VRChat released an Android build optimized for the Steam Deck. The update adds OpenXR support to prepare the game for official launch on Valve's handheld platform.
Android APK with OpenXR support enables native gameplay on the handheld device without translation layers.
The company distributed a standalone APK file through its distribution channels. The update allows the game to run directly on the device without needing extra software translation tools.
Steam Deck runs Linux with Proton translation, but this build targets Android directly. The developer confirmed that OpenXR integration handles motion tracking and controller inputs for the device.
VRChat already exists on the Google Play Store in a general mobile version. This new release focuses specifically on the hardware requirements of the Steam Frame variant.
