Oculus held its first livestreamed game showcase this week, and it spent a good amount of the 25-minute runtime focused on Resident Evil 4 in VR--a Quest 2 exclusive.

Most notably, the VR port adapts Resident Evil 4's third-person viewpoint to a first-person experience, and a lot of tweaks have had to be made to accommodate for that. Using weapons will be a more physical experience with the Quest 2's motion controls, allowing for finer melee weapon control, dual wielding, and the ability to manually reload firearms--which also adds the threat of fumbling a reload in a tense situation.
