Meta has officially launched the Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition, marking the company’s first-ever limited edition headset developed in collaboration with Xbox. This release signifies a significant step in bridging the gap between virtual reality and mainstream console gaming.
The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition comes equipped with a 128GB headset finished in the striking Xbox Carbon Black, complemented by Velocity Green accents. Alongside the headset, the bundle includes matching Touch Plus controllers and a limited-edition Xbox Wireless Controller that perfectly mirrors the headset’s aesthetic, featuring Velocity Green highlights on the buttons and sticks. The included controller arrives pre-paired out of the box, allowing for instant setup and seamless gameplay.
Beyond hardware, the bundle provides significant added value with a Meta Quest Elite Strap for enhanced comfort during extended sessions, three months of Meta Horizon+ membership, and three months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. This package offers players the freedom to explore hundreds of games via Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) using the Xbox app on the Quest headset. Titles available include highly anticipated releases like South of Midnight, Avowed, and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.
The headset offers remarkable versatility in controller support. In addition to the included Xbox Wireless Controller, players can connect other devices such as the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 or the Xbox Adaptive Controller via Bluetooth.
Meta has emphasized the seamless cross-play and cross-progression capabilities of this edition. Gamers can start playing on the Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition, pick up where they left off on an Xbox console, and continue again on a PC without losing progress, saves, or achievements.
Importantly, this device provides a complete VR and mixed reality experience while doubling as a portal to Xbox Cloud Gaming, giving players an unprecedented way to access a vast library of titles across screens and platforms.
The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition bundle is now available for purchase at $399.99 through meta.com, Best Buy in the USA, and Argos and EE in the UK. As a limited-edition release, stock is expected to be limited. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.
With this launch, Meta and Xbox have effectively delivered a new kind of hybrid gaming experience that unites console-quality cloud gaming with the immersive world of virtual reality.
