Hi Gary,

Hope you’re well. It’s Rachele reaching out on behalf of Meta to share the first Meta Quest VR Gaming Newsletter of 2023!

Let’s take a look at some of the latest and upcoming VR game releases on Quest, including a few titles that don’t have release dates yet but are coming to the Quest Store very soon.

Some notable updates includes the #1 VR Battle Royale, POPULATION: ONE going free-to-play and the Meta Quest 2 VR Discovery Bundle. And if you’re attending the Game Developers Conference (GDC) this year, be sure to read on below for information on speaker sessions and demos hosted by Meta Quest.

We also wanted to share that we’re lowering the price of the Meta Quest 2 (256 GB) and Meta Quest Pro to $529.99 CAD and $1,399.99 CAD respectively, which you can purchase from the Meta Quest store.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Rachele
