If you’ve been following the indie horror scene, you’ll know that JanduSoft’s psychological thriller Evil Inside made some serious waves back in 2021. But today marks a massive milestone for the developers and their partners at Bowl of Tentacles. After a long and intense development journey, Evil Inside VR has officially launched, bringing its claustrophobic brand of terror to the PlayStation VR2 and Meta Quest 3.
Check out the launch trailer below to see why you might want to keep the lights on tonight.
Not Just a Port, But a Reimagining
Let’s get one thing straight: this isn’t just the original game with a VR camera slapped on top. JanduSoft and the VR specialists at Bowl of Tentacles have spent the last few years rebuilding the experience from the ground up.
The core story remains—you play as Mark, a teenager trying to contact his deceased mother via a spiritual board—but the way you interact with that world has been completely overhauled.
What’s New in the VR Version?
- Redesigned Puzzles: Forget clicking on objects; the puzzles have been built from scratch for natural, tactile VR interaction.
- Revamped Lighting & Audio: The atmosphere is significantly more oppressive, featuring a new spatial sound system that ensures every floorboard creak sounds like it’s right behind you.
- Total Immersion: Whether you prefer to play standing or seated, the game has been optimised for the unique haptics of the PS VR2 and the high-fidelity lenses of the Quest 3.
“Evil Inside VR is a complete reinterpretation designed specifically for the most immersive medium: virtual reality. Everything has been crafted so players truly feel inside the house and experience the horror firsthand.” — JanduSoft
Face Your Fears
For those who missed the original, Evil Inside puts you in a shifting, hostile home that acts as much of an adversary as the visions haunting you. By gathering fragments of a spiritual board, you’ll uncover the truth behind a tragic family event—if your nerves can hold out long enough.
Evil Inside VR is available right now on the Meta Store and the PlayStation Store for £11.99 / $13.99.
If you’re looking for a fresh reason to dust off your headset and test your heart rate, this is it. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you about the jump scares.
