VR OWNERS
Do only certain VR systems work for certain games on steam? like is there exclusive games to one system or will i be able to just play any steam VR game? as at some point in the future i would like to buy one and if there is limitations on games it can help me decide on which system would better suit me. (I was planning for the Oculus Rift s)

First VR topics are best in SteamVR sub forum:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/250820/discussions/

Beside that over all almost all games work in all systems that support SteamVR if the game use VR
I think I heard there was like one game that did not,but most to all of them do (from and on Steam)

However, not all of them are optimal for the headset, like not all of them have a fitting controller in the game to what you have outside that can give some issues

if you go to SteamVR hub just point some there are angry on Facebook for making you login to Facebook to use the Oculus store, so just so you know of it :D: but there over all good people can inform you better (as they got more headsets to experience then me, I only got the HTC Vive)
i have a vr headshet

all game is fine
I'm using an old school oculus rift DK1 (released 2013) I can use any VR game long as it accepts gamepad or kb+mouse input as the DK1 never came with or even had any tracked motion controllers. Though i do believe some emulators for controllers exist i just haven't tested it yet. Finding out what games & software use vr is pretty simple to do here let me help you use this link it will filter all games on steam that use oculus rift only. Also you'll need steamVR installed to.

Yes but only about 1 or 2 old titles (such as the original Dirt Rally) out of thousands. Officially those titles only have Oculus (now Facebook) support but you can make them work on any headset with a 3rd party patch called ReVive.

Oculus / Facebook has "exclusive games" (for now) that are on the Oculus store not Steam. Quest games will only work with the Quest headset (a stand alone device you can connect to a PC) but like with the Rift + Rift S titles again, you can use the above work around to varying degrees of success.

And here is where things go into a grey area with a huge red flag attached to it. Facebook / Oculus is ceasing to make the Rift S in 2021 and by 2023 levels of support are at the point Facebook wont make any promises.

https://www.theverge.com/2020/9/16/21422717/facebook-oculus-rift-s-discontinued-quest-2-vr-connect

Facebook are dropping the Rift S / PC VR headsets and software to focus purely on the Quest 2 headset and content for it's respective platform. Now you can connect the Quest 2 to your PC and use it to play PC VR games but thats a feature of the headset, not it's purpose. It's main aim to be a self contained unit (akin to a console I suppose).

On paper that sounds good. You get the best of both worlds.

The reality however is that the only reason the Quest, Quest 2 or any other Oculus headset even works on Steam is because Valve put effort into making it work without any outside help or agreement from Facebook. Even reading the Facebook terms and conditions for Oculus headset states you are not guaranteed access to any services aside from official Oculus / Facebook ones.


In short, Facebook "could" update their platform in the coming years or months that nukes all SteamVR functionality. Facebook really only want users buying and using their content and are doing it a way they can also track and monetise user data. That in itself may not bother you and thats fine but it may cause issues for Valve being able to continue offering support down the road. At the end of the day, Facebook is subsidizing the costs of their headsets (or at least the Quest 2) so being locked into their eco-system is part and parcel of that.

Assuming Facebook wont take such actions and everything will work as you expect is a risk at this point. Facebook has a history of saying one thing and doing another when it comes to VR and is a bit notorious for not playing nicely with other VR manufacturers and VR developers in general.

So again, to stress the point, Facebook is dropping the Rift S in coming months and support becomes a big question mark in 2023. That leaves you only with the option of the Quest 2 from Facebook which has it's own pros and cons attached. There's also some in the air questions about how much data it gathers in Europe (to the point it's not on sale in Germany) so just take that into account as well.


If you want an actual official SteamVR headset (which I honestly would recommend to anyone wanting to play games solely on PC) then your options are :

Valve Index.

Vive Pro

Vive Cosmos Elite

There is also the upcoming HP Reverb 2 which comes from a partnership between Valve, Microsoft and HP.

Outside of the official sphere of SteamVR headsets there are numerous headsets that work and Valve does a great job of supporting them but at the end of the day, the 4 I listed above are the ones either built by Valve OR built in partnership with Valve. Every other headset out there will come with it's own software driver package that may or may not give you a headache.

Officially speaking, only Oculus / Facebook has any sort of hardware locked content that requires Facebook based software installed.. Every other brand of PC VR headset, be it one of the above I listed or other works just fine within the SteamVR/OpenVR space.

"Valve Index." is the best option if you really want to play VR games with full experience
But if you dont care about graphic or fps, the beter option would be hp vr ~ 350-410 usd on amazon. The cheapest vr in market right now

Oh no doubt but even though I love mine, I still hesitate to outrightly recommend it to a first time buyer with little to no hand on time with VR. It's a bit on the expensive side for something the end user might not like as much as they hope.

If you mean the original HP Reverb, yeah it's ok but it's a discontinued model. Plus the controllers and the WinMR platform as it was (or the format that the headset is built around) is obsolete now now that Microsoft has partnered up with Valve.

The headset will still work just fine of course (and it is a good headset) but just seems a bit not worth it to me to spend $400 on something thats now discontinued with a better version about to drop...Plus the Reverb G2 has (on to of the visual upgrade) superior audio and the newer superior controllers as well.

That's one of the reasons i didn't think about the valve headset as when reading about it they put it as a "pro, someone who already has got vr experience" which i do not have. This will be my first vr headset and wouldnt want to go with a system that may be bit to complicated for me

The "Oculus Quest 2" is the cheapest VR headset at the moment at 300 bucks.
And its really, really good for that price with a picture quality close to the Index, a 1000 dollar set.

Thats semi correct, on its own the Quest 2 does not need a PC to play games, it has its own inbuild hardware and you have to buy special game versions for it on the Oculus Store.
BUT, you can buy a connection cable (( around 30 bucks) for the Quest 2 that lets you connect the headset to your PC .
If you do that it acts like any other PC VR headset and uses the PC hardware to run games and also works with Steam VR and such.
