Despite launching in four months, there's still a lot to be revealed.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard's pre-order bonus items were recently detailed via a Swedish retailer's product page, and even if the survival kits look familiar, the size, nature and presentation of these items caused some to think that Capcom was planning on also selling them as standalone microtransactions. This, however, won't be the case, as the company confirmed to Videogamer:

"Whilst there will be pre-order bonus items and DLC available to purchase for Resident Evil 7, there will not be any micro-transactions in the game".

With the full game itself shrouded in mystery, it seems early to get more details on their DLC plans, but then again Resident Evil VII is scheduled to launch in four months (January 24th on PC, PS4, and Xbox One), and very little has been shown so far, leading to even more confusion and speculation.
