Rec Room

The former Steam listing described Rec Room as a place to chat, hang out, visit player-created rooms, and make and share experiences. It also described avatar customization and the Maker Pen, a building tool for creating objects and worlds. These are useful records of the product's creator and social features, not evidence of a live service today. Official Steam listing.

• Online play ended: the publisher's closure notice sets June 1, 2026 as the date when login and play stop. A historic VR label or an old installation tutorial does not override that status.
• Steam was the PC/VR edition: Steam identified the former PC title as VR Supported and listed SteamVR, but its current page says the product is no longer available on the store. That is PCVR history, not proof of a current Quest-native or console-VR edition.
• Studio is not a replacement live service: Rec Room said its Studio build servers would go offline at shutdown, while the Studio application would continue in a limited offline mode for opening rooms already cached on a local computer.

Rec Room said creators could not download a working copy of a room because it depended on the company's servers. Instead, it provided downloads of underlying room and invention data for possible recreation elsewhere. The announcement said those downloads were available only through the Steam PC build and only until June 1, 2026. The company later explained that its export tools could provide data files, not an operational copy of a room. Because that stated download window has passed, this page does not imply that exports can still be started or recovered now. Shutdown and data notice · Creator-data export instructions.

The shutdown notice also outlined player exports for photos and a final avatar report card. It does not establish that those online download routes remain accessible after Rec.net went offline, so check the official support pages before assuming an old export link still works.
