Valve brings native Steam Link app to Apple's Vision Pro

Ars Technica technology

Key Points:

  • Valve is launching Steam Link on Apple’s Vision Pro mixed reality headset, enabling users to stream traditional 2D Steam games wirelessly from a nearby Mac or PC.
  • The app does not support streaming VR games, focusing solely on non-VR titles typically played on monitors or TVs, with no current plans announced for SteamVR compatibility on Vision Pro.
  • Steam Link has previously been available on Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV, allowing controller syncing and local network streaming from various gaming PCs, including Windows and Linux.
  • While third-party tools like ALVR have enabled similar functionality on Vision Pro, Valve’s official Steam Link app offers a more straightforward and reliable streaming experience.
  • Interested users can access the app via Apple’s TestFlight for pre-release testing, with features including streaming up to 4K resolution and adjustable panoramic display curves.
