When Mark Zuckerberg unveiled the Meta Quest 3 today, he made sure to bring a lot of games along.
The $500 virtual reality headset debuts on October 10, and it will play more than 500 games in the Quest family. On top of that, Meta said there will be 100 titles for the Quest 3, including 50 new games and 50 updated games from the past.
And when it ships in December, Asgard’s Wrath 2 will be available for free to those who purchase the Meta Quest 3. That’s a $60 value. In addition to the entire adventure, players on Quest 3 and Pro headsets will have access to a special mixed reality mode in which Loki’s minions appear from Anomalies that can emerge and open from the walls and ceiling of your room.
Meta said it’s like having a home theater in your headset. You can watch streaming shows and documentaries, which appear larger than life in your room for a cinema-level experience. Feel even more immersed with an increased field of view, or like you’re right alongside friends with co-watching—wherever they are in the world. And you can play games.
Meta is touting fitness applications, which are already being used by millions of people to exercise. There will be titles across cardio, strength training, martial arts and more.
