Resident Evil 8 Village: 10 Best Fan Theories You Need To Know

7. Hairy Hammer Guy Is Heisenberg Transformed

"The Hat Man" as he’s become known across the internet for the past few months, Karl Heisenberg is still very much a mystery when it comes to Resident Evil Village.

So far, all we can tell is that he’s closely associated with Alcina Dimitrescu and her family in the housing area of the region, acting as someone who keeps order in the outer regions that surround the Castle too, somewhere in Eastern Europe.

Always accompanied with a grin in his first form at least, Heisenberg doesn’t seem to be a friend, let alone a pushover. We can only speculate he’ll act as the trademark "pursuing enemy" of this instalment.

Well, at least one of them as Lady Dimitrescu and her daughters will no doubt keep Ethan on his toes inside the castle.

Though, thanks to the most recent story trailer, it has almost become crystal clear that Heisenberg will have a transformation of his own.

Much in the same vein as a werewolf from classic horror fiction, just by looking at the pair’s clothes and the hammer they carry is a dead giveaway. That, or Capcom are really trying to mislead us this time.
