Loading screens are simple pop-up screens found in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, which are often seen if the player dies or restarts in a certain area. They often display tips on certain enemies and bosses in the game, or display a continuation of the story from where the player left off, alongside an image of either a location, item, enemy or character in the game. Certain tips will be displayed based on the player's progress through each game mode.

Initial loading screen (Professional Mode)
Professional Difficulty Mode

After Lucas straps a bomb on Chris' arm
Resume Pursuit
Lucas, dressed as a downed soldier, straps a bomb to Chris' arm and kills one of the missing advance unit soldiers. Chris has a feeling Lucas will be more trouble than he originally thought.
Chris makes it into the cell only to see his comrade brutally murdered by Lucas. Now that he has the enhanced filter, he can enter heavily-contaminated areas, but what awaits him among the clouds of spores?

Clancy wakes to the musty stink of unwashed linen. Where the hell is this? Why is he on bed? It takes a moment for the truth to hit: It wasn't just a nightmare. That woman caught him, and shoved something strong-smelling under his nose.
Three years ago, the Bakers were like any other family. They had just finished a family dinner, listening to the raindrops hammering against the window panes as they ate. A moment of peace and quiet---their last for some time.

Hounded by the Bakers, Clancy runs through an open door in the yard and finds himself stumbling through mannequins and rooms madly dashed in white. What kind of freak would build all of this? Clancy's answer comes a moment later. "Think you're lucky? We'll see about that!" Struck from behind, he blacks out...
