Weapons will be scarce
In an attempt to get back to its horror based roots, and away from the set piece scenes of the Resident Evil 6, RE 7 will be less about gunning things down, and more about figuring out when to use your precious few bullets. Throughout the game, “cages” unlocked with coins will contain weapons, health, and upgrades that players can use to improve their chances as they navigate the mansion.
The game’s developers have stated that they didn’t want the anxiety that comes from playing the game to be without release. You won’t always be powerless, but you will need to be careful about when you use the tools you have. If you’re looking for a shootout, this may not be the game for you.
