Meta could be exploring a Quest game subscription service

Meta could be considering launching a subscription service for Quest games and apps.

Twitter user @ShinyQuagsire claimed this week to have uncovered references to a ‘Quest Pass’ subscription service via the Meta Quest app on Android.

While VGC hasn’t been able to access it, another user claimed the hidden page was also available via the iOS app.

If legitimate, Quest Pass could work similarly to Microsoft’s Xbox Live Games with Gold and Sony’s PlayStation Plus subscription offerings.

“Get up to two new apps or games every month with [Project Apollo],” a description of the service reportedly reads. “Log in each month to redeem your apps, and grow your library with the most exciting VR titles.”

It adds: “Redeem your apps by the end of the month, and keep your apps as long as you are subscribed.”

VGC has contacted Meta for comment on this report.

The company claimed last week to have sold almost 20 million Quest headsets since the platform launched in 2019.
