Definitely one of my favorite VR games. I play it wirelessly using my Quest 2 with Virtual Desktop and VD Streamer. There are also lots of great free mods people have made to continue the enjoyment after you've beaten the main game.

No need for a link cable, just use AirLink, works great as long as you have a decent 5 Ghz router https://support.oculus.com/airlink/

If you have something like a 1070 or above you will be good. Also this game looks good even on lower settings. If you have a vr headset and a somewhat capable gfx card jump on this. Cheapest I've ever seen it.

My laptop has a 2070 and my desktop has a 1070.

I know you said 1070 but would this 1030 be able to swing it? I am kinda limited with a small form factor htpc... https://www.newegg.com/msi-geforc...575FSK5054

No, you're not gonna be able to reasonably play it. VR requires a pretty high frame rate and resolution.

Quote from zdiddy987 :
Can I play this with the Quest 2 and a decent PC or do I need some super video card?
Depends on what you consider a super video card, but it looks like a GTX 1060 is the minimum video card recommended [gamespot.com]

Quote from Pitmaster_Privilege :
This is VR only?


It is, but there are mods to make this game playable without VR. I haven't personally tried any of them, but I'm sure the experience will greatly be affected regardless.

I'm scared of playing that one level. Can someone who's finished it tell me if it's really that scary?

Great game... also the most expensive game I've ever bought as I put my fist through my 32" monitor while "fighting" Jeff.

I am the cautionary tale.

Highly recommended. (give yourself some playroom)

Kids are getting a Quest 2 for Christmas. My boy has been watching videos of this game. Perfect timing.

Wow, this looks awesome. Can't wait to try it out when the Oculus VR 2 arrives.

Ran across this free community made mod called Portal Stories: VR [steampowered.com] that looks cool too. It required Portal 2 [steampowered.com] btw.

By far the best VR game I've ever played. Worth it at $60
