Resident Evil 4 is one of Capcom’s best selling games. The studio also has a history of other non-VR games and port projects. Original Article (April 16th, 2021): Resident Evil 4 is headed to Quest 2 with the help of Armature Studio, the developer behind Oculus Studios titles Fail Factory! and Sports Scramble for Quest. All of the cutscenes are also going to be left intact, which is a bit of a shame since we’re probably in for a magic window view of things.Ĭheck out some of the new pre-alpha footage below:
Still, many of the things that made the game great, like its original character animations, are remaining the same. Positional audio has been added too, which is a boon for immersion. Over 4,500 textures have been repainted, the studio says. Room-scale, teleportation, and smooth movement are all supported. Weapon holstering will be on-body, so no constantly pausing to rifle through menus. The entire game is being reworked for Oculus Quest 2, and includes interactive physical items such as ammo, keys, and treasures. Update (April 22nd, 2021): Capcom and Oculus showed a bit more of the Resident Evil 4 in action today. And it’s starting to look like a real VR native. During its Game Showcase deluge today, Oculus showed off some more footage of the upcoming Quest 2 port of Resident Evil 4 (2005), which is coming exclusively to Oculus Quest 2 (read: not the original Quest).
