A radical, riveting reinvention of the stagnant survival horror franchise, Resident Evil 7 returns the series to its terrifying roots, while making the most of its new first-person perspective.

With an intensely creepy setting, a demented cast of characters and some tantalising tie-ins to the prior titles, this is absolutely the daring shake-up the franchise needed.

And if you own a PSVR headset, this is a 1000% must-buy. One of the few genuinely AAA, full-fat VR titles available at the moment, it is nothing short of terrifying, and no question the best way to play the game. Fear has never felt this nerve-shreddingly real.

Best of all, the game achieves something that hasn't happened in a while for the series: it leaves fans genuinely intrigued and excited for the inevitable sequel.
