Capcom Showcases ‘Resident Evil 7 Biohazard’ Gameplay Trailer at Gamescom

As part of this week’s gamescom activity over in Cologne, Germany, Capcom has released a brand new gameplay trailer and screenshots for Resident Evil 7 biohazard.  Taking a deeper look at the horror players will see in the release of the title early next year, players are introduced to Marguerite Baker and another mysterious female character in this latest gameplay sequence taken from the main game.

I don’t know, you guys. I’m really happy that the Resident Evil series is going back to its horror roots (not a poor man’s action game), but it isn’t catching me yet. I chalk this up to being inundated with shitty jump-scare games on Steam and on YouTube. I guess I’ve become desensitised thanks to playing so many and seeing Markiplier and others fake scream their way through to exhaustion. Still, the VR mode does seem like it will soil many a nice pair of slacks.

Resident Evil 7 biohazard will be available for PS4 (the full gameplay experience will also be available via the included PlayStation VR mode), Xbox One and PC when it launches across North America and Europe on January 24, 2017.

The real horror is gingivitis!

Set within the sinister plantation house in Dulvey, Louisiana, the Baker family, including Jack and Marguerite, were residents but no-one has seen or heard from them in a while. Where could they be? One thing is clear in the latest content to be shown from the game – there’s something not quite right within the plantation. Who is the mysterious girl in the gameplay? What does Marguerite want with her?
