Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is a 2017 survival horror game developed and published by Capcom. The seventh main installment in the Resident Evil series, it puts the player in control of Ethan Winters as he searches for his long-missing wife in a derelict plantation occupied by an infected family, solving puzzles and fighting enemies. Resident Evil 7 diverges from the more action-oriented Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6, returning to the franchise's survival horror roots, emphasizing exploration. It is the first main Resident Evil game to use a first-person view.

Runs well on modern hardware.

Resident Evil 7 is so good it's actually stupid. The Baker family is easily one of the best parts of the entire series. Every time one of them showed up I knew something bad was about to happen. The house is creepy, the atmosphere is great, and the game somehow keeps making simple things feel stressful. Also, Ethan deserves way more love than he gets. The amount of stuff this guy goes through in this game is insane. By the end I was more worried about him than I was about the monsters. The game looks great, the horror is great, the pacing is great. There's really not much else to say. One of the best Resident Evil games tbh (I love you so much Ethan Winters)
I'm a little late to it, but Resident Evil 7 was absolutely worth it. I came for the horror, but ended up getting attached to the story and characters more than I expected. The tension never really lets up, and some moments genuinely made me feel sad. Such a memorable experience.
This is one of the best horror games I've ever experienced. RE7 is a perfect Resident Evil game. It has all the RE elements, unlike RE3 which focuses mostly on the action-adventure aspect. RE7 literally revived the franchise and brought back all the things we love about Resident Evil. The level design is great, probably one of the best in the series, and the puzzles were fantastic. It always keeps you on the edge, constantly making you fear what might be waiting for you up ahead. The inventory management and survival aspects are also excellent, forcing you to carefully manage your resources and think about every item you carry. Every bullet, healing item, and inventory slot matters, which adds even more tension to the experience. I absolutely loved the story as well because it felt fresh unlike the other Resident Evil games we've played before. The main character is one of the highlights of this game. He's not your typical edgy Resident Evil protagonist, but a normal person who just wants to find his wife, which makes the experience feel even more grounded and immersive. This game also has one of the best atmospheres in the series. From beginning to end, it never lets go of that feeling of tension and dread. For me, it's absolutely a 10/10.
