Moons from Game Pass: Resident Evil 7

After a short Christmas break, in the Xbox zone, we’re back with one of the most beloved sections. Our Mondays are always a little happier if we talk about some of the great games we can enjoy on Xbox Game Pass.

Today, maybe because of this wintry environment we woke up wanting to be a little scared. And now is the time to curl up in a blanket and enjoy a good horror movie or in this case, a game.

That’s why looking at the vast Xbox catalog, we always find the strange professor that we go unnoticed. This is one of those cases. It’s not an unfamiliar game, not at all, but it is more and more common that big games are overlooked at the height of Resident Evil 7

. Without a doubt, Microsoft has got us very badly used to it.

A change of perspective

Resident Evil 7 It’s one of those games that has come to our consoles with a halo of controversy. The work of Capcom

, had changed one of the franchise’s identity signs. His third person camera had died in this new installment, now we were going to feel and experience it all in first person.

This change of perspective led many fans to enter the game with some doubts about the quality of the game. These doubts would soon be dispelled. Resident Evil 7 it would become a shiny version, becoming the bestseller of the series. But how did he do it?

Resident Evil 7 not only did he bring a new approach with his first person camera. This version makes use of a renewed graphics engine that has managed to generate unprecedented immersion. The design of its sets and characters was superb.

Although if we’re being honest, one of the most striking things about this launch was its lighting effects. Walking around their rooms while we listened to the footsteps around us and saw how the light entered the room is a spectacular experience.

A family of monsters

Another of the points of differentiation of this seventh numbered installment was the change made in relation to enemies. In Resident Evil 7, the zombies so characteristic of the saga have given way to new horrorsParticularly noteworthy is the involvement of the Baker family.

The family and each of its members, are used as part of the playable formula

. This makes each of them a boss that we will have to defeat in our adventure, but be careful, they are all very different from each other.

Despite all these changes, Resident Evil 7 It was a return to the origins of the saga. Maybe with everything I’ve written you think I’m crazy, but let me explain. Resident Evil 7 It’s a return to the mechanics much more typical of the saga. Something that had started to get lost within the franchise, until it collapsed completely Resident Evil 6, which we prefer not to talk about today.

The last numbered section of the work of Capcom, referred to origins where ammunition was scarce, puzzles were a key part of its gameplay and the fear of being caught by a brutal enemy was present in every room. With all of this, we can only recommend that you play this authentic masterpiece if you haven’t already. Without further ado, we say goodbye to another week in Xbox Area.
