VG247 has released an official statement from Capcom regarding Resident Evil Village. According to the Japanese company, scammers are sending emails to users offering early access to the project. This is a hoax and such messages should be ignored and deleted immediately.

Capcom’s comment reads: “We are making this announcement because we know that emails are now being circulated that include an invitation to supposedly early access to the Resident Evil Village. The sender’s address is displayed as “no-reply (at) capcom (dot) com”. We want to inform you that these messages are not sent by Capcom and are phishing attacks by an unauthorized third party. If you receive such a letter, do not upload files or reply, but delete it immediately. “.

Let’s remind: in a similar way, attackers deceived users before the release of Cyberpunk 2077. They sent an invitation to the beta test of the game, which CD Projekt RED never planned to arrange.

Resident Evil Village will be released on May 7, 2021 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S.
