Resident Evil 4 VR players are sharing their best clips, and I think I need this game

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 to Resident Evil 4 VR. But after hearing such great things about 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 from captures the adrenaline-pumping scramble of being cornered by a group with a chainsaw in the mix, and it’s so stylish.

Basically, all of the wacky player antics that make Resident Evil 4 such a blast to replay year after year also translate sꦫuper well to V🍒R (courtesy of developer ).

Classic tricks like the flash grenade still 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- version of Resident Evil 4 VR? I won’t be shocked if it’s a permanent exclusive, but I sure would be disappointed by that turn of events. Much like Half-Life: Alyx and even Resident Evil 7 before it, this game is too great to be confined anywhere — it deserves a spot in every virtual-reality ecosystem that ༒can support it.
