The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition isn’t quite what you would expect

Meta Quest 3 Header

There has never been an Xbox VR headset so the reveal of the Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition might have you thinking that has changed, but that is not the case. The pack includes three months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate so you will be able to play Xbox games, but as there are no native VR games for Xbox you will only be able to play non-VR games on a very big virtual screen.

“For the first time, we’re thrilled to deliver a Quest headset that not only delivers incredible mixed reality experiences but is also crafted for Xbox fans,” comments Lori Wright, Corporate Vice President, Gaming Partnerships and Business Development. “The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition is available today for $399.99 USD, and it comes loaded with everything you need to start gaming on a massive virtual display the moment you open the box.”

The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition bundle includes:

  • Custom 128GB Meta Quest 3S in Xbox Carbon Black and Velocity Green
  • Matching Touch Plus controllers and a limited-edition Xbox Wireless Controller
  • Elite Strap
  • 3 months of Meta Horizon+
  • 3 months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate

“Using the Xbox app on Quest, players can instantly access hundreds of games directly with Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta), including South of Midnight, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, Avowed, and more as part of their Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership.,” adds Lori. “Game Pass Ultimate members can also stream select cloud-playable games they own, even if they are not included with Game Pass Ultimate. You can find the full list with over 100 supported titles in the Stream Your Own Game collection here.”

The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition will be available at  meta.com, Best Buy (USA), Argos (UK), and EE (UK), but quantities are extremely limited. I have checked and despite Microsoft saying they are available now neither Argos or EE is listing the pack.
