Those who are participating in the Steam beta on the open-source operating system can now download it on Steam.Also included in the update to the classic shooter is Oculus Rift support. It is still an early version, with many known bugs that Valve is working through, but it has been shipped to Oculus Rift development kit owners.As Valve’s Joe Ludwig states on the Oculus Rift development forums (https://developer.oculusvr.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=957), “This port is a bit more raw than TF2 was when it shipped, so we would appreciate hearing about any bugs you find. Just like in TF2 this mode is experimental, so we really want to hear what you think.”
