Players were really excited on knowing more about the Resident Evil 7: Biohazard game after it was revealed at E3 this year. Now a twitter user named Wario64 has spotted some of the details that had been posted by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) on their site, which have since been removed from the board’s website.
The list pretty much gave away an idea about the story and combat manoeuvres which have been implemented in the game. It mentions that players will be able to use a plethora of weapons like “pistols, shotguns, flamethrowers, explosives, and chainsaws” in order to obliterate the mutated beings that they encounter.
The note also mentions that we can expect some pretty extreme graphic violence, including some brutal chainsaw and shovel action and a sequence where a shovel is impaled through a character’s face. Apart from that, you can expect scenes interspersed with absolute gory where distorted corpses with their guts sticking out would be laying around. Adding on to that would be words like ‘f**k’ and ‘s**t’.
The protagonist is apparently a man by the name of Ethan who must scavenge a “derelict mansion” in search of his wife. The name might ring a bell to people who have watched the game’s latest (Lantern) trailer where a woman is heard calling out to him.
The has been M-rated for mature and thus we can expect it to be tainted with a lot of violence. According to Polygon, the rating was accurate and has been confirmed by the ESRB.
Developed by Capcom, the survival-horror game is slated to release over PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC on 24 January, 2017.
