With its rebrand in November last year, Meta has doubled down on metaverse and VR. It recently announced upgrades to its VR platform, Horizon Worlds, and opened a physical store for users to demo the headsets.
Meta said the 128-gigabyte and 256-gigabyte versions of Quest 2 will retail for $399.99 and $499.99, respectively. It also bumped prices for some accessories and refurbished units.
“We’re making a change that will help us continue to invest for the long term and keep driving the VR industry forward,” Meta said in a statement, adding that users have spent over $1 billion on Meta Quest apps.
Meta said it will launch a new high-end VR headset, code-named Project Cambria, later this year, without mentioning a date or device specifications.
Meanwhile, Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) is said to be working on its own VR headset, according to reports. (https://reut.rs/3baXvJJ)
