PS5 Resident Evil Biohazard Gold Edition (US)

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard Gold Edition is the complete, definitive version of Capcom's landmark 2017 survival horror title — delivering the full base game alongside every piece of DLC released under the Season Pass: Banned Footage Vol. 1, Banned Footage Vol. 2, the End of Zoe epilogue episode, and the Not a Hero bonus chapter starring Chris Redfield. Played as Ethan Winters searching for his missing wife in a desolate Louisiana plantation, RE7 marked the series' bold shift to a first-person perspective and intimate, claustrophobic horror — earning widespread critical acclaim and reinvigorating the survival horror genre. The PS4 version also supports full PlayStation VR for an unmatched immersive horror experience, and owners receive a free PS5 digital upgrade.

•  The Complete Resident Evil 7 Experience in One Package — Base Game Plus All Season Pass DLC: The Gold Edition assembles the full RE7 content library into a single release — the complete main campaign as Ethan Winters, both Banned Footage DLC volumes (six additional standalone modes including the punishing Ethan Must Die roguelite challenge, the psychological Bedroom escape sequence, and the party-game chaos of Jack's 55th Birthday), the End of Zoe epilogue that completes Zoe Baker's story through Joe Baker's brawler-style gameplay, and the Not a Hero bonus chapter that follows Chris Redfield in a direct continuation of the main game's ending. Purchasing the Gold Edition gives players every story beat and every gameplay mode in the RE7 universe without tracking down separate DLC purchases.
•  First-Person Survival Horror — The Series' Most Terrifying and Intimate Entry: Resident Evil 7 abandoned the franchise's third-person action formula and returned to horror fundamentals — placing the camera directly behind Ethan Winters' eyes inside a rotting Louisiana plantation crawling with the monstrous Baker family and their grotesque Molded creatures. The first-person perspective makes every encounter viscerally immediate: enemies charge from directly ahead, hallways narrow to suffocating tightness, and the limited inventory forces players to choose every item with care. RE7's return to resource scarcity, puzzle-solving, and atmospheric dread earned it a Metacritic score of 86 on PS4 and revived survival horror as a commercially viable AAA genre.

•  Full PlayStation VR Support — The Entire Game Playable in Virtual Reality: RE7 is one of very few AAA games to support full PlayStation VR playthrough of the complete main campaign — not just a demo or standalone VR mode, but the entire Ethan Winters story from beginning to end in immersive VR. Playing in PSVR transforms an already terrifying game into one of the most acclaimed VR horror experiences available — placing the player physically inside the Baker mansion's decaying corridors and forcing every jump scare, every enemy encounter, and every puzzle directly into the player's field of view. Note: PSVR support applies to the PS4 version; PS5 players must play on PS4 mode to access PSVR.
•  Banned Footage DLC — Six Standalone Modes That Expand Horror Beyond the Campaign: The two Banned Footage volumes introduce six mechanically distinct gameplay modes that each take the RE7 engine in a radically different direction: Nightmare is a wave-based survival shooter; Bedroom is a tension-filled escape room scenario; Ethan Must Die is a brutal roguelite permadeath challenge with randomly placed items; 21 is a lethal card game against Jack Baker; Daughters tells a prequel story from Zoe's perspective on the night the Bakers were infected; and Jack's 55th Birthday is a timed comedic challenge to feed the indestructible patriarch before the clock runs out. The range of tones and mechanics across these six modes makes the Banned Footage content essential for players who want the full RE7 experience beyond the main narrative.
•  Free PS5 Upgrade and Cross-Generation Value — One Purchase, Two Generations: PS4 disc owners of Resident Evil 7 Gold Edition are entitled to a free digital PS5 version upgrade — meaning a single physical purchase of the Gold Edition delivers the PS4 game immediately and unlocks the next-generation PS5 version at no additional cost. This cross-buy value is particularly significant for players who own or plan to own a PS5, as the PS5 version delivers faster loading times via the PS5's SSD and retains all Gold Edition DLC content. The only exception: PS4 disc owners purchasing the discless PS5 Digital Edition cannot claim the free PS5 upgrade, as the console has no disc reader to verify ownership.
