Guys today we have been met by some surprising and somewhat DEVASTATING news that the Meta quest 2 price will be increasing and it will be increasing by a SUBSTANTIAL amount meta also announced they'd be giving away a free game with new purchases. I'm going to be tell you the ins and out of what's going on and why! so stick around to the end because this is will most probably annoy the HELL out of you!
So how much is the price of the quest 2 going to change? Why is it changing and when? and What free game will I get?
So lads to answer this questions we can refer to the oculus.com blog where all the above questions have been answered.
So the blog states
We’ve been all-in on VR since the early days of PC and mobile, all the way through to today’s premium standalone 6DOF headsets—and we’ve invested billions of dollars to help nurture a thriving VR ecosystem. Now, we’re making a change that will help us continue to invest for the long term and keep driving the VR industry forward with best-in-class hardware, action-packed games, and cutting-edge research on the path to truly next-gen devices. Starting in August, Meta Quest 2 will cost $399.99 USD and $499.99 USD for the 128GB and 256GB versions respectively. And for a limited time, every new headset purchase will include an offer to download the popular VR rhythm game Beat Saber at no additional cost.* Alongside these changes, we’ll also increase the prices for Meta Quest 2 accessories and refurbished units.
We have an ambitious VR hardware roadmap, beginning with the launch of our high-end headset, Project Cambria, later this year. And we plan to ship new generations of Meta Quest after that. At Reality Labs Research, we have teams dedicated to advancing the state of the art in VR displays, audio, incredibly lifelike avatars, haptics, wrist-based interfaces, and more. And on the content front, we have a robust line-up of exciting titles coming to Meta Quest 2, including Ghostbusters VR, Among Us VR, The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners - Chapter 2: Retribution, BONELAB, and NFL PRO ERA—VR’s first officially-licensed NFL game.
I have linked the full blog down in the description
So lads a lot to unpack there but just for context the current price of the Meta quest 2 comes in a $299 for the 128gb version and $399 for the $256gb version. That means that both of the headsets will increase by $100USD on their current price and that's a huge increase of 33%. With accessories and refurbished headsets also increasing in price! Now the price increase will take place from the 1st of august 2022 with meta attempting to soften the blow by giving away a free copy of BEAT SABER to any new headset purchased between the 1st of august 2022 and 31 December 2022. The need for a Facebook account will also be removed from the 1st august which we will get more info on that soon enough. So in a nutshell lads if you're planning on getting a meta quest 2 MAKE SURE YOU PURCHASE IT BEFORE 1st of august as it could save you $100. What do you make of the price increase? Let me know in the comments. Ill see you soon. Peace!
