## What it is
Revive is a compatibility layer that translates between the Oculus SDK and OpenVR/OpenXR, letting users play Oculus Rift-exclusive VR games on HTC Vive or Valve Index headsets. It installs as a SteamVR dashboard tab and ships with an installer.

## Use cases
- play Oculus-exclusive games on HTC Vive
- run Rift games on Valve Index
- VR compatibility layer between Oculus SDK and OpenVR
- launch Oculus store titles through SteamVR
- check which VR games work on non-Oculus headsets

## When to choose
- you own a Vive or Index and want to play Oculus Rift exclusives
- you already have SteamVR set up and need Oculus game support

## When to avoid
- you own an Oculus headset and can run games natively
- you need guaranteed compatibility - check the wiki list first, many games have issues
- you use Quest standalone titles rather than Rift PC games
