Meta has finally revealed its latest headset, Quest 3S. Although it retains some of Quest 2’s flaws, it creates much needed parity in power and features, all at an unbeatable price.
Metro Awakening is one of the most anticipated VR games launching this year and we finally got a chance to try it for ourselves on Meta’s newly revealed Quest 3S.
On stage at Meta Connect today, CEO Mark Zuckerberg officially unveiled Quest 3S, Meta’s next headset, which aims to appeal to first-timers as well as Quest and Quest 2 owners looking for their first mixed reality device.
After a torrent of leaks, Meta has finally unveiled Quest 3S at Connect today, detailing every reason why it thinks Quest and Quest 2 owners ought to upgrade to the company’s latest and now most affordable mixed reality headset. Here’s the breakdown of Quest 2 vs Quest 3S vs Quest 3:
Say goodbye to the 128GB version of Quest 3, as the company is slated to only offer the 512GB version moving forward, and at a new, more attractive price.
Batman: Arkham Shadow, the upcoming Quest 3 exclusive from Camouflaj, is now officially coming to Quest 3 and Quest 3S on October 22nd.
Meta finally unveiled the long-rumored (and leaked) Quest 3S, but that doesn’t mean we’re getting a torrent of new accessories. While most Quest 3 accessories work with Quest 3S, Meta also announced two new model-exclusive facial interfaces that may turn some heads, and a new controller charging dock too.
Amid the official unveiling of the new $300 Quest 3S today, Meta dropped another bombshell at its Connect developer conference: all new Quest 3 and Quest 3S purchases are getting the much anticipated Batman: Arkham Shadow bundled if they order before early next year.
Polyarc, the studio behind Moss and Moss: Book II, announced both pint-sized VR adventure platformers are getting visual overhauls and a 25% discount—just in time for the launch of Meta’s newly unveiled Quest 3S.
Out with the old, in with the new. Meta announced that the cheap and cheerful Quest 2 and the company’s pricey mixed reality pioneer Quest Pro are officially getting the boot, marking Meta’s next big push to bring mixed reality to the masses.
Meta Connect 2024 is kicking off today, with CEO Mark Zuckerberg just moments away from making what hopes to be a big announcement, possibly even the thoroughly leaked Quest 3S.
The team behind the VR Games Showcase are putting on a new livestreamed games event today focusing on independent developers and studios “both big and small.” Just in time for what will certainly be a rush of XR news!
Meta shut down MARVEL Powers United VR (2018) back in 2021, the online co-op game released exclusively on Oculus Rift by Meta-owned studio Sanzuru Games.
