If you haven't played Resident Evil 7 yet, this is the perfect opportunity to do so. And if you have, it's a great excuse to replay it. Resident Evil 7 was one our favourite games of 2017 and was awarded the No.4 spot on our overall Best Games of 2017 list.

In GameSpot's Resident Evil 7 review, Scott Butterworth awarded it an 8/10. "Resident Evil 7 ends just as it starts to outstay its welcome, and after the fact, I felt like I'd survived a truly harrowing journey," he said. "The boss fights may be slightly inconsistent and certain sections might drag after a while, but RE7 is still a remarkable success. It has a clear vision and executes it with impressive patience and precision. By returning to horror, Resident Evil has once again become something special."
