Oculus/Quest

Do I need to purchase it twice in order to enjoy it "on the go" and with my desktop PC?

My guess is yes.
Why? Because they're two different platforms and even non VR titles don't give out a copy of a game to another platform - they rarely do and if they do, they got a system to make sure that your first account is perma linked to it, so you can't just sell the free copy.

Edit: Just read in another topic that you can simply download the Oculus PC program and install it on your PC. The game should be accessible through your Oculus library

Not sure if they have changed the policy, but I bought the Game on Quest 2 but It also is available on the PC Oculus App.

Give it a try. Download the Oculus software to your PC, connect your quest with your PC and download the game through the Oculus PC library

Yes, Zenith is crossbuy, and will give you the Oculus PC version and the Oculus Quest standalone version if purchased on the Quest storefront. Make sure you do this if you plan to have both.

As for SteamVR, different story, but that's normal.

Oculus PC and quest 2 standalone are connected. You buy once. Play with air link if youre near your pc (Graphics better) or play from the quest 2 on the go. I assume via hotspot.

How is the performance for quest 1? not owning the 2nd generation... scared that the game might lag too much and stuff

not sure if you have seen the comparable videos, but the PC version is a lot higher quality/shadow/texture/grass etc.

I'm a bit confused with the cross-buy thing. I know Steam is seperate and is not cross-buy, but if I buy on Quest store do I get the standalone Quest2 version and also a seperate version in the Oculus PC App (so I can play with link/air link/virtual desktop), and is that PC App version the improved graphics etc the same as the Steam release?

I purchased the Quest 2 version and it gave me both the Quest 2 and Rift versions. So, you can use airlink or link cable to play the pc version on your Quest through the oculus app on PC. The PC version is indeed the improved graphics version. The same that you would play on Steam. Hope that helps.

It certainly does, and that's made my mind up :) thank you so much for the clear explanation!!

Is this standard for games/apps bought on Quest 2 store?

A lot of Quest games are "cross buy", but I don't think all of them are.
EG, list of games that worked for me
- Audio Trip
- Accounting+
- After the Fall
- Eleven Table Tennis VR
- Gun Club VR
- Population One
- Vader Immortal
- Zenith
Games that don't seem to be "cross buy"
- Beat Saber
- Gorn
- Onward
- Space Pirate Trainer
- Superhot VR

I updated the list via edit, because apparently I haven't clicked the "get" button on the oculus store for all my eligible titles. Apparently there's no library sync as they don't expect everyone to cross buy?
