Capcom went public yesterday to tease that Resident Evil 7 is going to come out with the horror genre intact. This is now supported by a leaked screenshot of Resident Evil 7.
The screenshot basically shows Resident Evil 7 being set in Racoon City. The latter is the location setting for the first Resident Evil trilogy and back then everything is all about horror. Hence, it strongly hints on Resident Evil 7 to be terrifying at best.
If so, Resident Evil purists will be most pleased by this. They really hated the action gameplay that was introduced in Resident Evil 4 and has persisted ever since.
Of course, there is no way to be certain just yet. We can only be sure once Resident Evil 7 gets unveiled at the D23 Expo later this year.
