My coworker Denise Primbet confirmed that Resident Evil Village has the same effect, saying that her PS4 got "super loud," when playing.Īlso, you'll be able to hear Resident Evil Village more easily when playing it on the PS5 than on the PS4. Using the audio cues, I was better able to know when a threat was growling close enough to be a problem, so I could turn around just in time. And that's when I remembered to plug in my headphones. Flaming arrows rained down from above, lycans looking to bite a chunk or five out of Ethan's neck pounced on him from behind and I was just having trouble keeping track. This value amped up later on in the game, when Ethan was getting attacked from all angles.

It took me forever to figure out where to go, and only with my headphones on could I get a better sense where one of these tormentors was going to be sneaking up from me from out of my vantage point. I had a lot of trouble at the end of my time in Castle Dimitrescu, when both Lady Dimitrescu and her daughter Daniela were chasing me. But once I attached my headset to my PS5 controller's headphone jack (you don't need Sony's specific 3D Pulse headset), I realized that Resident Evil Village truly comes to life with this more intimate audio.
