Meta May Rebrand $7.99 Horizon+ as Meta VR+, Adding 3D Movies

3 articles · Updated · 9to5Google · Nov 9

Summary

  • Meta is rumored to rename Horizon+ to Meta VR+ after a leaked screenshot showed 3D movies listed under a service name that does not currently exist.
  • The shift would expand the $7.99-a-month subscription beyond its 100-plus games, though it remains unclear whether movies would be included at the same price or in new tiers.
  • Big-name 3D films could help boost the appeal of Meta’s upcoming $1,300 VR glasses while still working on existing Quest 3 headsets; Horizon+ already bundles basic Xbox Game Pass cloud access.
  • The reported rebrand fits Meta’s broader move away from the Horizon label after a Reality Labs reset earlier this year, including cutting in-house VR studios and separating Horizon from its headsets.
