The reset that pulled the series back to survival horror: first-person, confined to a single decaying Louisiana estate, with scarce ammo and a family that hunts you through it. The Baker house section is among the best horror the series has produced. After you leave it the game becomes far more scripted and linear, and the boss design is the weakest part of the package.
Released 5 years after ZombiU.

The shootdodge finally has weight behind it: bullets tear through cover, animations blend into terrain, and the last-stand mechanic keeps firefights tense. Some of the best gunfeel of its generation. It is also the most controlling — long unskippable cutscenes stitch between fights, and the linear corridors leave little room to approach an encounter your own way.
