Resident Evil 2 News

You can now play Resident Evil 7 and Village in fully-immersive VR on PC

The prolific modder who brought both Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 remakes to VR has gone to even further lengths to bring the Resident Evil universe to a virtual reality headset near you. This time around, Praydog has updated and added to a handful of already impressive mods to bring Resident Evil 7 Biohazard and Resident Evil Village to PCVR, with full 6DOF.

Rather than the flatscreen experience, Praydog has integrated full 6DOF VR support for each game, full VRIK (so you're no longer a pair of floating hands), and motion controller support. Motion controller support is still a work in progress according to the mods Github page, but as it stands, the new controls already work to make the experience even more immersive.

These motion controls now allow players of Resident Evil 7 and Village to use their hands freely in their gameplay. You can go about waving your arms wildly in front of your own face, or anyone elses, to your hearts content. This also amplifies how immersive combat can be, so fleeing from Lycans is going to be all the more chaotic.

Upgrade patches coming for three Resident Evil masterpieces

Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3 and Resident Evil 7 biohazard return in 2022 with cutting–edge features including ray tracing, high frame rate and 3D audio for an enhanced gameplay experience(*).

Existing owners of these titles will receive an upgrade patch at no additional cost.

Stay tuned for more informaton in the future.

* No new gameplay content will be added.

Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7 all get free ray tracing updates

Capcom has just announced next-gen versions of its last few Resident Evil games, and as usual for those of us playing on PC, that means we get to enjoy the upgrades via free patches. Resident Evil 7, the Resident Evil 2 remake, and the Resident Evil 3 remake will all get ported to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S this year, and we'll be getting a patch on PC, too.


The next-gen patches for all three games will add "cutting-edge features including ray tracing, high frame rate and 3D audio", Capcom says in a press release. The updates will arrive "later this year", and existing owners on PlayStation and Xbox will get upgraded to the next-gen version for free. The PC patch will arrive at the same time, as a free download for all players.


Capcom implemented ray tracing for the most recent entry in the series, Resident Evil Village, which also launched on the new consoles last year. Since the older games still run on the same RE Engine, it's not too surprising to see these features implemented there - but it's a nice little bonus, regardless.
