The gaming ecosystem on visionOS continues to grow, this time with the announcement that Steam Link is coming to the platform. The official app will allow users to wirelessly stream games in 2D from Steam on their local Macs and PCs to their Vision Pros. According to the company, the app can stream games at up to 4K resolution and includes an adjustable, curved panoramic view. A TestFlight beta is now available for those who want to test the app before its public release.
Steam’s stature in the PC gaming market cannot be understated, so opening the platform up to the Vision Pro is a huge boon for gaming on the device. Of course, one would hope to see VR streaming support come with time, but official support even for 2D gaming is a big step.
Between an official Steam client, 4K cloud game streaming from NVIDIA GeForce NOW, console remote play via Portal, local OpenVR game streaming with ALVR, HDMI input over UVC via the Developer Strap, and native titles from Apple Arcade and the App Store, the variety of games available for Vision Pro users to play is getting larger by the day. There’s lots to be excited about in the world of visionOS gaming these days.
