Knocking down enemies with your fists in first person is something many games tried to implement and often failed. This is a fun new twist that will make it even harder for you to survive. Joe isn’t much of a gun lover and will face his enemies with his bare hands. Joe is Zoe’s uncle and will be our new hero during this episode. Right before Umbrella authorities could swoop her body from the scene, Joe appears and saves her body. Instead, she messed up in the swamp and got calcified. Don’t let this title mistake you, Zoe Baker isn’t the protagonist here. This brings us to the second and final DLC ‘End of Zoe’. It doesn’t offer a lot new to the story but this action-packed epilogue is certainly worth checking out! If you’ve played the classics before, you’ll be filled with joy seeing all those nods and Easter Eggs. Not a Hero feels like a perfect goodbye to the old style and a warm welcome to the new style and what is yet to come. It’s filled with nods towards the classic Resident Evil games and being able to play as Chris once again is a pure joy (especially if you know his infamous punch makes a return).
What I like most about this DLC is the feeling of nostalgia. It’s good to see that the developers try to add some more variation. This more action-orientated approach works but fans will definitely miss some of the puzzles, although there’s a Metroidvania aspect implemented where Chris can venture forward if he improves his gas mask. This results in a more action-packed Resident Evil experience where you’ll gun down new and familiar enemies. This means you’ll have a powerful handgun, shotgun and plenty of ammo when you first jump into the dark mines. You’re not a scared and unprepared man, Chris prepared for combat. Chris teamed up with Umbrella (why is explained at the beginning of the DLC in a couple of lines) and is tasked to hunt down Lucas, who has a secret base in the mines.įighting Lucas offers a different approach than the original story. Right from the start, it’s pretty clear that Capcom doesn’t bother with spoilers, the DLC is meant for players who cleared the original story so there’s no need for hiding Chris Redfield, one of the main characters from older Resident Evil games.
RESIDENT EVIL 7 NOT A HERO FREE
This DLC is free of charge and serves as an epilogue to the original story. With that out of the way, let’s talk more about ‘Not a Hero’. First of all, it’s safe to say we’re going into spoiler territory here so if you haven’t finished the base game, it’s advised to read one of our other reviews, that is if you don’t like spoilers, of course. Let’s start with the first of the two new DLC expansion. Right at the end of the year, we can visit the thrilling world once more thanks to two new expansions. We all loved it and we can’t get enough of it. Resident Evil 7 released back in January and already marked the start of a fantastic year for gamers worldwide. The game is an important turning point for the franchise, moving away from third person action to favor up close and personal first-person action.
