How to Connect & Cast Oculus Quest 2 to Roku TV

The Oculus Quest 2 has become a beloved VR headset, captivating enthusiasts worldwide with its immersive and thrilling experiences. However, the drawback of limited enjoyment for only one person at a time can be a downside. Fortunately, there is a solution: by connecting your Oculus Quest 2 to a larger screen, such as your Roku TV, you can elevate your VR adventures to new heights and immerse yourself in a visually stunning and captivating experience.

Although the Oculus Quest 2 offers a casting option to share the headset’s screen with others, Roku TVs can present a challenge due to their lack of SmartCast compatibility. You may notice that when attempting to cast from the Quest 2, the Roku TV doesn’t appear as an available option. However, a Quest 2 with firmware version 10 or above may display the Roku TV as an option.

Let’s dive into the details and discover different approaches to linking your Oculus Quest 2 with your Roku TV. This will allow you to enjoy VR on a larger screen and share the thrill with friends, family, or a broader audience.

The selection of a specific method relies entirely on the devices and requirements at hand. Below, we will outline steps for each method, and you can choose the one that best fits your needs. While we have discussed these methods in the context of the Quest 2 and Roku TV, they are also applicable to other TVs and Quest headsets.
