Not what was expected

I have played through both ps4 and ps5 versions on all difficulties and achieved 100%. I could only play through to were I was about to see the first view of the village after the beginning car crash, before the game crashed. The game audio doesn’t match up with the characters when they speak. I’m running a new iPhone 15 pro max. And the game struggles to maintain frame rate and stability. Two tests have been done to test both the highest resolution and frames etc. as well as the lowest. Both of which I’ve experienced game crashes and frame rate drops. With the graphics and all being at max. The game visually looks like it’s on a PS3.
Hopefully there’s improvements going forward, and I look forward to seeing how things go for this beautiful game.

Even better on iPad M1?

It generally runs very well on iPhone 15 Pro Max.

But interestingly I found it runs even better on my iPad M1 at full settings and almost full resolution. That’s amazing and for me, a far better experience on the bigger screen.

I also tested and found the game runs beautifully when connected my 4K HDR Samsung TV in “docked mode”.

The used my Airpods to get better audio than my TV and I sat back and enjoyed the first 20mins – never played the game before.

The phone does get hot (iPad was better tbh) but it wasn’t unacceptable at all. The battery life will be an issue here, so I’d recommend cabling for that or alternatively using a battery back.

Overall graphics are insanely good on these devices and with great framerates. I’m excited for the future of gaming on iOS devices.

Touch controller fade time

I use a backbone remote, there should be an option to permanently disable the touch screen controls from re-appearing on the screen after a max fade time of 10 seconds. Please fix/add support to disable the touch screen controls from popping up on the screen after a set amount of time. Keeps reminding me I am playing a mobile port of the game when I’m using a backbone one controller for iOS and enjoy the console like experience. Can’t do this when I’m constantly reminded I’m on a mobile port of the game when the touch screen controls keep popping up. Please address the issue in an update and I’ll change my 1 star review to a 5 star review. Other than that, it’s a great port.

how do you even play this game?

I’m stuck in this screen asking for me to download data storage and I try to but it won’t let me and Im stuck. Please fix this game.

Honest opinion (15 Pro Max)

Game runs okay 30-60fps i dont think i was able to play at 120 even if the option was available, Graphics it can be change as you please but it will be laggy. On high settings the phone will definitely get hot, the phone will defined need a cooling fan added to the back On medium and low the phone will only get warm Now when it comes to gameplay and controls feel I personally prefer the touch controls over a controller. And here is why with a controller i noticed a lot of input lag which made it difficult to play but with the touch controls i felt much quicker as if i was playing COD mobile, the touch controls can be customized but not fully i was definitely enjoying the game once i found the right combination of settings for myself. This whole new console game coming to iPhone has a HUGE potential i just dont feel like the current iPhones 15 pros dont have the hardware to make the games fully enjoyable and competitive once other games come to the library. PS. I really wish apple would release a controller that you can attach to your phone ( on the sides ) that leaves the back of the phone free to where you can add a cooling fan, a cooling fan is definitely needed. Also i wish apple would give the iphones external monitor option to avoid black bars when connected to a monitor via hdmi or usb c

Resident evil village

I’ve been waiting for this since they announced it was coming to mobile I’m giving this 4 stars because only a small group of people can play this and the mobile controls are a bit difficult I come from call of duty mobile where I’m pretty good at it and this games controls just feel odd the full game is only like 15 I think so not that bad

I have a problem

Hi at the start of the game when I enter the village after like 5 to 10 minutes from the start the game turn off
I tried to go in low settings and in medium settings and still have the same problem

Hot phone, lag city

After 30 minutes on my iPhone 15 Pro Max the game slows to a crawl and has crashed twice - even with settings on recommended. To be fair I do have a case on my phone which probably isn’t helping. I’ll try it again without the case and see if it’s any better.

Welcome to the App Store

I find it hard to believe that Apple did not personally help you get this into the App Store, yet this is catastrophically unusable for the dumbest reasons. If you want me to download your massive asset package, then you have to turn off the screen timer. If you think I’m going to tap on the screen every 30 seconds for 45 minutes, then here’s a one-star review for wasting my time.

I hit send, and then it also occurred to me that you ALSO want $60 from me 🤣 jfc

Needs better touch controls

Fantastic/ unbelievable full console quality port but severely limited by on screen touch controls.

Developers need to look at Alien Isolation and adapt a similar, custom on screen control scheme for RE Village. Hopefully this will get done soon.
