−The SteamVR APIs and runtimes provide support for VR [[head mounted displays]] and accessories to a standard desktop computer. SteamVR typically operates from within [[Steam (service)]], but it does not require the service to work at a basic level. Video games can be developed and played with SteamVR without having to access the steam store.
