"Motion Smoothing also isn't available on the Oculus Rift or Windows Mixed Reality devices" well then that only leaves the HTC Vive. Generally most Steam VR games has the 3 icons "HTC Vive", "Oculus Rift", and "Windows Mixed Reality". If 2 out of the 3 aren't supported with this new VR feature, then that leaves just the Vive. Unless some other new VR headset that connects to the PC has come out that most VR games support that uses a different technology that I'm not aware of.

Just be glad that it's at least coming out (slowly). Most likely all 3 VR platforms will have it. It is a beta afterall. Steam has no reason to waste its efforts if in the end it's only going to support only 1 or 3 platforms. It's development, it takes time.
 


True, but the Oculus Rift has already had ASW 1.0 support for two years. This "motion smoothing" is the same feature.

Oculus is about to launch ASW 2.0, by the way, which gets rid of some of the artifacting you get from ASW 1.0 (and "motion smoothing").
