Meta Quest 2 price to soar from August

(Pocket-lint) – Meta has announced that its Meta Quest 2 VR headset will get a hefty price increase from 1 August 2022. The Meta Quest 2 (fomerly known as Oculus Quest 2) is a wire-free headset with a decent library of games and apps. It currently costs £299 for the 128GB model, £399 for the 256GB (GBP299 and GBP399 in the UK) but will gain a £100 hike from the start of next month.

To soften the blow, Meta will include a free copy of Beat Saber “for a limited time”. All Meta Quest 2 accessories and refurbised units will have their prices increased too. As you still have a few days before the price rise, you can still get hold of a Meta Quest 2 at the current price from numerous retailers.

Meta explains the hike as necessary to enable it to continue to invest in virtual reality: “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,” it said in a statement. Pricing will rise in all regions where the headset is available.

We’re awaiting the final pricing for UK and Europe, however.
