Resident Evil 7 Biohazard ~ Reinvention at its Finest

Mention the series ‘Resident Evil’ to any gamer and they will immediately recognise the name. The survival horror franchise has grown significantly over the last 20 years. From a new game with infamous voice acting, it’s now a successful game series!

The latest addition to the series, ‘Resident Evil 7 Biohazard’, offers gamers a unique perspective into the Resident Evil universe. Capcom has shown they are going back to their survival horror roots.

To be released on 24th January 2017, the game will be available on Playstation 4, Microsoft Windows and Xbox One.

The game’s trailers show that Capcom are offering a very different style of Resident Evil. Past entries have often merged into the action genre. However, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard is solely focused on survival horror.

Players take the role of a man searching through a seemingly desolate house. But it soon appears the house is inhabited. Players will be introduced to eerie characters and terrifying situations. This combination will certainly create a claustrophobic feel to the game.

It also brings in the nostalgia of Resident Evil 1, where characters Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield explored an empty mansion. This is a perfect mix for long-time Resident Evil fans who want thrilling gameplay.

Another striking difference is the use of the first-person camera. Gone are the days where Resident Evil relied solely on third-person camera.

Capcom want players to experience Resident Evil 7 Biohazard in a fully immersive environment. It’s not surprising then that the game is also compatible with PlayStation VR. This enhances the game to a terrifyingly unique perspective.

Capcom are also extremely passionate about producing outstanding graphics to showcase their game. Due to the specifically-created RE engine, the game contains breath-taking graphics that reveal intricate detail. Combine this with the Playstation VR and first-person camera, players may have trouble separating reality from fiction.

Resident Evil 7 Biohazard is a deliberate move to reinvent the long-standing series.

With striking new features and beautiful graphics, this game marks a great start for the gaming year. Capcom has shown that they are key pioneers for the survival horror genre.

Get ready for the release of Resident Evil 7 Biohazard, available from 24th January 2017!
