Resident Evil 7 biohazard ended up being one of the most surprising games of 2017, as it ended up being a true return to form for Capcom's signature horror franchise. It took the series in a bold new direction with a first-person view, but also managed to retain what so many fans loved about the series in the first place. Director Koshi Nakanishi believes that combat was one of the main reasons for its success, and said so much in a new video interview.
