Game news PS5: Resident Evil 4 announces great news for PlayStation players
Resident Evil 4 will offer a remake very soon and yes, it looks frankly promising. And again, it was without counting on an enticing mode whose development has just begun, as announced by Capcom.

In about a month, the legendary Resident Evil 4 will return as a remake, allowing itself to deepen the formula while proposing a darker, more mature artistic direction. A devilishly awaited experience for many legitimate reasons which will be offered on PC, PS5, PS4 and Xbox Series on March 24th.
However, a certain alliance with Sony is to be expected – the game was also announced during a State of Play – and Capcom has just released important news recently: the development of a new virtual reality mode for Resident Evil 4 has just begun. This one will be destined for the PlayStation VR 2which has just been released on the market and is reserved for PlayStation 5 owners.
We actually knew that the title would offer VR content, without knowing the nature of it: on this side, the publisher has still not delivered concrete information, but the design has in any case started and this is necessarily good news for those concerned. The news of Resident Evil 4 will therefore be in two stages: first at the end of March with the release of the game, then later (in 2023?) with the (free) arrival of virtual reality, via the PSVR2.
RE4 Remake PSVR 2 mode has started development. Stay tuned for more details!

The story repeats itself
This pattern is not new in the Resident Evil saga: for example, he performed for Resident Evil Village, first released in 2021 only to return better this week, with a VR mode for the PlayStation VR2. The first returns are dithyrambic.
If we do not yet know if Resident Evil 4 will propose to do its entire campaign in virtual reality or if it will be a simple small annex mode in VR, remember that the expertise of the developers in the matter n is more to prove: Resident Evil 4 (the original version, this time) had already offered in 2021 in a new form, Resident Evil 4 VR, for players on Oculus. A sensational grind that we had also rated 17/20.

Before that again, the Osaka firm was taking its first steps with the technology via Resident Evil VII, which was compatible with the first PlayStation VR and which had been a hit with the public. We understand better why the company is repeating the experience with the remake of Resident Evil 4 and yes, we hope to be amazed once again.
