The WhatsNext verdict

For Players who want close-up survival horror, oppressive atmosphere, and careful resource use: The first-person view makes the Baker family’s decaying home feel immediate, while exploration and scarce supplies keep danger close. Tradeoff: Limited ammunition and frequent vulnerability make it tense and uncomfortable by design.

The setup

What you are walking into

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is the first game of the Resident Evil series to switch from 3rd-person to fully 1st-person perspective. A complete refresh of gameplay systems simultaneously propels the survival horror experience to another level. It is as much horror as it is survival, boosting up scare elements and minimizing downright shooting action. The game allows use of Sony's PSVR Headset to play in VR mode.
