Resident Evil Village Final Demo Extended Following Fan Outcry

Following fan outcry over the 8-hour window of PS5's Resident Evil Village demos, Capcom has extended the final, multi-platform demo by a week. Instead of lasting for only 24 hours, Resident Evil's Twitter revealed the new Extended Final Demo will run from May 1 at 5pm PT/8pm ET/1AM BST (5/2) to May 9 at 5pm PT/8pm ET/ 1am BST (5/10). RE This final demo for Resident Evil Village will still only let players play for a total of 60 minutes between the Village Demo and the Castle Demo, which were separated by a week for PS5 players in their exclusive first demos. While some took issue with the 30-minute limit for each of the first two demos, the biggest complaint was its 8-hour window of availability. These demos started at 5pm PT/8pm ET/1 am BST, which is late in the day in North America for most and even later for those in Europe and elsewhere. If you were busy or sleeping or otherwise unable to spend time on your PS5, you were out of luck and could not try the demo at all.
