Sure, the Steam Deck can technically run VR titles because it's pretty much a portable PC. However, don't expect it to handle the most demanding VR games super smoothly, especially at high settings. It's powerful, but it's not a high-end gaming rig. Also, you'll need to hook it up to a VR headset through a USB-C connection and possibly tinker with settings or use additional software for the best experience.

I've tried running simpler VR games on my Steam Deck, and it's actually not too shabby. You definitely need to adjust your expectations and settings, but for less demanding experiences, it's pretty neat. Just remember, it鈥檚 not replacing your dedicated VR setup any time soon.

Nope, just no. The Steam Deck isn't built for VR. It's like trying to race in a smart car; sure, it moves, but it's not gonna win the Indy 500.
