Resident Evil 7

At the end of the day, Resident Evil 7 stands out among critics as the best PS4 store game of January 2017. Resident Evil 7 departs from the action-oriented gameplay of the last entries and mimics the style of recent horror games like Amnesia or Outlast. Despite the new looks, it still manages to retain the essence of the franchise, maintaining familiar elements like exploration, weapons, and puzzles, but also adding new ones like the first person view.

Critics, including us, praised Resident Evil 7 for its return to its roots. For them, it is genuinely scary, even more so in VR. The art design, graphics and gameplay are great, the perfect evolution. However, users’ opinions are more mixed. Many of them believe that the normal enemies are boring, the controls are sluggish, and the game is simply too easy. There are also  some who find the story extremely forgettable.
