Resident Evil 7 Biohazard is the latest AAA title to arrive on Apple's platforms. The game originally launched on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC back in 2017, and since then has graced multiple other platforms, including the Nintendo Switch and even the defunct Google Stadia. Now, it is available on the iPhone 15 Pro and all iPad and Mac models with M-series chips.
RE7 is a highly celebrated installment in the RE library even by the series' generally high standards. It was a return to roots for the franchise with a strong focus on survival horror over action and gunplay that dominated the previous couple of games. It was also the first to switch to a more intimate first-person view for the character, which makes the body horror especially visceral and effective.
RE7 features the story of Ethan Winters whose wife goes missing for three years until one day when she sends him a cryptic message calling him to a house in the backwaters of Dulvey, Louisiana. While creepy enough as is, nothing could have prepared Ethan for the horrors that lie waiting for him in that place. RE7 was a fantastic return to form for the series originally known for its survival horror gameplay.
It is, without a doubt, the scariest game in the entire series, with the opening mission, in particular, often causing you to stay rooted in place, too scared to move even though all you're expected to do is walk around this seemingly empty house. The long, dark hallways of the opening area particularly remind one of P.
