Step 1: To start off, you’ll first need to connect your VR headset to your PC.

Depending on what VR headset you have, the process will differ.

If you have a Meta Quest 2, then you’ll need either an Oculus Link cable or you’ll need to connect it to your PC via Oculus Air Link. Oculus Air Link is a software by Oculus that allows you to wirelessly connect the headset to your PC.

Headsets like the HTC Vive Pro 2 and Valve Index can connect to your PC with the help of SteamVR which is Valve’s VR software. You can get it for free by downloading and installing it through Steam.

If you have some other VR headset, you can easily look up its instructions online or through an instruction manual that you might get with it. Follow the instructions provided to connect the VR headset to your PC.

Pro tip: If you’re trying to connect your VR headset to your PC wirelessly but are having issues, check to see if both of them are on the same wifi network.

If they’re not on the same wifi network, that might be the reason you’re having issues.

Step 3: Install all the VR titles on the Roblox platform that you’d like to play.

We’ll list some great VR games available on Roblox later on in this post for you to choose from.

Step 4: Once you try to launch any of the VR titles that you installed, you’ll be asked to provide certain permissions to your VR headset and PC.

You can provide these permissions by clicking on the “Allow” button. It’s important to provide these permissions so that your VR headset can perform appropriately and there are no compatibility issues.

Step 5: Once you launch a VR title through Roblox, it should launch in VR mode.

Check your VR headset and ensure that it has indeed launched in VR mode.

If it’s not running in VR mode, then that probably means that VR mode is turned off in Settings.

To turn it on, press the Escape button and go to your Settings.

Within Settings, toggle VR to On.
