I don't see any mention of VR. I wonder if they will support plugging in a Valve Index. Seems like it should be possible through the dock. Oculus headsets wouldn't work though, since they don't support Linux. Unless you can install Windows on this thing somehow... Edit: Yes you can install Windows: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/steamdeck/faq https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/steamdeck/faq This might be a good companion for an Oculus Quest headset. $299 for Quest plus $399 for this and you get access to the Steam library of PC VR games in addition to the Quest library.

Not a chance in hell that this runs SteamVR with acceptable performance, though. I'm not convinced that this will work as a VR rig at all.

  they say you can, but good luck to you: IGN: Can I play VR off of it? Pierre-Loup Griffais: I mean, it has all the connectivity. You would need [a lot] to do that, but that's not really what we're optimizing the performance for. IGN: So you can try it, but your mileage may vary. Pierre-Loup Griffais: Yeah.

  This Ryzen is faster than Snapdragon XR2 (855) that's core on Quest2, so there are no reason it can't run VR but is it practical is different story. XR2 is excellent for integrated device, but if it shouldn't integrated, gaming desktop is better rather that this portable machine.

I‘m not sure this delivers enough performance for decent PC level VR but you can install Windows, they say you are free to reinstall whatever OS you want.
