Save $130 on this Meta Quest 3S VR gaming bundle

If you're an Xbox Game Pass subscriber who is looking for the best way to go beyond playing games on a TV or console, then let me recommend the Meta Quest 3S. Not only is it one of the best VR headsets in terms of affordability, but right now it’s available as part of an exciting Xbox bundle.

The bundle contains a Meta Quest 3S (128GB) with access to Batman: Arkham Shadow, Beat Saber, and a 3-month trial of Meta Horizon+. All of this costs just $249.99, which is a saving of $130. Given that the Meta Quest 3S ordinarily costs $299.99, this is quite the offer.

The Meta Quest 3S transforms any space into a personal gaming arena and despite its price, the headset still boasts incredible mixed-reality features and great VR gaming specs. Subscribers can stream Xbox games on a 26-foot virtual screen, and pair an Xbox controller to the device for seamless play.

The Quest 3S is a budget-friendly "lite" version of the Quest 3, maintaining the same powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor. To achieve its lower price, it compromises on display and lenses while still offering a respectable resolution of 1832 pixels per eye on a single LCD panel. Despite the cutbacks, it still retains the Quest 3's variable refresh rate of up to 120Hz.

During our testing we found that games like Blade & Sorcery Nomad and Asgard's Wrath 2 ran admirably, proving the headset is more than capable for this generation's VR content. Overall, the Quest 3S presents a highly compelling value proposition, making it the recommended purchase for most players seeking a quality VR experience without the Quest 3's premium cost.

This offer ends December 31, but if you missed the boat, then we have a page dedicated to bringing you all the best Meta Quest deals and bundles available right now.
