Resident Evil 4 Remake VR mode currently in development, will be free DLC

Looking to experience Resident Evil 4 Remake in VR? Look no further.

The highly-anticipated Resident Evil 4 Remake is just under a month away from releasing, and for the VR enthusiasts among us, there’s even more to be excited about; the Resident Evil 4 Remake will have a VR mode.

Announced via a tweet on the official Resident Evil Twitter account , the “VR mode of Resident Evil RE:4 has started development,” and “will be distributed as free DLC for the PlayStation 5/ PlayStation VR2.”

This isn’t the first time that we’re seeing the Resident Evil series playable in virtual reality. The original Resident Evil 4 is available to play in VR, and is one of the best VR games out there. With revitalised combat and the even-mightier looking chainsaw men on your tail during the RE4 Remake, this all-new VR experience might overthrow its predecessor when it comes to terrifying experiences.

Let’s not also forget that the latest from the Resident Evil universe, Resident Evil Village . Castle Dimitrescu can be experienced in all its glory on the PSVR2 right now as a free downloadable DLC for owners of the game. However, if you don’t own a PSVR2, both Village and Resident Evil 7: Biohazard are accessible on VR headsets using Praydog’s mods .

Modder, Praydog, has also provided VR mods for Resident Evil 2 and 3. So, if you can’t stand around waiting for the Resident Evil 4 Remake to launch, or are patiently waiting on that shiny PSVR2 being delivered, there’s plenty other Resident Evil experiences in virtual reality to be had.

The Resident Evil 4 Remake is due to release on March 24 for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. There is no confirmation yet as to when the game’s VR mode will arrive.

As Resident Evil remakes continue to print money, Capcom confirms plans for more of them

But no conirmation as to which games it plans to remake.

To the surprise of presumably no one, Capcom has in fact confirmed that it’s planning another Resident Evil remake - but it hasn’t said which game’s getting one.

It’s no secret that Capcom’s Resident Evil remakes have been doing exceptionally well - Resident Evil 4 Remake sold three million copies within its first two days . So hearing that Capcom is working on more was pretty much a given. Resident Evil 4 Remake director Yasuhiro Anpo was the one to confirm more remakes are on the way, quite simply replying “Yes,” when asked by IGN if the developer had plans for more. “We’ve released three remakes so far and they have all been received very well. Since it allows a modern audience to play these games, it is something I am happy to do as someone that loves these older games, and we want to continue doing more.

“What game we will remake in the future is something that we would like to announce in the future, so please look forward to it.” There hasn’t been any kind of hints so far as to which games Capcom might remake, though it has been trying to figure out which games you want to see remade . Code Veronica seemingly isn’t off the table , but of course there are games like the original Resident Evil or Resident Evil 0. Plus, there’s the more actiony Resident Evil 5, which is the next one numerically, though that one obviously marked quite a shift for the survival horror series.

Capcom does have an “unannounced major title” due out before March 2024 , though I personally wouldn’t bet on a new Resident Evil game. Dragon’s Dogma 2 is out March 22 , but that one was already announced, so it can’t be that. Perhaps there’s a new Monster Hunter on the horizon? We could always hope for a new Lost Planet or Darkstalkers too.
