Virtual reality has evolved a lot over the last decade, and Connect has evolved along with it. Today’s Connect keynote covers a lot of ground, from fitness to social platforms to the future of work. This is what we mean when we say VR is the future of general computing. It will touch so many aspects of our lives.
Gaming was one of the first pillars of VR, and gaming is still what gets a lot of you to put on your Meta Quest 2 headset every day. For some, it’s old favorites like
Beat Saber and
Walkabout Mini Golf. For others, it’s jaw-dropping new adventures like
Moss: Book II,
Red Matter 2, and
BONELAB, games that redefine what’s possible on a mobile headset.
Last month,
BONELAB hit the $1 million mark in less than an hour, setting the record as the fastest-selling app in Meta Quest history—but Stress Level Zero isn’t the only developer seeing success. To date, $1.5 billion has been spent on games and apps in the Meta Quest Store, and roughly one in three titles are making revenue in the millions. Both
Zenith: The Last City and
Resident Evil 4 made over $1 million in under 24 hours, and
Blade & Sorcery: Nomad hit that mark in two days. And
The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners has surpassed $50 million in revenue on Meta Quest alone, nearly double its revenue on all other platforms.
There are plenty more games to come, and today we had the privilege of showing off some of what you’ll be playing in the coming months and years—from the surprise-announcement of
Marvel’s Iron Man VR on Meta Quest 2 to updates on
Among Us VR and
The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners - Chapter 2: Retribution, a brand-new project from
Skydance Interactive, and even…
Xbox Cloud Gaming? Believe it. Read on for details, trailers, and more, below.
