Several months before the much-anticipated arrival of "Resident Evil 7: Biohazard," the players can already expect additional content packs for the upcoming video game. 

Recently, a Swedish retailing company, Discshop has revealed the pre-order bonus DLC for the upcoming "Resident Evil" title. The content packs will be released together with the main "Resident Evil 7," Yibada reported. Specifically, Dischshop unveiled four unique items packs that will go with the game after pre-ordering the game. These are the  Handgun Set, Burner Set, Chem Fluid Set and Recovery Set,

Each of these content packs includes additional items and weapons that will help the player on different missions. The Handgun set, for example, will be introducing new ammo and artilleries for the players' use, while the Recovery set will include herbs to heal the players' damage. The Burner set is speculated to include a flamethrower weapon, which is very helpful in defeating a large number of enemies.

Meanwhile, Capcom has continued to reveal tidbits of information about the next haunting location of the "Resident Evil" franchise. The recent sets of teaser photos and videos gave the fans a mini tour of the Dulvey Haunted House, the place where most of the action and horror will occur in the latest "Resident Evil" installment. According to Game Spot, the teasers show the Baker family residing in this horrifying mansion. There is also a scene where the family is feasting over a hideous-looking dinner on the table. As already shown in the previous game demo for "Resident Evil 7," it was revealed that the Baker family will serve as the primary antagonists of the story.

In the most recent demo for "Resident Evil 7," the matriarch of the Baker family, Marguerite, was seen chasing after the story's seemingly new female lead, Mia. There is more to be revealed about Marguerite's intention in putting Mia under their captivity, as well as the reason behind the family's disappearance from the public eye, not to mention their presently odd appearance and behavior.

"Resident Evil 7: Biohazard" is set to release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC platforms on Jan. 24, 2017.
