Ok.. so a quick note before I begin. I have had more than a few people ask me if I was doing one of these for this sale. Yes.. as you can see I am, but I am telling you now its going to be a lot shorter than before. Here is why.. ** description of injury ahead, scroll down a bit to avoid it ** .. OK.. so yesterday the sale went live at 12 noon CST, I was having lunch in my office. I learned a new medical term I was not familiar with.. "Soda Can Avulsion".. the hard way. I went to open my can of Dr. Pepper, and instead of the can opening, my fingernail opened instead. As a good chunk of you already know, I work in a hospital, so the ER was literally right there. I'm all stitched up now but its hard to type.. So, if a game makes it to THIS list, then I must really like it.
** ok.. gross thing is over now ** basically i have a hurt finger and cant type.. so the list is going to be much smaller.
These are all the games from this sale that I really recommend. Oh.. and some that are on STEEPLY discounted bundles.. I will mark those with *** ...
Among Giants https://queststoredb.com/game/among-giants-25060508500262559/ $12.99 Dont let the low poly graphics fool you. This is "Among" the best games to be released this year and will probably be in quite a few "top 10s of 2026" lists in December
Apex Construct https://queststoredb.com/game/apex-construct-2096570290365140/ its .99 cents .. Its a decent, but older bow and arrow game.
Arcaxer https://queststoredb.com/game/arcaxer-5396412860376470/ $2.99 This is like an old school turn based RPG in VR. Just think of in Final Fantasy if its time for the enemy to attack, YOU have to actually physically dodge the attacks. Its an older game and a bit goofy.. but for $3.. what the hell.
Arken Age https://queststoredb.com/game/arken-age-29923535407244981/ $17.99 This was my Game of the Year for 2025 and I played like 150+ games last year. Love this one. 14 hour campaign.. Get this one!
Catjinni Survivors https://queststoredb.com/game/catjinni-survivors-9319040004779451/ $7.99 Ok.. some of you guys got me hooked on Vampire Survivors, and now I have gotten hooked on Catjinni .. is it goofy? yes.. but if you like Vampire Survivors, you will probably like this one too.. especially if you are a cat person.
Cities VR https://queststoredb.com/game/cities-vr-4046879905345967/ $2.99 While not as good as the PC game, this one is not bad at all for $3.00 .. that is 85% off and the lowest its been.
Dark Trip https://queststoredb.com/game/dark-trip-27793698076945636/ $4.99 Ah yes.. Dark Trip. an edgy, adult oriented escape room type game where you must consume pills (that are totally NOT drugs.. mmmkay) and you will hallucinate and see the rooms "differently" .. joking aside, I love this game. Its weird as hell. See if you can find the Penguin Easter Egg!
Drunk or Dead 2 https://queststoredb.com/game/drunk-or-dead-2-7049721281738919/ $2.99 Ok.. so I dont even remember buying this one, but its honestly pretty damn fun. It is another that is wierd as hell. You need to kill zombies, while drinking alcohol .. if you get sober, you die!
How to God https://queststoredb.com/game/how-to-god-5997754983577827/ $25.99 This one does not go on sale very often. One of my favorites from last year.. dont let the cartoony graphics fool you.. this is a solid God game. Tons of content and they are constantly updating it too. Remember Black and White from back in the day? Its like that.. kinda..
I Am Smurf https://queststorederpyderp/I_am_Smurf-73267NuMbers $3.99 Be Blue and be true! Live out your childhood fantasies in this amazing interactive FPS puzzle racing sim. Karts now feature gorilla tag style movement because, you know, that is how wheels work.
Iron Guard Bundle https://queststoredb.com/bundle/iron-guard-complete-bundle-1118756800321869/ $20.99 Both of the Iron Guard games for basically $20. If you like Tower Defense games, then these need to be in your library. Easily the best 2 on the Quest. EDIT.. TURNS OUT THAT BUYING THEM BOTH SEPARATELY IS A DOLLAR CHEAPER!
Jurassic World Aftermath https://queststoredb.com/game/jurassic-world-aftermath-collection-2708465082504733/ $5.99 80% off. Cell shaded dinosaurs.. decently sized campaign. You can't beat this for $6.00.. Life.. uhh.. finds a way..
Just One Man https://queststoredb.com/game/just-one-man-8802299089893750/ $8.99 This is a total sweat fest. I really like this one, but if I play more than 15 minutes, i may end up in the ER again..
Kartofl https://queststoredb.com/game/kartoffl-4725588970834544/ $1.99 .. Remember the game Lemmings? This is like the VR/MR version of that.. execpt these are not rodents, they are little potatoes because.. why not?
Le Dino Labo https://queststoredb.com/game/le-dino-labo-25169287542680910/ $4.99 I have said countless times, i am not a puzzle fan at all. PTSD I swear.. however, I do love dinosaurs and so this one gets an exception. The skeletons are pretty easy to put together (there is a HARD mode.. but F### that) but the biggest feature to me.. is that you can then scale the model from table top sized, to Real Life (Extinct) sized.. and let me tell you, seeing how big some of these were, compared to my house was mind blowing.
Legendary Tales https://queststoredb.com/game/legendary-tales-7355622301195522/ $27.99 Another one of my favorites of the year for sure on this one. It will have a spot on my top 10 for sure. This is the action RPG that I have waited for on stand alone VR for years. It it expensive? Yeah.. but its loaded with content and replayability.
Marrow Marrow https://queststoredb.com/game/marrow-marrow-9173719072733985/ $7.99 This is one that has really grown on me. its a weird one for sure.. I guess I would call it an intense movement shooter. Strange game, but pretty damn fun too. Must have good VR legs to play.
Memoreum https://queststoredb.com/game/memoreum-9135633756555622/ $11.99 Dead Space in VR... basically. Decent sized campaign.. decent story and monsters. Great price.
Meta City Patrol https://queststoredb.com/game/metacity-patrol-6779063182133413/ $6.99 This one will be on the list every time its on sale. I have had it for a long time and it is finally out of early access. its a ton of fun. See if you can find the Penguin easter egg! (Hint.. its Penguin Shit Toilet paper.. lol)
Plasmaborne https://queststoredb.com/game/plasmaborne-24063797616578714/ $5.99 one of my hidden gems that I found last year. Very doom like.. its fun but hard.. I have compared it a bit to crashland in difficulty. Tons of upgrads.. like over 100 random ones. every run is truly different.
Shin Zero https://queststoredb.com/game/shin-zero-9486019051433303/ $14.99 The best parts of the Vader Immortal series were the dojos.. this is basically kind of like that.
Shogun's Empire https://queststoredb.com/game/shoguns-empire-25662225113424807/ $5.99 Another hidden gem. Its a turn based strategy game based in feudal Japan.
The Pirate: Republic of Nassau https://queststoredb.com/game/the-pirate-republic-of-nassau-7749043518464805/ $11.99 This is basically Sid Meyer's Pirates in VR.. with a touch of Assasin's Creed whatever.. with the pirates.. you know the one.
Triangle Strategy https://queststoredb.com/game/triangle-strategy-5340130476095884/ $14.99 Square Enix's only game on Quest. Plays just like Final Fantasy Tactics. Looks fantastic in Mixed Reality. The first hour is a SLOG thought.. just get through it and it opens up, I promise.
And that is it..
This time I know I left some stuff out, but that is about all I can type right now.. my finger is throbbing like hell! LOL..
As always, feel free to discuss, agree, disagree, add your own recommendations.. whatever.. just be cool! Hit that like and subscribe button, ring the bell and don't really try to do any of those things.. because there isn't any of those things here.

Normandy Beach in Medal of Honor Allied Assault hits different in VR. Dang I forgot how hard this game can be. I'm loving this vibe coded VR mod so far. I just finished fixing aiming and I'm adding a floating crosshair to make it a but easier to aim. Oh and crouching works now haha. I needed it for this level.

TL;DR
📢📢Retro 3D is now in Early Access for Meta Quest! Visit http://retro3dxr.com to learn more! Turn your Quest headset into Vintage 3D glasses 🤯 (Discount code in the comments)
Store Page: https://vr.meta.me/s/21JewtWClxD9BXI
A little more info...
I first posted a teaser about this concept almost a year ago - July 28, 2025! I've had a working version for a long time, but the timing just didn't feel right. Well, the app still isn't perfect, but I've updated the algorithm so the quality is better than those early builds, and the UX is slightly improved 🤔
So what is Retro 3D? (If you're just stumbling up on this) Retro 3D uses camera passthrough to simulate red + cyan 3D glasses. You start by finding "anaglyph 3D" content online (or at home if you have it), put the headset on, turn on the glasses mode in the app (the app applies a red filter to your left eye and a blue filter to your right eye - like looking through cheap paper glasses 😎), and then watch old 3D content.
Does it work as well as the cheap glasses? No!
But that's not the point.
What is the point? That it's possible to do this!
I like to say "view old 3D content in your new 3D headset".
I demoed this at #AWE2026 to much delight. If you try it, let me know how it works for you! I have a few more ideas to implement... then I'm done 😉

As a dev, the one I would kill for is passthrough camera clarity. Sharper, less grainy cameras would open up so much for mixed reality games. Right now the noise really limits what we can build for MR. Throw in proper depth sensing for occlusion and it would be a different world.
I also want more GPU headroom. Quest 3 already runs some genuinely heavy graphics standalone. Push that further and we could ship stuff that actually looks close to PCVR without the cable.
Eye tracking with foveated rendering would help here too. Gives us a lot more room to work with.
But honestly the biggest one for me is weight. I don’t even care if we have to run a wired battery down to a pack in our pocket. Just make the headset itself light enough to wear for a full session without the neck strain. Comfort beats specs at this point.
What’s on your list?

Scan it, prompt it, (grab a coffee,) play it.
The 2Sync SDK scans the space and decides where everything is and how big it can be. GenAI takes over the look: a language model plans the scene, Rodin Gen2.5 generates a matching 3D model for every real object, and Blockade Labsdelivers the skybox.
Full transparency: It currently takes about 30 minutes to go from "prompt" to "play", and the generated models are, of course, not perfect yet. But both are improving rapidly. The exciting part is that the entire pipeline already works today.
But that's not the point. I described a world in one sentence and my terrace became it. Our SDK understands the environment. Together with AI, it builds the experience.
More worlds in the pipeline. What would you prompt your room into? 🙂

I bought an old Quest 1 to have as a backup headset and also for horror games since it has an OLED display. The headstrap had some white build up / bloom on it from sitting (i had a different quest 1 a while ago with the same issue but didn’t think of this). It wouldn’t clean off with a rag, baby wipe, etc. so i figured why not use some toothpaste! The white build up cleaned right off and it looks good as new (got the idea from polishing headlights and other things with toothpaste).
Just put a small dab on your finger and rub the toothpaste into the rubber really well. Then wipe off with a wet wipe!
Kind of a silly post. But I hope it helps someone put their quest 1 back on the entertainment center because it’s not a bad PCVR headset for how cheap you can buy it. I just bought this headset with controllers for $30 used and i couldn’t pass up the deal.

as the title states, i ordered a meta quest 2 through amazon and thought i could save some money by getting an amazon renewed version. after opening the amazon package, it didnt have any branded packaging but i expected that with an amazon renewed. but what i wasnt expecting, was when i go to plug it in the red light does not appear. it did for a moment, but it dissapeared shortly after (maybe a few seconds) . i have tried a separate cable and separate charging block, also changing where i tried charging it at and still nothing
i spent about $350 on this, and for it to just not even accept being charged is pretty frustrating. should i just return it and buy a new one? and new being condition, brand new instead of amazon renewed.

Today I played around with vibe coding a VR mod for one of my favorite FPS games of yesteryear, Medal of Honor Allied Assault. It's still super early but shows a lot of promise so far.
r/OculusQuest • u/Sudden_Complaint8628 • 1h ago
I've got a problem with my Oculus 2, where I'm trying to set it up but it won't move on from the code screen. For reference, I've had it since around 2019, but for years it's just been collecting dust. I tried getting back on the thing and now it's just stuck on "continue setup in the app". The headset wasn't even paired with my phone, so after trying a few things I poceeded with a factory reset. Once doing this, it opened to a pairing code screen. I have tried to use this code on 2 different accounts... nothing. It says "device not found". Confusingly, that message showed up on my phone, but when I checked the connection in-app it said the devices were paired. This was extra confusing, since it was telling me otherwise. I have done two factory resets at this point. The same code is stuck on the screen, and it refuses to proceed. I can access different screens, like restart/power off and the boot device screen, but the actual system won't budge. What's giong on, and how do I fix it?
r/OculusQuest • u/SnooKiwis4336 • 8h ago
Every time I try connecting tk my wifi with the correct password, all I get is "Saved/Check your password and try again." I've tried everything. Even factory resetting but it still doesn't do anything, now I can't access my quest settings to forget the wifi so i have factory reset it every time I want to try to connect to my wifi but it never works, I'm so frustrated and I've genuinely cried over this, somebody for the love of God help me please

The scope of the mod is to port each Halo game to VR one at a time, with the current focus being to get Halo 2 working in VR with its original graphics. Once the game is in a good enough state the focus will move on to the next Halo title, and then the next one until every game has been ported to VR.
Halo CE VR is a mod that benefited a lot from community contributions and that was only after it had been released, imagine how good the mod can be if everyone can help out from the beginning
Here's a link to the repo with a list of missing features that are left to be finished: https://github.com/LivingFray/ForerunnerVR

Hey everyone!
I’m working on a new VR project called Shatter Flow, and I just posted a short video showcasing the latest gameplay. It’s a physics‑driven destruction experience where you can smash, slice, punch, and break objects in super satisfying ways. Think of it as a mix of chaotic sandbox fun + fast, reactive physics.
Shatter Flow is planned to go live in August for Early Access, and I’m polishing the core mechanics right now destruction systems, rhythm‑based modes, boxing interactions, and performance tuning for Quest.
I’d really appreciate any feedback from the VR/indie dev community.
I’m building this solo, so every bit of input helps me shape the Early Access launch. Thanks for checking it out!
Video is attached let me know what you think!

I feel like I have enough time with the Quest 3 to say that if you ever considered quest 3S as your first headset? Go for it. Even more if you go second hand or refurbished. I just got a second unit(along side my 3) for occasional multiplayer but also for testing with when developing my truck game. (Got it second hand, and people are literally "giving them away" pricewise)
I know people are quick to tell you that you should get the Quest 3, but if you cant side by side compare both headsets, which i did countless times last night back and forth running bonelab. Apart from the apparent sharpness and pancake lenses they're not far apart when jumping between them.
Also it does everything that the 3 does and the passthrough feels identical to my eyes.
Added bonus is the use in the dark feature that 3S has up its sleeve, work very well in pitch black room.
I found myself actually using it yesterday. Though I was gonna have it stand by when I needed it. But the experience was far better than I expected.
If you're ever on the fence.. budget is tight.. or you just want to test the waters not gambling on a purchase, 3S will absolutely suffice. And better yet it will not bring you a lesser experience even though opinions around the matter might be very loud and pro-quest 3.

I made Halo VR for Contractors VR and thaaat game is bout ded now a days sooooo this couldn’t have come at a better time!
r/OculusQuest • u/Flaky-Sir2124 • 6h ago
I’m just wondering how many other people had this issue of the wifi connections suddenly being refused with the very infuriating “check password and try again” message. And if someone‘s genius has figured out the solution. (I have a quest 2)
r/OculusQuest • u/VayaTelaHermano • 6h ago
Hi all,
I recently acquired a pre owned Quest 3 headset. The problem is, I cannot get it to boot up. It is not a display issue as when I turn on the device I can see the meta logo, followed by a black screen (the display is on, it is a lighter black than when the device is fully off)
Here is where things get weird. Originally, after the meta logo I could hear the boot up sound followed by menu/first-time-setup music. I could even see the volume HUD when pressing the volume up/down buttons. I tried factory resetting to no avail.
Then I followed the instructions provided by meta support on updating the software using a PC. I installed v25.0. Now I can see the meta quest logo on boot up, but I no longer get any boot up sound, menu music, nor any sort of indication that the android interface is working (pressing volume buttons no longer prompts the volume HUD to pop up). I can still however enter the boot menu (again, factory resetting does nothing).
I welcome any suggestions on how to fix this. Alternatively I will return the device as I did pay for fault protection. Thank you.
Edit: Not sure if it makes a difference but: Before the update, I would see the meta logo with “Meta Horizon OS” underneath. Now I just see the meta logo.
r/OculusQuest • u/TheAeronote • 23h ago
Hi all,
I’ve never really used VR much as a whole, but the few times I have, I have loved it. Recently I’ve been considering purchasing the meta quest 3, since it seems that’s the one most people recommend at that price point.
However, I have also heard that a lot of people are disappointed with meta’s support with it as of late, as well as with the relatively recent price bump.
I’d consider the quest 3s, although having the clearest vision seems like it should be a priority in my opinion.
I still think that it would have many use cases for me, especially with gaming (I own a decent PC so PCVR is an option). I know there has probably been a billion posts similar to this since it seems like it would be a common question, but I’d love to hear some opinions from actual quest owners!
Edit: Thanks for all of the opinions. To be specific, my PC is an RTX 5080 and 7800X3D build. Also to clarify, I am interested in watching movies, fitness, desktops, etc as well- gaming is just one of my main focuses.
r/OculusQuest • u/maheer660 • 1h ago
