Resident Evil 4 is the fastest-selling app in the history of Quest

Resident Evil 4 has become the fastest-selling app in the history of Quest, based on gross sales in the first week of launch. So says a blog post on the Oculus - sorry, Meta site. 

That news is somewhat buried as a throwaway comment in the announcement that The Mercenaries mode will be coming to the game as a free update in 2022. This against-the-clock wave mode has been a firm favourite in previous versions of the game.

Further updates will include improvements to accessibility with hand-based steering, improved left-handed controls, height adjustments, and the option to fine-tune the location of chest and waist inventory slots so players can grab grenades from a place that suits them best.

Resident Evil 4 has received a nomination in the Best of VR/AR category at this year's The Game Awards
