There has not been a Resident Evil that we have managed to connect with in a long time. Resident Evil 7 Biohazard has changed all that. All the puzzles, all the scares, and the fantastic feeling you get while playing the game. It is a horrific, in all the right ways.

Resident Evil VII: Biohazard proves that this series is still an important franchise. Excellent atmosphere, memorable characters, many classic elements and a good story make this game a candidate for the best horror of the year 2017.

At first I was a bit sceptical about this new game by Capcom, but after a long session, I can tell you I really enjoyed it. Even if it seems completely disconnected from the previous Resident Evils, and there is no mention of any famous character of the saga, this game keeps the main features of the brand. The first person view makes everything scarier, engaging the player in that perfect rhythm made up by the gameplay. If you’re fans of horror video games, you must play it. Capcom succeeded on its purpose, giving a fresh restart to Resident Evil saga.

Resident Evil 7 sets new standards for the horror genre. It is one of the most brutal, most terrifying games ever and has a carefully thought out story with epic boss fights. If you want an unforgettable gaming experience this is it!

RE7 is a new take on a genre that has more or less died off in the modern age within the AAA publisher space. It embodies a style of game design that we haven't seen from the series since before RE4 changed everything. Resident Evil is back, and I'm already hungry — starved — for more. It's good to be home again.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is a game that really struggles to find the new voice that Resident Evil so needs as a franchise. It’s incredibly well designed and executed, and you’re not going to find a game that does VR better than this one.

Resident Evil 7 biohazard grabs the crown of best survival horror back for the series that started the genre. It hearkens back well to the old games in great ways. At times it feels too streamlined for more casual players, but hopefully, this installment will serve as proof that there’s an audience for more games like it. By moving away from the action-oriented gameplay of the last few games, Capcom has brought us one of the best Resident Evil games ever made.

Resident Evil 7 doesn’t have much in common with the rest of the franchise, but when the game is this good, it’s hard to complain. Definitely worthwhile for any survival horror fans.

Don't let the change in perspective or the different aesthetics fool you; this is definitely a Resident Evil game, and, even more importantly, one that returns to the core of its roots in the best way possible. Perfect? No. Will players miss the more comic book-like vibe of the original? Sure. However, while Resident Evil 7: Biohazard isn't everyone's cup of stagnant swamp water, it's a cup that everyone should get a taste of, at least once.

Go tell Aunt Rhody she needs to play Resident Evil 7, as it's an absolutely stunning rebirth and return to form for survival horror. This soft reboot has reinvigorated the franchise and brought AAA survival horror back. The future of Resident Evil looks very promising too, since Capcom established that the Bakers have taken plenty of visitors over the years and have filmed them all. These experiences are already set up to be the part of some upcoming DLC and for future instalments this leaves plenty of story threads hanging and questions left to be answered.
