VR Systems Supported

[lizon]

Am I to assume that any VR headset that can work with Steam VR will work for this game? Because all of the branding says Oculus but I assume it can work with most everything due to it being advertised as a VR game on Steam. I plan on building a system just to run this game on max settings.

I would like some clarification on this too. I have an Index so I hope the VR is not tied to facebook hardware.

We are targeting Quest Platform and 2D/VR PC platforms for our initial launches.

Oculus Quest is first (non-exclusive), with PC and other VR hardware to follow.

Future platform releases (and the details of what other VR hardware will be supported) will be announced at a later date.

Pretty sure all major headsets will be supported. Obduction supports them all and Cyan has only made improvements to their VR stuff since then.

I hope it will support the Index and hopefully with a faster movement speed than Obduction. Great news to hear this will get VR, by the way.

@lizon If I were you, I'd wait until all the details are clarified. There are so many hardware launches around the corner, it's just not a great time to build a PC for VR gaming right now (yes, more GPUs, more CPUs, and more VR HMDs are coming).

Here is clarification from Cyan:

The Quest Platform version of Myst (VR only) will be released first, with the PC version (2D & support for additional VR hardware) to follow.
We plan to bring it to additional platforms following the Quest Platform & PC releases.
Fully redesigned and created from the ground up using Unreal Engine

Sweet!! Wishlisted and properly hyped! :)

Nice to hear a PC version is coming too since i'm not really interested in mobile VR. Hope it won't be just for Oculus hardware. I do have a Rift S now, but my next VR headset won't be from Oculus.

Oculus Quest is releasing first (non-exclusive), with flatscreen PC and other VR hardware to follow later

When the other VR hardware platforms have been confirmed, we'll be announcing them.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. VR games on Steam tend to work with all PC headsets even when a game does not list certain ones. That's been my experience anyway.

Thanks! I was worried when I saw Oculus is announcing it so much

Heck, I'll take timed oculus exclusive over permanent oculus exclusive any day, as long as I get to use steam and don't need a facebook account or to install oculus home.

I'm really hoping when they do make it for Steam and other VR hardware that they include optimisations for the Valve knuckles controllers. The added immersion of seeing your hands grasp things based on your hand/finger movements and manipulate them would be incredible!!

I remember being there for the original release and have probably bought every version since. To actually "be there" on Myst Island will be like a living dream!!

Will Myst feature 'Crossbuy' on the Oculus Store ? Crossbuy is an Oculus platform perk that gives owners of the game BOTH the QUest and Rift (PC) versions of the game.

I ask as many of us Quest 2 owners benefit from both the standalone version and the PC version (since Quest 2 can connect to a PC to play PCVR games; the Quest 2 is a hybrid VR headset). I'd love to be able to hook my Quest 2 to my gaming PC and replay the game with the higher fidelity graphics once the PC version releases; but I'd only like to purchase 1 copy of the game.

The PC version and other VR hardware versions (TBD/TBA) will follow the Quest release, so there is no information available yet about the game being supported (or not) by "Crossbuy."

If "Crossbuy" becomes a possibility or reality for this title, Cyan will announce it.
