This gives almost all weapons in the game a very heavy and uncontrollable recoil (much heavier compared to real life, almost unrealistically so for the pistol-caliber weapons), forcing players to fire shots slowly (about one round each second) to stay accurate, preventing them from simply gunning down all opposition before it gets close enough to do harm. Recoil in Resident Evil 7 is simulated by implementing crosshair bloom when the player fires while aiming, the crosshair momentarily expands to the wide hipfire crosshair after the shot is fired. The sole exception is Chris Redfield, player character of DLC campaign "Not a Hero", who will aim down his sights when the aim key is used, like a traditional first-person shooter.

For most player characters in Resident Evil 7, aiming will not make them actually aim down their firearms' sights instead, the game simply tightens the crosshair and gives a very slight zoom to assist in aiming. Weapons may be fired from the hip or fired while aiming. Instead, this title is a first-person shooter, intended to provide a new perspective on the survival horror gameplay and act as a "killer app" for the PlayStation VR headset, sixteen years after the release of Resident Evil Survivor 2 – Code: Veronica, the RE series' previous foray into the FPS genre.
RESIDENT EVIL 7 BIOHAZARD MODS SERIES
The game is notable for being the first mainline series game not played in the traditional third-person fixed-camera view of early Resident Evil titles, nor the third-person over-the-shoulder view pioneered in Resident Evil 4 and onwards. "End of Zoe", also set after the main story, stars the reclusive and non-infected Baker family member Joe Baker, who returns to the Baker house to save the life of his infected niece Zoe Baker, and kill every last remaining monster on the Baker plantation to protect Zoe. specialist Chris Redfield venturing into the salt mines that surround the Baker family household to hunt down an escaped Baker family member and tie up some loose ends. "Not a Hero" is set after the events of the main story, and features anti-B.O.W. The game received several DLCs, including two major campaign story DLCs, "Not a Hero" and "End of Zoe". With nothing but his wits and will to survive, Ethan must overcome the homicidal and relentless Baker family members, survive among the roving packs of Bio Organic Weapons (B.O.W.s) stalking the plantation, and uncover the truth of what happened there if he is to have a chance of saving his wife or even himself.

Things soon take a horrific turn for the worst after he finds his wife has somehow gone insane, and was subsequently captured by the violent and seemingly-unkillable Baker family on their isolated plantation. Set after the events of Resident Evil 6, the player is given control of Ethan Winters, an average Joe who is looking for his missing wife, Mia, after receiving a mysterious message instructing him to travel to the fictional town of Dulvey, Louisiana. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is a first-person survival horror game and the ninth numbered installment in the main-line Resident Evil video game series.
