News Resident Evil: Revelations Shuffles onto PS4 Next Month
Dead ahead
Resident Evil: Revelations will be carefully rounding corners on PlayStation 4 next month, Capcom has announced. The current-gen port looks pretty good in the footage that we've been shown so far, especially seeing as it's a touched-up version of a PlayStation 3 title that originated on the 3DS. The game will be available to...

News Capcom's Bringing More Resident Evil to PlayStation VR
You are dead
Resident Evil 7 is considered, by many, to be one of the best experiences that can be had on Sony’s PlayStation VR headset. It’s exciting, then, that Capcom is bringing more Biohazard to virtual reality; less exciting is the fact that Vendetta Z is merely a free experience designed to promote the upcoming CGI movie, Resident Evil...
News Here's How Resident Evil: Revelations Looks on PS4
The first one, to be clear
Capcom refuses to rest until you can play every version of Resident Evil on the PlayStation 4, and… Y’know, we were going to finish this sentence with something snarky, but we suppose there are worse things the publisher could do with its time. Resident Evil: Revelations (the 3DS one, not its superior successor) is the...
Video How Does Resident Evil: Code Veronica X Look on PS4?
Claire almighty
A true classic has arrived as, er, a PS2 Classic on the PlayStation 4 today: Resident Evil: Code Veronica X. This is the first Capcom title to take advantage of Sony’s emulation technology, and it’ll hopefully pave the way for more in the future. In terms of features, it’s packing a Platinum Trophy and is compatible with all of...

News Resident Evil 7 Falls Short of Capcom's Sales Expectations
Despite selling over 3.5 million units so far
Resident Evil 7: Biohazard has failed to meet the sales expectations of publisher Capcom, the firm's latest financial report has revealed. The game – which was something of a critical darling – has sold a very respectable 3.5 million units thus far, but that's some way short of the four million units...
News Resident Evil 7's Free DLC Goes into Hiding Until Later Date
Go tell Aunt Rhody
Resident Evil 7's free DLC pack has been pushed back until an undisclosed later date.

News Capcom's Quest to Get Every Resident Evil Game Ever on PS4 Continues
Simply Redfield
Capcom won't rest until you can play every single Resident Evil game ever made on the PlayStation 4, and next up in its quest appears to be Dreamcast entry Resident Evil Code Veronica. The port's been spotted on the German ratings board, which isn't in the habit of classifying games that don't exist. We're assuming this will be...

News A Familiar Face Returns in Resident Evil 7's Free DLC Not a Hero
Well, not that familiar
Chris Redfield will star in Resident Evil 7's free Not a Hero story expansion this spring, though he won't look like you remember him. Capcom's promising a "short scenario" with a different flavour to Ethan's adventure – it's probably safe to assume that this will be a full-on first-person shooter like the latter stages of...
News Resident Evil 7 Reloads with More DLC Banned Footage
Dinner time
The first chunk of Resident Evil 7 DLC was excellent – even if it arguably should have been included with the main game.

Yeah, it's coming thick and fast, isn't it? This...

Dead to rights
Resident Evil 7: Biohazard looks poised to be a commercial success as well as a critical one. Capcom has announced today that the title has shipped 2.5 million copies for launch, which is a decent figure even if it is less than the rotter Resident Evil 6 managed. We should point out that this number reflects the sum of units that...
Poll Should Resident Evil Remain First-Person for Now?
The million dollar question
For many ardent fans, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard's switch to first-person proved a bigger fright than the game itself – but as reviews proved this week, the change works better than it has any right to. Even those that enjoyed Resident Evil 6 would struggle to argue against the staleness that Capcom's flagship franchise...
Guide Where to Find All 18 Antique Coins in Resident Evil 7
Pelicans in your pocket
Resident Evil 7's upgrade system is, quite frankly, genius. In order to maintain consistency with the grounded nature of the campaign, Capcom has done away with Australian accented merchants and complicated mission complete screens. Instead, it's incorporated Antique Coins: collectibles located around the Baker plantation...
Guide Which Difficulty Should You Play Resident Evil 7 On?
Madhouse
There are three different difficulty settings for you to choose from in Resident Evil 7, but which one should you pick?

We should stress straight away that...
News Resident Evil 7's First DLC Launches Next Week on PS4
Cut content?
Hmmm. While we're champing at the bit for more of the excellent Resident Evil 7, we're not sure how we feel about the first pack being released so early.

News Resident Evil 7 Sharpens Up the Scares on PS4 Pro
Sony's new hardware leveraged to great effect
Resident Evil 7 is a stunning game. Running at a near locked 60 frames-per-second, the release has some ridiculously good lighting, which makes its Louisiana setting sing on the PlayStation 4. But the title's also making use of the PS4 Pro in some pretty positive ways, as this comparison between the two...
Feature Is Resident Evil 7 Any Good with PlayStation VR?
Back to the Kitchen
Resident Evil 7 is something of a rarity: it's a major PlayStation 4 title which can be played in virtual reality from start-to-finish using PlayStation VR. There are very few cut corners here – aside from the pre-rendered cut-scenes which annoyingly play in Cinematic Mode – and Capcom deserves credit for that; at a time when...

News Resident Evil 7 Custom PS4 Controller Has Dummy Fingers for Triggers
You are dead
Vulpe Andrei is a dab hand at console and controller mods, having been behind some of our favourites in the past. But this custom Resident Evil 7 DualShock 4 is a cut above his usual work; the attention to detail is insane. While the pad's ugly by design, we absolutely love some of the touches, like the use of dummy fingers for the...
Feature 5 Crucial Resident Evil 7 Questions Answered
'Cos Capcom ain't sayin' much
Resident Evil 7 releases in less than a week, but questions are still circling Capcom's latest like a bad smell. Can you play the game without PlayStation VR? Is there a co-op mode?

Not dead yet
Earlier this year, Capcom stated that it expected to sell 4 million copies of Resident Evil 7 over its first couple of months on the market.

Gamescom 2016 Resident Evil 7 Really Is Going Full Survival Horror
Scared?
This is tense, isn't it? Capcom's released a new Resident Evil 7 trailer to coincide with Gamescom 2016, and it really ratchets up the tension. The clip takes the form of some found footage – which should be familiar to anyone who played the recent demo – and sees a woman attempting to send a message to a man named Ethan. Unfortunately...

E3 2016 Resident Evil 7 Producer Was Gutted by Silent Hills' Cancellation
"I really loved it"
Resident Evil 7 looks to have taken a little inspiration from P.T., the demo for Silent Hills.

That said, it sounds like everyone at Capcom was a big fan of the concept – and the publisher was sad to see the...

Knocked for six
How did this happen? No, really – how did this happen? Resident Evil 6, the most recent numbered entry in Capcom's iconic survival horror series, is an unmitigated mess – a real turd of a game that's so downright bad that it beggars belief.

Dead good
Resident Evil's been in a bit of a rut of late, and Resident Evil: Revelations 2 never looked like it was going to break that cycle prior to release.
