Xbox games playable in Quest 3
A little new feature, the VR Quest 3 headset provides access to games currently available in the Xbox cloud. Remember that you can only access these games if you have an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription. It is possible to subscribe for 4x cheaper with our conversion tip, i.e. a monthly cost of €4 instead of €14.99 to access more than 400 games on console, PC and cloud.
META has released a short video in which we see a player launching Halo Infinite in the cloud to play it in their living room on their Quest 3 headset. This option will be available by the end of the year.
