The flatscreen to VR modding community has been working its magic once again, this time with a new mod that brings 6DoF, motion controlled VR to Left 4 Dead 2.
The mod itself is still in early beta but even at this stage of development it’s possible to play through the full campaign (and all the DLC levels) in its entirety.
For this week’s episode of VR Corner, which you can find just below these words, I tested the mod out on one of the most memorable missions from the game, Dark Carnival. It was an excellently gory trip down memory lane, only made better by the fact that I also managed to accidentally summon Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

Developed by a modder named Kem, the l4d2vr mod is still a work in progress, albeit one that seems to be getting regular quality of life updates. For instance, while l4d2vr does have motion controller support with fully mapped controls, you’ll notice in the video above that this has been implemented in a rather um… unique kind of way.
