EA Sports's WRC VR beta update trailer & details (April 30th release)

ArtHands

Thinks buying more servers can fix a bad patch



  • Release as part of version 1.8.0 update (April 30) on Steam/Epic/EA App
  • free update, integrate into the main game (not a separate DLC)
  • Codemasters will be making the VR in-house for the first time (DiRT Rally and DiRT Rally 2.0 VR update were outsourced)
  • It will be a beta release at first, presumably because Codemasters has no experience in VR and will need players feedback, and currently cannot test for a lot of configurations
  • no plan to add VR on console in any capacity
  • No support for 3D tracked controllers
  • Currently do NOT support Meta Air Link
  • Can display 2D render on monitor while playing in VR
  • Support cross-format multiplayer play with non-VR players
  • Photo mode won't be functional in VR at launch (they are investigating ways to implement it into VR)
  • Will have some issues at launch and will be resolved asap

I don't understand why it would be so hard to release this on PS5 when they already bothered to make it run on technically weaker devices.

I know its BETA but this is one of the worst experiences i had in simracing VR on my Quest 3. Terrible performance,shitty graphics,screen tearing,Virtual desktop not fully supported..

Stay away until its fixed,but i kinda doubt it will since its not their priority and generally VR is terrible on Unreal Engine 4..

What a disappointment

Believe me if you played on PCVR you would understand why they didnt release it on PSVR 2..I dont know how much they can improve performance but if it stays like this i doubt they will ever support it on PS5
