Only if the game is cross buy from oculus, for example, beatsaber the game is not a cross buy, but the expansions pack is
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Most will need repurchase. There are some though, but don’t expect publishers to tweak for weaker system for free.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can use a free program called ALVR to stream your PCVR games to the Quest headset as an alternative to actually playing them on the Quest. There are caveats to this, but it is a valid option.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Only if the developers support cross-buy. There are articles online that outline cross-buy titles available on the Quest.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes they can be played but you will have to get a compatible cable for oculus link (oculus have a official cable coming out) most have had good luck with the partylink cable from amazon
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not natively stand alone. Unless the games are Cross by and there is and I can Quest Port of that particular game. Since you have a VR ready computer though. You can make use of alvr virtual desktop or on of the other VR streaming solutions and stream the VR content from your PC to your quest wireless assuming you have a good enough Wi-fi router. ideally you want your PC connected directly to your router via Ethernet and ideally the router needs to be an 802.11n ac or better
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not all. Some developers will provide for cross play for some games. Otherwise you’ll have to buy one for each system.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. The quest has it's own games store. Not all games in rift store are available in Quest store. Also, they require you to re-purchase them if you want them on this platform.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. I think only if you have downloaded them from the app itself on the pc. More games are coming though and steam VR may be added.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Nope, gotta buy them again for the quest. It sucks, but makes sense when considering that it's a lot of work to port games to the quest
