In a recent interview with Metro, Criterion’s Matt Webster and John Stanley confirmed that Battlefront 2 will not include any VR support: this is pretty disappointing, as their team developed an excellent X-Wing VR mission for the original Battlefront on PlayStation VR late last year. While a surprise reveal seems slim, Stanley says that VR is “very important” to Criterion.
Still, earlier in the year Webster did say that VR support for the game was “a story for another day” so there’s still a thin thread of hope that some sort of integration will find its way into the game eventually. Don’t forget Sony also stuck a PSVR banner on the game’s icon on the PlayStation Store, though this was apparently an accident. Battlefront 2 is releasing on November 17th on PC, PS4 and Xbox One, and we’re still excited to play it even if it won’t be inside a headset.
