Surviving the village sequence, a funny egg toss, a run-in with a Regenerator, and more RE4 VR clips
To a certain extent, I was perfectly fine living in the land of blissful ignorance with respect toResident Evil 4VR. But after hearingsuch great thingsabout it — and seeing it in action with clips that really show off the heightened sense of player freedom — I’m starting to visualize a few hundred dollars vanishing from my bank account in the near future.
First up, the iconic village. This clip fromEchoSmokercaptures the adrenaline-pumping scramble of being cornered by a group with a chainsaw in the mix, and it’s so stylish.

You know I love a goodRE4egg clip, and here’s anotherfun one:

It’s funny that something as simple as theshooting gallery mini-game— a staple of VR gaming that has completely lost its novelty for me — still looks entertaining here.

As Chris mentioned in his review, the Regenerators arenot to be underestimated.

Basically, all of the wacky player antics that makeResident Evil 4such a blast to replay year after yearalsotranslate super well to VR (courtesy of developerArmature Studio).
Classic tricks like the flash grenadebirdpocalypsestill work, and it’s fun to see them from an up-close-and-personal perspective. I’m sure VR players will quickly figure out new tactics, too. (It’s a shame Mercenaries mode didn’t make the cut; think of that skill ceiling.)
Can I hold out for a non-Oculus Quest 2version ofResident Evil 4VR? I won’t be shocked if it’s a permanent exclusive, but I sure would be disappointed by that turn of events. Much likeHalf-Life: Alyxand evenResident Evil 7before it, this game is too great to be confined anywhere — it deserves a spot in every virtual-reality ecosystem that can support it.
