Patch: VR

The VR patch allows you to play MachineCraft using any SteamVR compatible VR headset, such as an HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, or Mixed Reality. Currently, you can play in "Seated Mode", which allows you to use your mouse and keyboard to play the game, while viewing it in VR.

Warning

Do not use this patch if you are sensitive to flashing lights, or get motion sickness easily.
