“It took quite some time, energy and resources to prepare a well-known and widely (maybe even wildly!) liked game for a totally new platform,” reads a message from a Superhot representative. While Beat Saber is essentially the same game across systems ( though its level editor is PC only), Superhot is a more immersive title on Oculus Quest with the wireless freedom of 360-degree movement. Second, we think it would be unfair for Oculus users who bought the game on Steam.” According to Beat Games, the reason for not supporting the feature is that “it is a new platform and porting the game took a significant amount of time and resources. It takes considerable effort and development resources for developers who built PC versions of their games to port it to the new Android-based system. Oculus Quest is a completely standalone VR console which doesn’t require a phone or PC to operate.
Beat Games clarified in a tweet that cross-buy will be supported for downloadable content “Music Packs” purchased through the Oculus Store.Īnyway, players who purchased or will purchase upcoming Beat Saber Music Packs through Oculus Store will have all their packs available as cross buy on Oculus Store. Developer Choicesīut Polyarc, Beat Games and the developers of Superhot say they won’t support the feature for their base games. If you already own Apex Construct on Rift, for example, it should be waiting in your library on Oculus Quest when it arrives on May 21.
Some other developers, like Fast Travel Games, are supporting the feature on Facebook’s Oculus Store which will award owners of both Oculus Quest and Oculus Rift headsets with the game across both systems if purchased for one of them. The developers behind three of VR’s most popular titles coming to Facebook’s Oculus Quest standalone VR system are saying they won’t support cross-buy between versions of their games sold through the Oculus Store.
