In a surprising announcement, the developer talks about how the mobile VR version will operate and how users will be able to utilize the application.
You will be able to simply connect to your computer with your Oculus Go, Gear VR or Oculus Quest headset to watch movies, browse the web or play games on a giant virtual screen or in various theater environments. Virtual Desktop is a highly optimized, native application developed for low latency, high quality streaming.
