Resident Evil 7, one of the biggest entries in the landmark horror franchise, is out now on iOS for iPhone and iPad.  And the best part? If you're not already a fan or sceptical of how it'll run on your mobile device, you can try it for free before you buy!
Resident Evil 7 is widely regarded as the game which brought back Resident Evil to its horror roots. And while you can debate as to how effective it was, or indeed what bringing a series as eclectic and varied as Resi back to its roots even means, it's undoubtedly one of the best games of the series.
Set in the bayous of Louisana, you play as Ethan Winters who's on the hunt for his missing wife. But when he falls into the clutches of the mysterious, mutated Baker family, it's a fight for survival as you explore the Baker estate to find out what happened to your wife, and discover the true source behind the horror.

A Resi revival?
Resident Evil is one of the most significant franchises in gaming. And although the series was never unpopular, the often intricate storylines tended to deter new players. But Resident Evil 7 and its sequel, Village, helped bring a whole new generation of players into the terrifying, thrilling and (admittedly) sometimes humorous world of Resident Evil.

It seems that, besides revitalizing the Resident Evil franchise, 7 will also now serve as a benchmark alongside Ubisoft release Assassin's Creed: Mirage, to gauge how well Apple's highly-praised AAA quality releases can measure up against their main series counterparts. We'll be monitoring closely to see how it performs.
