Ethan Winters returns in this first-person sequel to Resident Evil 7, hunting through a snowy European village ruled by four twisted lords. It mixes gothic horror, action and puzzles in a wild variety of setpieces. Lady Dimitrescu became an internet icon before it even launched.

Loved
- Fantastic variety of horror styles
- Iconic villains
- Great pacing and replay modes
Not so much
- Later sections lean too hard on action
- Story loses focus near the end
Play it if horror fans who want variety and memorable villains.
Skip it if players who want the slow-burn dread of Resident Evil 7.

Tips
Play it better

- Sell treasures to the Duke and buy upgrades; treasure value goes up if you combine gems with their settings.
- Hunt animals around the village and bring meat to the Duke for permanent stat boosts from his dishes.
- Craft ammo as you need it rather than hoarding; different weapons need different materials.
- Destroy the Goats of Warding hidden around the world for a trophy and rewards.
