Survival horror fans can rejoice as Capcom Social Media Specialist Kellen Haney announced that Resident Evil 7: Biohazard officially hits PlayStation 4 today, while the PS4 downloadable content (DLC) will arrive on January 31st of this year.
Below are the complete details, to quote: The latest game in the franchise takes the ordinary Ethan Winters to a run-down plantation house in Dulvey, Louisiana, in search of his missing wife, Mia.
Not all is well at the old Baker house, however; the entire mansion is falling apart, nobody’s heard from the residents in years, and there have been several reports of people going missing from the surrounding area, never to be heard from again.
If you’ve played the final Beginning Hour demo, then you’re likely already familiar with the corroded corridors, the twisted Jack Baker, and the fate of anyone who’s unfortunate enough to cross his path. Jack is just one of the family members waiting for you in this house from hell, though.
As you make your way through the mansion, you’ll have to decide what’s best in true survival horror fashion: will you fight back against the horrors that wait you? Or will you conserve your resources and run?
If that doesn’t sound terrifying enough, for those of you with PlayStation VR, you’ll be able to experience the entire game, from beginning to end, in a flexible, optional PS VR mode to play as much or as little as you want in immersive VR.
For those of you with a 4K TV and a PS4 Pro, you’ll be able to enjoy full 4K resolution with incredibly crisp graphics and even more detailed textures. Plus, Resident Evil 7 biohazard will be able to take advantage of HDR on compatible TVs, no matter what model of PS4 you have.
We’ve also got a tantalizing look at some upcoming DLC packs for you to sink your teeth into once you’ve completed the main game! PS4 users get access to the Banned Footage DLC first, so if you have the Deluxe Edition or a Season Pass, you’re all set to get these as soon as they launch. You can purchase each pack separately.
The first pack, Banned Footage Vol. 1, will be available starting January 31 for $9.99, and includes two tapes as well as a new mode:
