(URP) varies by URP package version. This page details compatibility between XR features in Unity 2022.3 and the latest compatible URP version.

To determine which version of URP is compatible with your current Unity version, refer to the Requirements and compatibility page in the Universal Render Pipeline documentation.

features in the Universal Render Pipeline:

Feature Supported in XR
Post-processingA process that improves product visuals by applying filters and effects before the image appears on screen. You can use post-processing effects to simulate physical camera and film properties, for example Bloom and Depth of Field. More info post processing, postprocessing, postprocess

Yes
Post-processing effects: MotionBlur Yes
Post-processing effects: Lens Distortion No
Post-processing effects: Depth of FieldA post-processing effect that simulates the focus properties of a camera lens. More info
