But... WHY?

It's winter in Australia, iPhone owners need to keep their hands warm.

I played through a lot of Death Stranding on my iPhone and it was a surprisingly good experience. Now that you can connect any controller (PS5/Xbox/Switch) to iOS devices, I’m all for them porting over real games.

I hope it launches at 50% off like Death Stranding did. That was an awesome deal.

Make a PSVR2 version while you are at it.

Apple M chips and iPhones getting all the REs. Cool to see.

But... WHY?

The question is actually "why not?" - especially for Capcom who has experience porting their other games. I'm not a dev but it wouldn't surprise me if RE Engine lends itself well to GPTK, and Apple is releasing GPTK2 soon. Little extra effort and they get access to an entire platform (millions of iOS/Mac users) and younger demographic.

I’ve played RE 8 and RE4 R on my Mac Studio. Very good ports.

What about my tesla??

Don't game and drive kids.

 

[Roni]

But... WHY?

For Mac? Who knows, probably consequential to the iPhone/iPad port. For iPhone/iPad? Because mobile gamers outnumber console gamers.

Do we have any details on when Sony's money hat for the VR version expires?

Until Quest VR stop money hatting, its....

Until Quest VR stop money hatting, its....

... what are you talking about? Resident Evil 7 launched with PSVR support three years before Meta's Quest 2 launched and Meta started nabbing third party exclusives. Given we're now some seven years since RE7 released and its PC version still doesn't have official VR support, it feels like a pretty valid question to ask: when does Sony's money hat run out?

Hopefully it will come to AppleTV.
