A Japanese gaming analyst has confirmed that Resident Evil 7 is indeed in development and he also stresses that the game will go back to its horror roots.
CEO of Katan Games, Dr. Serkan Toto, tweeted: “About Resident Evil 7: Yes, it’s in development. The entire game will go back to RE’s horror roots and (essentially) be a clean slate. They will show it at E3. The RE7 team hired Jordan Amaro, a designer who previously worked on MGS V and P. T. at Kojima Productions.”
Fans of the older Resident Evil games will be super happy about this. Many people criticized Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6 as those games weren’t survival horror and were more action orientated.
