The surprise of the last Resident Evil Showcase couldn’t decently miss another virtual conference, the future of virtual reality, according to Facebook. Resident Evil 4 was present. Short but good there.

Don’t expect Resident Evil Village-esque unboxing. Resident Evil 4 on Oculus Quest appeared rather shyly during the Oculus Gaming Showcase to commemorate its existence and the fact that Capcom and Armature worked hard. We only got a couple of quick extracts.
For more specific information, you had to go to the official website ofOculus. We can find the following:
Resident Evil 4 on Quest 2 builds on the core systems of the original and increases the tension as only virtual reality allows. You can play with it in the first person from Leon’s perspective. With touch controllers, you can interact with the world in a completely new way than what is played on the console. Weapons and items have been redesigned as physical items that you can pick up and interact with. You can also switch weapons by holding them to your body instead of bringing up a menu, and you can use separate weapons with each hand.
You’ll still move the first person with the analog stick, but Armature has fully managed Leon’s torso to combine his movement with the two-handed interactivity achieved with touch controllers. They even added support for teleportation and room-wide movement so that you can explore the area as you wish. With many comfort options, you can also play the game comfortably while seated.
Frame uses core elements from the original Resident Evil 4 to improve gameplay and systems. However, they have also been redesigned – over 4,500 textures have been repainted or their resolution increased. Character animations have been converted true to the original in Unreal Engine 4 and are retained as source material. All film sequences are presented in their original format.
And for an exit window All we know is that Resident Evil 4 will hit Oculus Quest 2 this year. Voili voilou.
