Resident Evil 4: VR announced for Oculus Quest 2

[--R]

​

Capcom and Facebook announced Resident Evil 4 for VR Thursday during the Resident Evil Showcase. The Oculus Quest 2 port will shift the game from its normal third-person view to first-person; players will only see Leon S. Kennedy's hands as he shoots, slashes, and types his way through Resident Evil 4 VR. Mike Verdu, VP of content at Facebook Reality Labs, called the virtual reality version of RE4 "immersive […] and will bring new richness and depth to the Resident Evil experience you know and love."

Capcom, Oculus Studios, and Armature Studio are co-developing the Oculus Quest 2 version of Resident Evil 4. Verdu promised more details on Resident Evil 4 VR at Facebook's Oculus Gaming Showcase on Wednesday, April 21.

What does Capcom have against PCVR?

 

[MillionIII]

U WUT

 

[ghostcrew]

Omgggg

RE4 is the new Doom on everything

 

[Theiea]

Capcom hates PCVR. :(

 

[Lukar]

Quest 2 only? Was really hoping they'd support Rift as well. :/ Ugh.

 

[Neoxon]

Cool, but unfortunate that it's exclusive to Oculus.

 

[Plasma]

Just Quest 2, they're not even putting it out on the original Quest?

Facebook money.

 

[LetalisAmare]

Yeeeeah. This should be fun.

 

[Desma]

Boy, would I play that

 

[Kalor]

Unfortunate it's tied to Oculus but it looks cool. Seem to have put the work in based on the trailer

 

[Semajer]

Looks like the HD mod boys have more work to do.

This is bankrolled by Oculus that's why.

 

[Patazord]

Damn the leak was true then.

 

[Zips]

If this is a Quest 2 exclusive when there are so many additional PCVR devices around I'm going to be livid.

 

[-Le Monde-]

Freaking FB.

 

[Frosty Death Knight]

It's never felt worse to own a quest 1.

 

[Kingpin Rogers]

I was really really hoping this wouldn't be the case.

I guess I'm buying VR and changing up my bedroom so I have space for it.

Can Oculus games work on the Valve Index or whatever it's called?

 

[Lant_War]

This should be fucking awesome. Might even be the definitive way to play.

 

[nightstalker962]

I'd play the shit out of this.

 

[Cloud-Hidden]

Just got my Quest 2 last week, and already they've dropped a huge firmware update and now this. I hit the jackpot and joined at the perfect time I guess.

 

[tacocat]

I will pay full price for this. Hoping this comes out soon.

 

[Fisty]

Does Quest require a FB acct?

It likely is

In my veins! What a dream this is!

Quest 2 has outsold all of them combined, and it's easier to develop only for one platform.

 

[Platy]

When was this announced ? The showcase i saw didn't have this

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Oculus exclusives.

Fun.

This is a Quest 2 game, so it has to be played on Quest 2 (and future Quest).

Older Oculus games with PC version can be.

 

[Akronis]

Yes

 

[Schlorgan]

Oh man.

I need to get a Quest 2.

 

[Edward]

Can't wait. Bought my Quest 2 day 1 been dreaming of another zombie game since i beat TWD S&S.

Capcom doesn't give a shit about VR unless Sony and Facebook are paying them to.

 

[Deleted member 16876]

So is this actually the remake of 4 or just another version?

 

[EinBear]

Well, looks like I'm buying a Quest 2.

Strap a third controller to your leg for roundhouse kicks

 

[1-D_FE]

Cool, but unfortunate that it's exclusive to Oculus.

As far as I'm concerned, way better than being exclusive to Sony. These type of games are meant to be played with 360 degree freedom.

 

[KosmonavtTomas]

Ahhh! I'll buy it at a high price!

 

[Fisty]

Yes

Click to shrink...

Like... no way around it?

 

[Deleted member 12129]

Can we use ReVive for this?

 

[jack.]

I'm so pumped for this. I was expecting it to be a straight 3rd person port with Wii aiming controls or something but this looks great.

 

[TheBaldEmperor]

It's never felt worse to own a quest 1.

Click to shrink...

Freaking same...

 

[ghostcrew]

After joking that RE4 is ported to everything... kinda weird that this is Quest 2 only. No Quest 1? No Oculus Rift?

 

[SEATLiens]

Almost worth making a fb account

 

[Donepalace]

Lol if Facebook thinks I will go out and buy one of there sets for the game they are mistaken lol

 

[jack.]

Can we use ReVive for this?

Click to shrink...

No. This is a Quest-native game. It doesn't run on PC.

 

[Heatster101]

Day one, hell yeah

 

[Donepalace]

It looks like it's basically a modded version with extras for the franchise compat
