Facebook has released a new gameplay trailer for Resident Evil 4 VR and announced that the game will be released on October 21, exclusively for Oculus Quest 2.
The new action-packed gameplay trailer above is the best look we’ve got of the game yet, following up on footage from April.
Resident Evil 4 VR was announced earlier this year during Capcom’s Resident Evil showcase, developed by Armature exclusively for Quest 2. This means that only owners of Quest 2 (and, presumably, all future standalone Oculus headsets that don’t have yet to be announced) will be able to get their hands on this VR port of the seminal survival horror game. The original Quest headset will not be supported, nor will the title release on PC VR or PSVR platforms.
As previously announced, Facebook says you’ll be able to play standing or seated with support for different movement modes, including both teleport and room scale. We also got more details on some of the changes to the game to make it more VR, according to the Oculus blog:
You’ll still be moving using the analog stick, but Armature has added a full upper body platform above Leon’s character to combine his movement with the two-handed interactivity achieved with the touch controllers. Weapons and items have been redesigned as physical items, so you can pick them up and interact with them. Finally, rather than navigating a menu to swap weapons, you can grab them from your body.
The announced release date means the game will be available ahead of Facebook’s annual Connect AR and VR developer conference, which is slated to begin later than usual this year on October 28. We previously thought we might hear about an RE4 release date, but it looks like the title will release a week early, just in time for Halloween at the end of the month.
Resident Evil 4 VR will be available exclusively on Oculus Quest 2 on October 21.
