It&#8217;s notable in that it allows you to play Quest exclusives in 4K (per eye) and high frames per second using the full power of your gaming PC. <\/p>\n<p>While early versions of the program yielded pretty terrible results, recent updates have enabled 4K per eye rendering at 120 FPS, as demonstrated in a recent social media post from AXRB&#8217;s developer, which shows Pinball FX VR running at said specs.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Here is me playing a bit of <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/zen_studios?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&amp;ref=uploadvr.com\" rel=\"nofollow\">@zen_studios<\/a> Pinball FX VR (the Quest one, not classic!) through my Android XR Bridge on Windows.

It operates like a traditional emulator to remove hardware restrictions, after which the game runs on OpenXR. You must own legal game files to play them. <\/p>\n<p>AXRB&#8217;s Early Access launch, which was originally planned for Monday, September 21, has been delayed. AXRB&#8217;s developer announced today via <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7fte81V8YB?ref=uploadvr.com\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow\">the app&#8217;s Discord<\/a> that the delay stems from issues with the installer failing, the emulator failing to launch games, and a lack of overall game support leading to &#8220;a lot of the untested games fail[ing] most of the time.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, AXRB represents an interesting possibility: that PC VR users may soon be able to access Meta&#8217;s Quest library of exclusives and run them on a PC with very little (or no) modification to the original Android-based builds. <\/p>\n<p>    <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meta Quest exclusives like Batman: Arkham Shadow, Deadpool VR, and Asgard&#8217;s Wrath 2 are playable on PC VR&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":857352,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[44],"tags":[74,179,509,180],"class_list":["post-857351","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-virtual-reality","tag-technology","tag-virtual-reality","tag-virtualreality","tag-vr"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857351","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=857351"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857351\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/857352"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=857351"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=857351"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=857351"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
