After the brilliantly spooky showcase of Resident Evil Village and the internet’s collective obsession with tall vampire lady, I got to thinking about my terrifying experience with Resident Evil 7 in VR and what it might mean for the future of the series.

I’m driven to play horror games in VR in search of the answer to one simple question: Can this game scare me more than I’ve ever been scared before? The launch of Resident Evil 7 VR in 2017 answered that question in spectacular fashion. That’s why I jumped at PSVR on day one and awaited a true showcase of its horrifying potential. With the rise of VR, horror is getting more chances to truly shine. There’s something so raw and exciting about being terrified and that’s why I love horror games in particular.
