I was lucky enough to try out a VR setup in iRacing last month a few times.
DIRT 4 PS4 VR PC
Glad the PS4 VR experience seems to be up to scratch compared to PC equivalents. It's terrific and a must for any driving fans with a PSVR headset. Sure, it may still put some people off due to its lack of arcade driving controls and options, but for those seeking a true rally simulation, then the PSVR updates brings it as close to the real thing as humanly possible. Meanwhile, racing online takes that same satisfaction of seeing other human players make human mistakes and amplifies it when you can't help but turn your head a cackle as you speed past. In the Rally Cross mode, checking AI opponents feels so remarkably real it's shocking when you don't feel the collision in real-life. Indeed, PSVR enhances the joy of DiRT Rally considerably.
DIRT 4 PS4 VR DRIVERS
It feels enough like actually driving to allow drivers to channel their real-life experience. However, now it's more realistic and personal skills are more transferable. The slightest mistake can often place the top spots too far to reach, and there's a real grind to purchase new cars, new engineers, not to mention the progress of clawing your way to the podium. That said, it's still a matter of mastering consistently good driving. It's slightly easier too DiRT Rally has quite the notoriety for its difficulty, but tackling it in VR helps you read the tracks and sense the momentum of the car to a far more accurate degree, allowing for a slightly smoother learning curve. When you're behind the wheel, however, with the co-driver calling out the turns to the side, the mud, rain, grit and snow staining the windows, and the sight of the track revealing itself as you speed forwards, that extra depth perception and 3D audio brings the racing to life like never before. It's a much-appreciated alternative to the somewhat hardcore cockpit angle, but at the same time, these other cameras do distract from the immersion a little. It's wonderful.Ĭockpit view isn't the only option either, with multiple other camera angles also available. Instead it provides that extra level of immersion that racing games are crying out for, giving the cockpit view an authenticity that changes the experience to feel a great deal more like you're actually driving a rally car.
Moreover, it works splendidly, with no meaningful compromises to visual fidelity.
DIRT 4 PS4 VR UPDATE
For more on all things Dirt 4 and PlayStation VR, be sure to stick with us at Twinfinite.The PSVR update makes the entire game compatible with the VR headset, allowing every mode to be enjoyed in VR.
That’s all you need to know about the game’s potential PlayStation VR compatibility. All you can do is keep your fingers crossed. It would be good to see because Dirt Rally is excellent in VR and the two-player support that features a fun time-based mini-game makes Dirt Rally an enjoyable multiplayer VR game. Speaking to Road to VR, Codemasters said, “we will monitor how Dirt Rally performs on PSVR and then make decisions from there.” Therefore, there is still a possibility that you will see VR support for Dirt 4 but it may rely on both that and Dirt Rally selling well over the next few months. The update made the game one of the best racing games available for PlayStation VR, using everything the game already did well. However, with Dirt 4 out now, people are asking whether there are plans to add VR compatibility to the game.Īt launch, and for the foreseeable future at least, Dirt 4 cannot be used with PlayStation VR, but Codemasters has not ruled it out for the future. Earlier this year, Codemasters added VR support to their excellent rally game, Dirt Rally.
