Plex VR app now available for Oculus and Gear VR
June 19, 2025
You know all that legitimate, totally-paid-for, and absolutely, 100% legal media content you have on your PC? If you’re not usingPlexto organize that media and stream it on every device you own, you’re seriously missing out.
What’s more, Plex also offersPlex VR, an app that lets you browse and view your media within a VR environment. It used to be available only on theGoogle Daydreamplatform, but today it’s officially expanded to bothOculusandGear VR.
Using the Plex VR app, you can simulate either a high-rise apartment or drive-in movie theatre environment. You can browse your media, change settings, and obviously watch your media, all within the VR world. You don’t even need the optional controller; you can do everything with just the traditional headset.
Unfortunately, Watch Together – the feature that lets you and your friends watch media at the same time no matter where you are in the world – is not yet supported on Oculus and Gear VR. However, Plex promises that the feature will come soon.
Plex is entirely free to use, but there isPlex Passthat gives you access to advanced features. However, the Plex VR app is free and does not need a Plex Pass to function to its full level.
