If there’s any common reason that ambitious VR games frequently wind up disappointing, restrictiv e budgets would be to blame
The original PSVR has a great catalogue of games, but keeping the set-up working well can be a pain.
Thirdverse, the Japan-based VR studio behind Swords of Gargantua, Altair Breaker, and X8, announced that its VR multiplayer JRPG SOUL COVENANT is coming to all major headsets next month. Developed by the core team behind SOUL SACRIFICE (2013), players are thrust into a post-apocalyptic Tokyo in the franchise’s first VR expansion.
In a very recent development, Capcom has announced that the VR mode for the “Resident Evil 4” remake is scheduled to be added on the 8th of December as an update and will support the full main story campaign, offering an unprecedented gaming experience to its users. However, RE Series fans have another reason to rejoice as there is a possibility that RE Series might get a VR Version in the future.
This I would welcomed, haven’t replayed any of the older games since released years ago. VR would definitely get me to replay them all again. Make it happen Capcom.
You can already play RE 2-3-7-8 on PC via VR mods (Praydog) they offer hand-tracking movement (like PSVR2 Village) and full VR cutscenes.
THE RE7 mod is better compared to the old PSVR version due to hand tracking.

"Modding != Official Support"
And?
You can still play it in VR and worse it shows that this is far from a complicated feat requiring a full studio with tons of money since it's been done by 1 guy working on this mod from time to time.
So basically this could have been done by Capom a long time ago.
And again You should try (it's pretty easy to install) for Res7 for It's improved even on the PSVR version of the game.
Spencer Mansion in VR would be AMAZING. That is my favorite video game setting of all time.
With anything new, it's okay to be conservative up to a point. It's up to the publishers to take risks.
Capcom did that with Resident Evil 7 and I don't think it's a low budget game. It shows off its prowess in VR very well indeed.
