PlutoSphere

PlutoSphere is an app for streaming PC VR games to your headset, from Pluto VR. It sits in the media and video category and is listed by the store under computer link apps. It was released on the Meta Horizon Store on October 17, 2023.

What you can do

PlutoSphere does one job: it takes PC VR games running on a computer at home and streams them to your Quest over your local network. The game itself runs on the PC, while the headset displays it and sends back your movements and controller input. This lets you play titles built for PC VR headsets on a standalone Quest without a cable.

The store description is a single sentence and does not go into settings, supported PC software or system requirements. Based on what it does say, keep these points in mind:

• You need a computer able to run PC VR games.
• The computer and the headset must be on the same local network.
• Streaming happens locally, and the store lists no internet requirement.
• Play uses controllers.

How smooth the stream feels will depend on your own home network and PC, so it is worth checking the developer's documentation before you rely on it for demanding games.

Comfort

Meta has not given PlutoSphere a comfort rating, since comfort depends on the PC game you stream. It supports sitting, standing and room-scale use.
