Previously called Meta Quest Plus, Meta Horizon Plus is a subscription service that gives you two free VR games every month. The service operates similarly to what we’ve come to expect from PlayStation Plus, meaning you can add games to your library over time and have access to them as long as you have a running subscription.

Meta Horizon Plus costs $7.99 per month or $59.99 for the year. It’s worth opting for the annual subscription as you can save 37% compared to paying monthly.

On the face of it, yes. Like the PS Plus free games PlayStation gamers enjoy and Xbox Game Pass, the value proposition is very tempting but there are a couple of factors to consider. Some months may include games you’ve already bought, making your monthly spending seem like a waste. The cost of each game given away will also vary. However, it’s more than likely that more than $59.99 of VR games will be given away in the 12 months, so the value is certainly there.

You can sign up for Meta Horizon Plus and enjoy free games on the Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest Pro, Meta Quest 3S and the Meta Quest 3 headset. It’s only available on the Meta Quest Store, too.

Walmart: Meta Quest 3S

Best Buy: Meta Quest 3S

Amazon: Meta Quest 3S

Yes, as long as you have an active Meta Horizon Plus subscription. If your membership expires, you’ll need to sign back up to play the games you currently downloaded. You’ll only be able to play the games you redeemed during your subscription as well, so don’t expect access to everything you may have missed.
