Resident Evil Village will be getting some downloadable content (DLC) soon, as Capcom has announced. The DLC is currently in the works and has been created on popular demand. Announced during the E3 2021 Showcase, a message during the livestream has confirmed that the DLC has “entered production by popular demand”.

Capcom has announced no other details beyond this as yet but there are implications that this DLC might feature more content involving Resident Evil Village's most popular character - Lady Dimitrescu. It is also possible that this new DLC might see a return of a fan-favourite, Ada Wong, who was supposed to feature in Resident Evil Village. Wong's character was revealed via early concept art that can be unlocked in the game.
