Meta Quest+ in January 2024: These two VR games are featured

Meta's VR subscription Meta Quest+ brings you two new VR games every month. The following two titles were added in January 2024.

FACTS

Nock

Nock is a pure multiplayer game that combines soccer and archery. It offers modes for fun rounds with friends as well as competitive players.

The goal of the game is to shoot a ball into the opponent's goal using a bow and arrows. Special items are available for this purpose. Among other things, players can use block arrows to create obstacles. What's more, players aren't limited to using bows and arrows, they can also score goals with their bodies.

Regular price: $10

Richie's Plank Experience

The 2017 VR experience demonstrates the suggestive power of virtual reality like no other.  You enter an elevator at the base of a skyscraper that, after a short ride, opens to reveal a deep chasm in front of you. The mental challenge is to balance on a virtual wooden plank above the abyss.

In the early days of VR, Richie's Plank Experience was an exciting experience. In 2024, it is lacking in content, despite the recent addition of a mixed reality mode.

Regular price: $15

CONTEXT

Meta Quest+ launched in July 2023 and works as follows:

  • Every month, Meta selects two new VR games.
  • You must claim the new VR games each month online, in the headset, or in the Meta Quest app, or the offer will expire at the end of the month. This also means that you can't claim VR games from previous months retroactively.
  • If you claim the VR games every month, your Quest+ game library will grow over time.
  • The VR subscription can be canceled at any time, so you can skip a month if you already own the VR games announced for the next month.
  • If you cancel your subscription, you'll lose access to the VR games you've claimed. If you re-subscribe, you'll regain access to them and be able to claim the VR games that are currently available.
  • Quest+ supports Meta Quest 2, 3, and Pro.

The subscription costs $7.99 USD per month or $59.99 USD for an annual subscription.

The following VR games have been part of Quest+ so far:

OPINION

The January 2024 offer is one of the weakest yet for Meta Quest+. Nock is only interesting for fans of multiplayer games, while in Richie's Plank Experience you've seen everything after fifteen minutes.
