The only review I was really interested in, UploadVR. They played the whole game with PSVR and loved it.

I can no longer tell if the heavy breathing I hear is coming from my own mouth, or from the mouth of Ethan, the main protagonist I’m controlling in Resident Evil 7 on PS4 using a PS VR headset. Using my actual body, I lean forward on my couch, craning my neck around the in-game corner to my left, trying to see if Jack, the hulking mass of seemingly invincible mutated flesh, has passed by yet. Just before I take my step around the corner, much to my horror, Jack grabs me from behind and for a moment it’s as if I can feel his breath and spit on my face. He throws me to the ground, cursing at me, and raises his shovel high above his head. With a loud thud, he slams it down into my shin, slicing my leg in half. For a split second there’s the illusion of pain — a sudden twitch of realism — before Ethan bleeds out and dies not just before my eyes, but within myself, as I sit there stunned inside the immersive power of virtual reality.

Honestly, I don’t know if the world is ready for a game like Resident Evil 7: Biohazard in VR and that’s exactly what makes it so exhilarating.

Final Score: 9/10 – Amazing

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard sets a new bar for survival horror games and stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the best games in the franchise’s long history. By uniting elements from the past, such as the slow pacing, focus on exploration, mind-bending puzzles, and desperation for survival, with the pulse-pounding first-person gameplay of the recent era of horror games, Capcom has crafted a veritable modern classic. Resident Evil 7 embraces virtual reality as a medium and proves that you don’t have to cut corners or make sacrifices to create a compelling VR experience.


Damn, I never before felt this anxious (with a slight sense of dread) to get my hands on a game. One more day.

Just played it for about an hour.

Holy shit.

Felt butterflies in my stomach the whole time. Like something horrible was going to happen at any moment. And it did. Some genuine scares here. Everybody needs to try it in VR. This was amazing!

Only my VR arms took me out of the immersion.

I,m picking it up this afternoon. I played the demo again last night to get in the mood. This time I played standing up for full 360 rotation. Meeting that monster again in the basement had my hands shaking afterwards. I panicked, got the infected ending again, so horrible :)
