Prime Day Meta Quest deals - FAQ
When did October's Prime Day Meta Quest deals end?
Prime Day Meta Quest deals ended on October 8, at 23:59 local time. However, while the sale may be ending, it also marks the start of sales season in general as we head into the holiday period. And, if you are looking for more immediate sales, both Best Buy and Newegg have competing events running through the 12th to check out.
Do you need a membership for Prime Day Meta Quest deals?
Usually, Prime Day Meta Quest deals aren't Prime Exclusive, and competing retailers will usually run their own seasonal sales at the same time as Amazon. We did see some more accessory deals for the Quest 2 and 3 become Prime Exclusive, so if it's those you seek, you might want to think about a Prime membership. If you play your cards right though, you could get around paying for it. Take out a free trial in the week or so before the event kicks off, get access to the benefits, and then cancel before you need to pay.
What to expect from Prime Day Meta Quest deals in 2025
This is the first year in a while where a new Meta Quest headset hasn't launched. For deals, that's actually great news because it means the existing Quest 3 and 3S devices are far more likely to see discounts before the event ends.
The Quest 3 512GB model is now two years old, and the Quest 3S is about to celebrate its first birthday. What better way to get the end-of-year sales figures up than with some discounts and new bundles? I can absolutely see this being the tactic, especially since rumors have been swirling this year that Valve Deckard is going to be arriving soon, and Meta will want to draw all the attention it can.
With the Batman Arkham Shadow bundle starting to disappear, I wouldn't be surprised if we got a new bundled game deal too. It might be a little late to call this for October's Prime Day event since it's set for launch in the middle of November, but I could easily see Deadpool VR getting a Quest 3 bundle before the sale is over.
Don't forget that we'll also get plenty of bundles with accessories, too, since these already exist at Amazon and other retailers. New this year is the Quest 3S Limited Edition Xbox bundle, and personally, I'm surprised that stock still exists of it, but some discounts during Prime Day might be worth keeping an eye on.
If one thing is for sure, we'll continue to get plenty of discounts on all the third-party accessories for the Quest 3 and 3S. These are the bread and butter of a lot of Amazon's Prime exclusive sales. Expect some of these to be limited-time, Prime-exclusive offers, since they have been in previous sales.
What about the competition?
PSVR 2 has now received a permanent price drop, which makes it cheaper than the Quest 3 512GB. The recent Days of Play sale saw it decrease by a further $50 / £50, and so we may not see a repeated discount over Prime Day (which could be as soon as a month away). I've been noticing that the Quest 3S and PSVR 2 have been competing on prices a lot lately, so when one gets a discount, the other does too.
The Pico 4 Ultra is also an excellent alternative to the Meta Quest 3 if you're shopping in the UK. It has gotten a price drop over Prime Day, which keeps it competitively priced, although its price isn't as affordable as the Quest 3S or PSVR 2, so I'd say consider it if you have the budget for a Quest 3 512GB.
