What We Know About Resident Evil: Village So Far

4. Mother Miranda And The Ritual

Resident Evil 8 Dimitrescu

There is a scene in the 3rd trailer where Lady Dimitrescu is talking to someone called Mother Miranda over the phone. We can already assume that this Mother Miranda is most likely the true big bad of the game - but by the sounds of it a vast majority of these trailers are jumping in partway through the story after Ethan has already escaped from someone called 'Heisenberg'.

From this, we can gather that Mother Miranda wants Ethan dead or incapacitated so he doesn't interrupt this ritual they have planned.

We have very little information about the ritual itself, but Mother Miranda has some religious connotations. In the demo there is a door that looks somewhat like the head of a nun who is holding a baby. There is also clearly a statue, which is most likely a puzzle in true Resident Evil fashion, hidden behind a locked door and carved lattice wall. Both of these instances appear to be religious depictions and so we can assume this is the one and only Mother Miranda.
