It’s not certain when the VR mode is coming to PC, although what is certain: it’s not coming to PSVR 2.
Here’s what WRC’s Steam page says:
“Exclusive to PC. Feel the pure adrenaline of rally from the driver’s seat. Coming Post-launch.”
The studio also released the game’s initial reveal trailer, showing off some of the ability to design and drive your dream rally car thanks to the inclusion of Builder mode.
Codemasters says WRC also lets you “race and overcome recent events alongside real-world highlights and nostalgic throwbacks in Moments mode, or battle the elements across dirt, snow, and asphalt in the pursuit of the perfect run.”
