Meta Quest saw its biggest year yet in 2025 for unique users, with leadership arguing that talk of VR's demise is overblown.

In 2025, in-app purchases rose by over 10 percent and Horizon Store revenue edged up despite no new headset launch.

Meta says it remains deeply committed to VR hardware development, with large ongoing investments even as specifics for future headsets aren’t disclosed.

Horizon+ has reached one million subscribers by 2026, continuing to add claimable titles from its curated VR library each month.

Industry chatter suggests the next headset could diverge from Quest 3, potentially using a separate enclosure for processor and internals, signaling ongoing hardware evolution.

During a GDC presentation, Meta reaffirmed its commitment to the Meta Quest platform and pushed back against the decline narrative surrounding VR.

In 2025, more than 100 VR titles earned over one million dollars in gross revenue, with developers also seeing double-digit growth in subscription earnings.
