Resident Evil 7 Biohazard's Collector's Edition Includes Tiny House, USB Finger
Over the years, collector's editions have been responsible for a number of a strange gaming tchotchkes. Thanks to the newly-unveiled Resident Evil 7 Biohazard collector's edition, you can add a house to the list.
Technically, the house is a music box, and it plays a sample of the song "Go Tell Aunt Rhody," a cover of which is the game's main theme. The house stands 8 inches tall and includes flashing LED lights.
Along with the house music box and the actual game, the collector's edition (which is only available through GameStop), also includes:
- Dummy Finger 4G USB Drive
- Exclusive Metal Case
- VHS Tape Box
- Exclusive Lithograph
- Creepy Note
The whole thing retails for $179.99.

Our Take
The house is a nice little curio, I guess, but for $180? No thanks.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
