Meta’s Latest VR Headset

In September, Meta released the Quest 3 VR headset, describing it as a technically superior version of the older Quest 2 device. The Quest 3 starts at $499, which is $200 more than the Quest 2 but $500 less than the high-end Quest Pro.

Meta’s VR Subscription Service

In June, Meta launched a $7.99 per month VR subscription service for Quest headset owners. The service provides access to two new VR games each month. It works with the Quest 2, Quest Pro, and new Quest 3 headsets.

Competition from Apple

Developers say Apple‘s upcoming entry into the VR market with its own headset could push the industry into the mainstream. Apple’s Vision Pro mixed reality headset will cost $3,499 when it debuts next year. In contrast, Meta is positioning its Quest headsets as more affordable VR options.

The Road Ahead

While the metaverse market remains early stage, Meta continues to invest billions quarterly into making its vision a reality. The company faces stiff competition from major players like Apple, but is counting on affordable VR devices like Quest to drive adoption. Time will tell if virtual worlds become the next frontier.
