Trailers and teasers show a larger-than-life woman who will haunt the protagonist Ethan throughout Resident Evil Village, and Capcom has revealed some interesting information on this character, including her actual height.
A message from Resident Evil Village Art Director Tomonori Takano was posted on the game’s official social media accounts, revealing that the development team was surprised by the attention Lady Dimitrescu and her daughters have received.
That’s right, Lady Dimitrescu is over 9-feet tall, making her a formidable and imposing character to run into while you’re playing Resident Evil Village. She appears to be the main protagonist of the game and the owner of the castle which acts as the centerpiece of the mysterious village.
Most recently, Lady Dimitrescu and her daughters have received a fair amount of attention, far more than we anticipated. It’s great that they’re able to take the spotlight as icons of Resident Evil Village. Lady Dimitrescu, especially, has received much fanfare both domestically and overseas, which has made us all on the development team extremely happy. I hear her height is of some interest….
If you include her hat and high heels, she’s 2.9m (approximately 9'6") tall.
These bewitching, vampire characters are relentless in their pursuit of Ethan, and I can’t wait for you to meet them yourselves when you enter Castle Dimitrescu in May."
How Ethan ends up in the village and the rest of the story’s secrets are not yet known, but a special demo is available now for PS5 owners called “Maiden” that gives a bit more background on the game and Lady Dimitrescu herself.
We won’t spoil it here, but we recommend checking it out. The demo will also be available on other platforms this spring before the game’s release.
Resident Evil Village is scheduled to release for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC on May 7.
