It's a little touch, and not an entirely remarkable idea for a VR title, but it remains effective in elevating the Resident Evil 4 experience. There's no denying it got me out of some dire situations, though.Īs previously mentioned, actions that were once a simple button press now require physicality from the player, like opening cabinets, drawers, toggling switching, turning door keys, and solving puzzles-it's all done using real-life motion. And, honestly, dual wielding and guns blazing is rarely a route worth taking, as it can be a waste of resources. While its combat is far more versatile in ways the original never could be, like dual-wielding a knife and pistol, or a shotgun and sub-machine gun, don't be fooled: the odds still stacked against me and each onslaught of Ganados felt harrowing-RE4VR still manages to capture the tension and stress of the original very well. Pumping a shotgun and squeezing the trigger point-blank in an enemy's face, followed with a blood-drenched explosion of their skull, only for tentacles to erupt from their neck up close and personal in VR is gasp-inducing, and even when I was shaking with anxiety, I had a smile on my face from ear to ear. Even just opening cabinets was an oddly thrilling new way to interact with a world I know so well.
Shooting dynamite out of someone's hands, juking out of the way of a thrown hatchet, unloading a submachine gun with one hand and pulling out a pistol with the other to shoot off enemies next to me, all felt so satisfying.
VR has excelled at first-person combat, and it shines exceptionally well in RE4VR. And performing nearly every action made me feel like a total president-daughter-saving badass. This means physically loading your gun and cocking it before firing it off, unsheathing your knife to break open crates, or pulling the pin on a grenade and letting it cook before tossing it at the feet of some Ganados. Nearly everything has been updated to accommodate VR: your equipment is now accessible on your physical body-grab at your waist for your pistol, shoulder for your knife, chest for a grenade, and utility belt for weapon magazines. Kennedy on a mission to save the president's daughter has never felt cooler, nor has the horror representation of eastern Europe ever felt more frightening. Stepping into the shoes of protagonist and pretty boy Leon S. From upscaled textures, to sound effects, and animations, RE4 can now be seen-quite literally-through an entirely new lens.
