Game news Resident Evil 4 Remake: VR mode is finally revealed, a PS5 exclusive that will be talked about!
We know: Capcom and Sony get along well, very well. As for the Resident Evil saga, it will soon be getting a new feature for the RE4: a virtual reality mode, specially made for the PlayStation VR 2.
RVs and not ripe
At the time of the first PlayStation VR on PS4, Resident Evil VII had established itself as the best-selling virtual reality game in Sony’s entire headset catalog. So certainly, it was not a title specially made for this technology, but its compatibility caused a stir and Capcom quickly realized the obvious potential for other episodes of the saga.
This is how Resident Evil Village got an update making it playable with the PSVR2 at the start of the year and, still in the same vein, Capcom had announced a while ago that the Resident Evil 4 Remake was going to be compatible with the new headset signed PlayStation. We finally know what it will be exactly.


Patience is the mother of all VRtus
After long months of waiting, Capcom has therefore chosen the PlayStation Showcase to proudly display its plans for Resident Evil 4: the game will therefore be compatible with the PlayStation VR 2 and no, it will not be a small separate game mode or a bonus aspect. It is indeed the adventure in its entirety which will be playable with a helmet screwed on the head, a treatment similar to that of Resident Evil Village. Treatment which, by the way, had turned out to be impressive and ultra-immersive.
Undoubtedly, Leon S. Kennedy’s journey being already of excellent quality, we hardly dare to imagine the sensations potentially increased tenfold thanks to virtual reality. What’s more, Capcom is beginning to master the exercise particularly well.
This VR mode will be added as a free DLC, exclusively on PS5. Only downside: no release date has yet been announced.
