The American multinational technology conglomerate, Meta Platforms Inc. is all set to launch a new subscription service for its virtual reality headsets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Facebook<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meta Launches New Subscription Service For Virtual Reality Headsets<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same is confirmed by Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Monday, he said that Meta Quest<\/a> will cost $7.99 per month for access to two gaming titles each month on his Instagram channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving to the Meta’s VR subscription, it is available for the Meta Quest 2 and Quest Pro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new subscription service was announced for Quest VR headset users by Mark Zuckerberg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta Quest+ is priced at $7.99 a month which offers free games and additional VR content for its subscribers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides this, Meta will continue to add two new VR games every month starting this August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is noteworthy here that the Meta Quest+ subscription is applicable for Quest 2 and Quest Pro users and also compatible with the upcoming Quest 3. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

People who are interested in owning this can buy a Quest+ subscription from the Meta Quest store starting today (June 26) for $7.99 a month or for $59.99 a year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deal gets better for the first-time subscribers as they can get the Quest+ subscription for just $1 for the first month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the unawares, the Meta Quest series of VR headsets are known for offering an affordable virtual reality experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to deliver an immersive user experience, the company has recently announced the Quest 3 with improved tracking technology. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the speculations, people will see the Quest 3 VR headset on sale starting this fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this launch the Meta Quest+ subscribers will get to enjoy games like Pixel Ripped 1995 and Pistol Whip. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In coming times the company will be adding titles like Walkabout Mini Golf and Mothergunship: Forge in August. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best part is the users get to keep these titles as long as they are subscribers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In case they take a break between subscriptions still they will regain access to all their content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A New Scheme To Make Money<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that the VR subscription is the latest way Meta is trying to make money from its headsets, after disappointing sales. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we know, Meta slashed the prices of its VR headsets by up to 33%, during March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later on, the company lowered the price of its Quest 2 headset a second time in June when the company announced the launch of its Quest 3, which is about to debut in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It seems that Meta is still losing money on its virtual reality ambitions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with, the social media company lost $13.7 billion in its Reality Labs division, the part of the company that makes virtual reality technology last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
