5 Most Anticipated Games of 2017
5. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard
Resident Evil 6 was ‘meh’, as it faced a backlash from the hardcore fans for being more focused on action rather than the horror aspect. However, Capcom has learned from its mistakes as the Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is not short of absolute brilliance in horror genre. The trailers had us at the edge of the seat and wait for the dread and suspense.
This first person shooter has gone back to its roots of being horror survival with a dark and eerie environment.

2. Legend of Zelda – Breath of the Wild:
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is probably one of the most anticipated games as it was announced in 2013 and fans have waited for almost four years for its release.
