part of the year we saw the launch of Resident Evil Village, the eighth official chapter of what is undoubtedly one of the longest-running Capcom brands. It is also one of the most profitable for the Japanese company, and it is thanks to this umpteenth installation, as well as the release of the new Monster Hunter, that the publisher’s profits have recorded significant growth, also by virtue of the excellent reception of public and critics received. In spite of this success, however, the PC version of the game showed up at the starting line with a few small hitches, which they forced Capcom to release some patches, to which another will be added shortly.
