The iOS versions of Resident Evil 7, Resident Evil Village and the Resident Evil 4 remake now require an online connection at startup.
As reported on the iOS Gaming Reddit page (and spotted by Eurogamer), all three apps have received updates adding the new requirement.
All three apps have update notes reading: “Due to changes to the startup process, an internet connection is now required when starting this app.”
Although no reason has been given for Capcom as to why the games now need to connect online when they’re started up, some of the Reddit page’s users believe it may be a DRM check to avoid piracy.
