Slash, Choke, And Throw Vanities As Lady Dimitrescu In Resident Evil Village DLC

Here’s how Capcom producer Tsuyoshi Kanda described her playstyle in a new PlayStation blog post on Friday:

Standing more than nine-feet tall, Lady Dimitrescu slices through enemies with her talons. Her unique Thrill Gauge increases by attacking enemies or by using the “Lady’s Lipstick” item. As the Thrill Gauge increases, Lady Dimitrescu’s movement speed and nail damage increase, and new moves are unlocked as well. When the gauge is maxed out, her damage will also be at its peak.

While brief, the new gameplay trailer shows some of this in action, with Dimitrescu looking down upon wave after wave of lycan and zombie as she makes quick work of the demonic pipsqueaks. Her powers even include a call back to her vanity throwing moment that blew up on social media:

Lady D spends most of Resident Evil Village slowly stalking you and she’s rather invulnerable. It’ll be nice to turn the tables in the new DLC. Fill up her Thrill Gauge all the way and you’ll even be able to summon one of her three daughters to fight alongside you. Hopefully this is just the first step on the long road to a full-blown spin-off.
