Resident Evil Village recently got a VR mode exclusive to PSVR 2. While VR enthusiasts are excited, it also turns out that the game has one major problem: it’s broken and may even become unplayable.
While Resident Evil 4 Remake on PS5 disappoints and divides fans with its demo, Village which he’s trying to do with a big mistake with his VR mode. While virtual reality enthusiasts can rediscover Resident Evil Village thanks to PSVR 2 recently, a major issue may ruin some players’ experience, but Capcom is here to help.
Resident Evil Village is in big trouble on PSVR 2
If this new VR mode from Resident Evil Village has very good qualities, in particular a reinforced immersion and a gameplay completely reinvented for the occasion, it also has some optimization concerns. It is precisely here that a mistake is causing problems.
After receiving a lot of feedback from its community, Capcom investigated and was able to identify a major bug that may completely prevent players from progressing in the story if they are unlucky enough to exploit the bug in question. A bug that blocks progress and makes saving unusable.
However, Capcom is there and should fix the problem quickly. La Frime has also announced that a patch will be arriving soon via its social networks.
We have confirmed an error in the mode Resident Evil Village VR for PSVR2, making it impossible to progress in certain areas. An update patch will be released in the next few days. We apologize for the inconvenience caused.

How do I avoid being blocked? Capcom gives temporary solution (minor spoilers)
The bug in question can be triggered in the Benevento house when you’re looking for the elevator fuse in the dark while being chased by the giant, disgusting (and creepy) mutant baby. The bug that causes the problem makes it possible to open a normally closed door, thus restoring the fuse, without even crossing the monster. Unfortunately, if it can save you a heart attack, this error blocks progress and is the end of your game. Capcom announces all the details of the process on its official website. Therefore, may not be reproduced unless you wish to block your game play.
when you play Resident Evil Village In VR on PSVR 2 it is possible to get stuck and unable to progress under the following conditions:
In the Beneviento house, after acquiring the security key but before meeting the baby, it is possible to get into the medicine room through the study door. This door should normally be locked, and through it it’s possible to get the fuse without ever encountering the mutant baby. This way you can’t progress past this point in the game.
We are currently working on a fix for this issue, but until it is available we recommend players to avoid the situation described above.
Resident Evil Village is available on PS5, Xbox Series, Switch (via the cloud), PC, PS4 and Xbox One. The PSVR 2 mode is obviously exclusive to the PS5 and is free to download as long as you own the original game.
