In an interview with Famitsu, the director of Resident Evil Village, Morimasa Sato, spoke on the future of the series. Morimasa talked about the expectations players have on the horror genre, before having his say. Sato then added his preferences for Resident Evil Village characters, noting that the title could be even scarier. The director then spoke on the future in Resident Evil.
I have no specific ideas but I always ask myself a specific question about it: "What is horror?" There are certainly clichés with classic creatures, scenarios and executions, but fear is a primitive reaction to an unforeseen and unpredictable event. So I think there is a new sense of horror or a new Resident Evil only after breaking down these “clichés”. For Resident Evil we have always evolved into new quests for the best possible horror experience, sometimes including major changes in the series. I don't know how it will evolve again in the future.
Sato later revealed that Karl Heisenberg is her favorite character in Resident Evil Village. This is thanks to his appearances and his somewhat anomalous power regarding a "classic" Resident Evil character. At the moment Resident evil village it is also the chapter of the franchise that has sold the most, confirming that the evolution of the series has worked.
