Cyan's Myst is available in VR on the Oculus Quest platform.

Cyan’s original Myst debuts on the Oculus Quest 2

It’s hard to believe that I played the original Myst on a PC with a CD-ROM drive about 27 years ago. And last night, I looked out at Myst Island, only it’s different, as I was playing on an Oculus Quest 2.

The virtual reality remaster of the famous puzzle adventure game comes out on the Oculus Store on December 10 for both the Oculus Quest and the Oculus Quest 2. It’s an accessible game for an accessible platform.
