RE7 VR on PC announcement should be the least of any RE fan worries
Where the fuck is the remake?

Wow, I already thought it was on the PC from launch.
I recently bought psvr and I'm doing my second play through in VR and it's a million times better.
I really hope PC gets it soon, you'll love it.

It released Jan 24th 2017 and had a one year PS4 exclusivity. Very likely, they aren't allowed to talk about any other VR version yet.
I'd be surprised if it never comes over to the PC, but I'd also speculate that Sony would have something like a 12-18 month window where RE7 VR was PS4 exclusive.

wasn't aware of the exact date, thanks. that explains it i hope ...
Though I'm not sure if there will be news at that exact date or a couple days later.
It would be awesome if this is what the big tease is about. Good on so many levels.
If you have VR for PC and this gets announced for it - it's fugging worth it.
Makes me want to get an HTC Vive just for this game.

From what I've seen, most people think it's related to a RE2 remake. But as always, we just need to be a bit more patient and keep waiting.
It would be amazing if they reveal that they added touch controls to RE7, but I highly doubt it. Still, that's my secret hope.
I still secretly hope this too. I'm 100 percent convinced it's going to cost money and not be a free upgrade and this will be the easiest way to get good pub out of a standalone release.
I bought RE7 on a sale just to be ready for a VR release. If they add touch controls, I would buy it again for full price and not even be mad.
But as I said, I highly doubt that they invested the resources. I mean, it's still Capcom.
The steam numbers don't set the world on fire (over half a million according to steamspy while the overall sales number should be around 4.3 million). But they already have a running VR version and only need to port it to the other headsets, which shouldn't be that much work. That's why it would still make sense to release a PCVR version even if they probably won't sell more than a hundred thousand copies.
Yea it will come eventually. Tons of hungry VR owners on PC that would pick it up. You'll probably start hearing about it once Monster Hunter Worlds is out.
Yeah, I really would have thought we would have heard something considering the timing of those tweets. There's still hope though, you never know.
This is one of my least favorite things about exclusive deals with console platforms in particular: they can hamstring content for a generally separate marketplace. The PSVR deal makes perfect sense, but it's such an arbitrary cut out of the body of more substantive VR games for PC headsets.

Yeah. I haven't bought RE7 cause I've been waiting for it to hit PCVR but uh.... I don't think that's going to happen.
According to this article "At the moment, we have no plans regarding systems other than PlayStation VR."
Not gonna lie, this infuriates me. Don't fucking say "Year long exclusive" if you never plan on going to other systems. Just tell us to fuck off and be on your fuckin' way.

Soon hopefully. I started the game on the ps4 a year ago but after realizing the potienal on Vive, I stopped playing hoping for a PC version. Haven't bought it yet also for fear that there will be a vr version that is seperate.
Look at Capcoms history, they'll eventually release it and re-release again for every capable VR headset known to mankind.
Aw now I can't wait for this.
I haven't had the chance to play this in VR yet :(
That arcticle was from 14th Dec 2017. Maybe they are/were under nda for a certain time.
"At the moment, we have no plans regarding systems other than PlayStation VR."
I'm still hoping we see something for like e3 or something.
It's one of the rare third-party AAA ranked in the Microsoft program "Play Anywhere".
This could explain that.
True. But I don't hold out much hope either. That's still barely a month away from the year mark.
Either way, I can't be the only one who hasn't picked it up yet because of this. "Poor sales" is no excuse when they used the VR to drive sales of the PS version. They could easily drive more PC sales by announcing VR on PC.
I didn't pay much attention before , but did Capcom before said they will release it on other platforms or it was a fan guess based on the 1 Year exclusivity printed on RE7 PS4 Cover ?
I mean even Fallout 4 VR "only" sold little over 100k on Steam, it's not like VR games are setting the world on fire. Don't know if Capcom will bother.
I get it, but vr functionality has already been implemented and they have a pc version already. Even if they sold the same amount as fallout4 which is still going for $60 that would leave $6 million on the table for little work at all.
But there is already a VR version, so in this case it would not much hassle to just transfer to PC. It is not like they are building it from the ground
I really wanted to play this in VR on my PC. I bought the game a few weeks ago with the expectation that a VR patch might be coming soon. I guess it is not in the short term as it likely would have been announced. I guess I should go on and start playing RE 7 in HD :(.
