Fans were also expecting a version of the game on the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4 when the consoles came out late in 2013 but Capcom only released the version of the game for the current generation gaming consoles on March 29, 2016.
“Resident Evil 7” is the 10th game in the series and it is nearly impossible to come out this year because its predecessor game just came out on the gaming consoles in March.
Another issue that went against “Resident Evil 6” is that the game already deviated from its genre of being a survival horror game the way the gaming franchise has been known for since the first game of the series was released back in 1996.
Masachika Kawata, executive producer of “Resident Evil 7” in Capcom, confirmed in a recent interview that the next installment of the game will go back to its original gameplay as the franchise looks back to its roots.
Capcom apparently recognized that many gamers were not happy with “Resident Evil 6” because it moved away from its horror genre and contented itself with being an action game with plenty of shootings and the horror element is just considered part of the drama.
