Resident Evil 4 has been released on about every platform imaginable, thus there was some fear that Resident Evil 4 VR might have a sense of "been there, done that." Resident Evil 4 VR, on the other hand, has received critical acclaim since its release, being lauded as one of the best virtual reality game releases of the year and applauded as a really fresh way to enjoy the iconic game. However, while Resident Evil 4 VR reviews were mostly excellent, the game did get some criticism, specifically for the lack of key game types.

Meta and Capcom haven't given a specific release date for the update, but they have stated that work on The Mercenaries for the VR adaption is already underway. Like all of the other modes in the core Resident Evil games, The Mercenaries twists the horror-action into a more arcade affair, placing you against an endless wave of adversaries that you must survive as the countdown to extraction ticks away.

Some game modes from the earlier version of Resident Evil 4 VR are missing, including the famous Mercenaries mode, in which players aim to kill as many adversaries as possible under a certain time limit. Mercenaries was a popular mode in the original Resident Evil 4 since it allowed fans to jump right into the action without having to replay the entire game, and it seems that this would be especially crucial for the VR version.

Mercenaries were not included in the first release of Resident Evil 4 VR, but they will be added soon. Resident Evil 4 VR will receive a free update from Oculus that will officially introduce The Mercenaries option to the game. It's unclear how large it will be or whether it will include additional playable characters beyond Leon S. Kennedy (the previous mode included Ada, Hunk, Krauser, and Wesker), but fans will find out next year.

Other comfortable features are also being developed for a 2022 update. These will include new features such as hand-based driving, improved left-handed play, and the ability to change Leon's in-game chest and waist height to make inventory management more versatile.

Resident Evil 4 VR has been a huge success for Meta and Capcom, with the title becoming the fastest-selling app on the Oculus Store in Quest history. However, it remains exclusive to Meta's latest standalone headset, with no plans to adapt it to the original Quest.

Resident Evil 4 VR succeeds in bringing the original third-person horror game back to life in a variety of ways, providing old and new fans alike a chance to revisit one of the most influential horror games of all time. "RE4VR is a vital game to have in your Oculus Quest 2 library, right alongside Beat Saber and Superhot," Kurt Indovina wrote in his Resident Evil 4 VR review, praising the game's new gameplay.

Resident Evil 4 VR is now available for Oculus Quest 2 only.
