Exciting news for VR enthusiasts! The well-known streaming software ALVR has recently announced its official launch on the Apple Vision Pro headset.

One of the major challenges of playing SteamVR games on the Apple Vision Pro headset is the issue of controller compatibility. Unlike some other VR headsets, Apple has not provided controllers specifically designed for the Vision Pro. In official promotional videos, it's shown that players need to use a PS5 DualShock controller to navigate and play games. Therefore, players will need to additionally equip themselves with VR controllers from other brands to fully enjoy SteamVR games on the Vision Pro headset.

While the process may require some extra effort, the ability to stream SteamVR games to the Apple Vision Pro headset opens up a world of possibilities for users. It allows them to access a wide range of immersive VR experiences and enjoy their favorite games in a whole new way. As technology continues to evolve, we can expect further improvements and enhancements to make the VR gaming experience on the Vision Pro even more seamless and enjoyable for users.
