The fact that Resident Evil 4 is about 14 years older than the Resident Evil 2 remake obviously makes a huge impact on the graphical qualities too, but either way when you’re jumping from one to the other in VR, the improvement in visuals makes Resident Evil 2 look almost photorealistic at times.

So how does this mod compare to Resident Evil 4 VR, the Quest 2 exclusive VR remake that released a couple of weeks ago? Well for a start, thanks to the fact the mod isn’t running on a stand-alone headset, the level of graphical detail that I experienced was incredibly high compared to that of Resident Evil 4 VR. It wasn’t, of course, but that just makes the mod even more impressive and I’m pretty sure it’s going to be something that both Resident Evil and VR fans will be excited to try out for themselves in the future. In it, I make my way through the Gas Station and Raccoon City Police Department portions of Claire’s chapter using the mod’s first-person mode for added immersion.Īs you’ll be able to see, while it is still in need of some polishing, Praydog’s mod often comes close to making it feel like the Resident Evil 2 remake was made with native, first-person VR in mind. Rather than playing through Leon’s campaign, which has been featured heavily in other videos about this mod, I’ve decided to slip into Claire Redfield’s signature red leather jacket for this Let’s Play in order to show off a fresh perspective.

While this mod is yet to be released to the general public, myself and a handful of other VR fans have been given access to an incredibly impressive early build, which you can see in action in this week’s episode of VR Corner. After more than two years of tinkering with the RE Engine, master modder Praydog is close to releasing a VR mod for the Resident Evil 2 remake that boasts motion controller support and the ability to play through the game in either third or first-person.
