Resident Evil 7 is a standout title, an undeniable masterclass in the horror genre and a fantastic return to form for the 20-year old franchise. If you’ve read our review, you’ll know I have nothing but praise for it, and how Capcom managed to reboot it in a way that was not only highly satisfying, but breathed new life into the series as a whole. This is most evident at the beginning of the game, which sets a particular tone, then pulls the rug out from underneath you almost immediately, immersing you in a world that’s as unpredictable as it is frightening by literally putting you in the main character’s shoes.
