# VR feature set

> Add interactivity to your applications to create virtual reality experiences.

Create immersive virtual reality experiences with Unity's VR feature set. The VR feature set provides a starting point for VR development, installing all relevant packages necessary to add interactivity to your apps.

> **Note:**
>
> This feature set is deprecated. The packages it contains continue to be available individually in the Package Manager.

## Getting started

The Unity VR feature set pre-installs the packages you need for VR development. With [OpenXR](https://www.khronos.org/openxr/), you can simplify your VR development by targeting a wide range of VR devices. Alternatively, develop directly for the [Oculus](https://www.oculus.com/) platform with the Oculus XR Plugin.

Unity directly supports the following VR platforms:

* [Oculus](https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/unity/unity-gs-overview/)
* [Windows Mixed Reality via OpenXR](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/develop/unity/unity-development-wmr-overview)

For more information on how to start developing applications for these platforms in Unity, refer the documentation in the previous list.

If you plan to target Valve’s OpenVR platform, you must download Valve’s [OpenVR Unity XR Plugin](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/unity-xr-plugin) and [SteamVR Unity Plugin](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steamvr_unity_plugin/releases/tag/2.6.0b4) for input.
