“We are really excited to be bringing VR to EA Sports WRC”, says Creative Director, Matthew Battison, “With VR, players will be able to experience rallying directly through the driver’s eyes and immerse themselves fully in the challenging experience that the WRC offers. They will be able to feel the adrenaline as they reach incredible speeds and tackle gravity-defying jumps in the unforgiving asphalt, gravel, and snow stages, while soaking in the highly detailed environments of the 18 game locations.”

According to the FAQ, VR support will be exclusive to the PC version with no plans for the PlayStation VR, PlayStation VR2 or Apple Vision Pro. Here’s a list of compatible headsets that will be supported:

  • – Meta Quest 3
  • – Meta Quest 2
  • – Meta Quest Pro
  • – Valve Index
  • – Oculus Rift S
  • – Oculus CV1
  • – HTC Vive

Partial support will be provided for the HTC Vive Cosmos and HTC Vive Pro 2. All other headsets that are not specified might work but the team cannot guarantee complete functionality at launch.
