The ESRB has listed Resident Evil 7 on its website and it shows us some small details about the game’s story as well as other gory information.
Resident Evil 7 has Blood and Gore, Intense Violence and Strong Violence. The summary of the plot is simple in this listing, but it tells us the type of gore we will see plus the weapons that you can use. The summary is posted below.
This is a survival-horror game in which players assume the role of Ethan, a man searching for his missing wife in a derelict mansion. From a first-person perspective, players explore the environment and use pistols, shotguns, flamethrowers, explosives and chainsaws to kill mutant creatures. Combat is accompanied by realistic gunfire, screams of pain, and exaggerated blood-splatter effects. As players progress through the story, cutscenes can depict instances of gore and intense acts of violence: a character’s arm dismembered by a chainsaw; a man’s leg taken off at the knee with a shovel; a character impaled through the face with a shovel. Some areas also depict mutilated corpses with exposed organs/viscera. The words “f**k” and “sh*t” are heard in the dialogue
Resident Evil 7 will be released on January 24th, 2017 for the PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
