The Meta Quest 3 launches soon and, with it, will come a fresh realism paradigm shift for VR games. At the forefront of that is a new technology called Inside-Out Body Tracking.
How’s that whole metaverse thing going? Well, according to one top analyst’s sales expectations for the Quest 3 mixed reality headset, not as well as Meta might hope.
Meta had ambitions to develop its own custom silicon and operating system for Quest headsets, but that now looks increasingly unlikely.
Yes, the Quest 3 just came out. No, it's not too early to think about how the next Quest 4, Quest Lite, or Quest Pro can top the current-gen headset.
The Meta Quest 3 preorder period has officially begun, and these incentives are killer.
People love to burn a few calories playing Beat Saber. But for VR headsets to become proper at-home workout tools, you need to do more than punch, swipe, and dance. That's where the Quest 3 and mixed reality come in.
Watching the Meta Quest 3 being announced by Meta made me realize something – the hardware available for virtual, augmented and mixed reality is finally catching up with the big idea pitches everyone had about this concept called the “metaverse” a couple of years ago.
Meta caught flack for the Quest Pro's passthrough quality and the company isn't making the same mistake this time around.
The Quest 2 sold 20 million (and counting) because it was affordable; the Quest 3 is pricier, and people won't know what to do with the headset they already have.
The Quest 3 will have over 100 new or enhanced games between its October 10 launch and the end of 2023.
