Now you can use Word, PowerPoint, and Excel in VR.

Now you can go to your office in VR. Microsoft Office, that is.

Office apps are now available on Meta Quest VR headsets, Android Central reports, so your dreams of using Word, PowerPoint, and Excel in virtual reality have finally come true—about a year after Microsoft and Meta announced plans to bring Microsoft Office, Azure, and Windows 11 to the Meta Quest.

To use the apps, you’ll need a Microsoft account, which you log into on the headset. You’ll also need to download the WordExcel, and PowerPoint apps, though you only need to log into your Microsoft account once to be signed into all three.

While the apps are functional, The Verge notes that they might not be ready for primetime. The versions of the apps that are available within the Quest VR headset appear to be web versions of the apps and run in the cloud, so while they work in VR, they aren’t optimized for VR, so getting work done could be frustrating.

If you want to try them out for yourself, you can snag all three now from the Meta Quest Store for use on the Quest, Quest 2, Quest 3, and Quest Pro.
