The remake of Resident Evil 4 became one of the best games of 2023, so Capcom received a lot of trust from gamers and could afford to experiment.
Like the VR modes in Resident Evil VII and Resident Evil Village, which found great success, the VR in Leon's latest adventure looks just as promising. The developers at the Japanese studio responsible for transforming the third-person game into first-person VR talk about the behind-the-scenes of their work and creative approach.
As is usually the case with these types of marketing speeches, the PlayStation VR 2 is praised here, but there are also some sensible thoughts. The authors focused on conveying the atmosphere and darkness inherent in the “flat” version, using the capabilities of the PlayStation 5 for realistic lighting, the tactile vibrations of the DualSense VR controllers and the freedom that comes from being in this world.
