    The changes have been a long time coming, but the final result may well have given us one of the best horror titles we are likely to see this year…finally bringing the horror back to Resident Evil.

    Despite its radical switch to first person view, Resident Evil 7 biohazard represents a real comeback to the series' origins, with a disturbing and scary atmosphere, great story and characters and a thrilling gameplay mixing exploration, puzzle solving and combat. An awesome new beginning for Capcom's franchise.

    Resident Evil 7 Biohazard is a reminiscent of the old school survival horror with some modern mechanics from title like Outlast. The plot is a little 'stereotypical, but the game has seductive sounds and atmosphere.

    Resident Evil 7 seems to us an indispensable game if you like the adventures with action and puzzles, but with a great inconvenience: IT IS SO SCARY. Keeps you heartbroken for hours and that is everything that we wanted from this title. Stay away from the prejudices you had about this game of the Resident Evil saga, because you will love it without a doubt.

    Resident Evil 7 feels as terrifying as it does modern, all while returning the series to its roots. It hits some familiar bumps along the way, but this is the best this series has felt in years.

    Even though Resident Evil 7 Biohazard ditches the third person point of view to a first person and a more intimate story, it does an amazing job of bringing back its roots which made the series so successful. The extraordinary work that was done in the different game departments such as story telling, audio, gameplay and graphics will keep me from sleeping at night and remembering it as a great experience.

    Resident Evil 7 grounds itself in elements that made the original great while still indulging in a risky new shift in style that both helps and hurts the beloved formula in equal measure. But it’s also the closest a numbered sequel has come to recapturing Resident Evil’s slow, but thrilling and atmospheric adventure game roots in a while — a welcome return that I truly hope to see more of in the future.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Easily the best Resident Evil to date. Followed by the Resident Evil 2 remaster in my opinion.

    Pros:

    The story is insanely smooth. From the minor side characters such as Clancy to the 'villains', the family and Eveline to Ethan. Each of the characters are well put together.

    - The atmosphere in the game is hugely eerie in the best way. the setting of an old abandoned out of the eye house, the basement, the swamp, the caves, the garage, the barn house, the ship and the Incinerator area. Every area is memorable.

    - The family has depth. They aren't just conventional 'evil' characters. They are victims as much as the protagonist.

    - The graphical advancement from the previous games (barring revelations 2, which is also a great game) is a huge positive.

    Cons:

    - I do feel like of all the characters, Ethan is the weakest character which is a shame because he's the protagonist. Despite this he's still a fine main character in perspective of a horror game.

    - Although there is story reason and some variation, the basic enemies lack diversity.
