New updates for "Resident Evil 7" will feature gameplay details on "Not a Hero" DLC and sequel did not reach its target sale.

Capcom announced the gameplay and story details on "Resident Evil 7's" new DLC story "Not a Hero" and it will star "Resident Evil" veteran Chris Redfield. Chris in the game will have players fully prepared within the game unlike the inexperienced Ethan Winters, as he is equipped with the powerful Albert-01 handgun, a new HUD that shows how much ammo Chris has left and reveals his health status, and an oxygen tank that lets him explore harsh environments.

As for the storyline, "Not a Hero" will attempt to connect "Resident Evil 7" to its predecessors as he has a target to reach. Several rumored leaks revealed that Chris will encounter a new BOW monster and players will learn a new ability in the game.

The new enemy type is a twist on the Molded monsters that players encountered many times over in the main "Resident Evil 7" game. The new type of Molded will spew toxic gas, which should force players to change up their combat strategies a bit. As for the new ability, Chris will reportedly be able to punch any enemies that happen to get in his way, which is consistent with the brute force his character has displayed in recent games, Gamerant reported.

In other news, Capcom announced its financial results for the fiscal year as "Resident Evil 7" has reached 3.5 million in global sales, but it did not reach the intended target of 4 million.

Following this is "Monster Hunter XX" which had 1.7 million units, with the intended target of 2 million and "Dead Rising 4" did not reach a million on its intended release, Siliconera reported.

Previous reports revealed that Capcom delayed the release date of "Not a Hero" DLC in "Resident Evil 7" due due to developers wanting to improve it and to live-up to positive feed the sequel had received last year 'til today.

Game producer Masachika Kawata added that Capcom aims to match the high quality of "Not a Hero" DLC to that of the main "Resident Evil 7" game, and needed more time in order to achieve that goal.

"Resident Evil 7" is currently available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
