Meta, in collaboration with Microsoft, has officially released a special edition of its latest virtual reality headset: the Quest 3S Xbox Edition. This new version stands out with its iconic Xbox-inspired black-and-green design and includes custom Touch Plus controllers and a wireless Xbox gamepad—a dream combo for gaming enthusiasts.

A Bold New Look with Enhanced Features

Unlike the standard Quest 3S model, the Xbox Edition comes in a striking color scheme reminiscent of Microsoft’s popular gaming brand. But it’s not just about looks—this bundle also delivers some solid hardware and software features, including:

  • 128 GB storage capacity

  • Hard plastic head strap (more durable than the fabric one on the original)

  • Stylized Touch Plus controllers and Xbox wireless gamepad

  • Three-month Game Pass Ultimate subscription included

With Game Pass Ultimate, players can stream and access hundreds of top-tier games without needing a console or downloads.

Cloud Gaming Support for Next-Level VR Experiences

One of the standout features of this headset is its support for Xbox Cloud Gaming. Thanks to a pre-installed Microsoft app, users can stream Xbox games directly into the VR environment—offering a whole new level of immersion. Imagine playing titles like Halo Infinite, Forza Horizon, or Starfield right inside your headset.

However, it’s important to note that cloud gaming access is only available in select countries, so availability may vary depending on your location.

Pricing and Availability

The Quest 3S Xbox Edition is now available in the United States for $399, which is approximately Rp6,500,000 in Indonesian Rupiah. While there’s no official release date for other regions yet, it’s expected that international demand and import availability will follow soon.

More Innovations from Meta

Alongside this release, Meta also introduced a pair of water-resistant smart glasses. These allow users to:

  • Listen to music and podcasts

  • Answer smartphone calls

  • Record videos hands-free

It’s part of Meta’s broader push into wearable tech, with a clear focus on merging convenience and futuristic functionality.

The Quest 3S Xbox Edition is an exciting product for gamers looking to explore virtual reality with added Xbox benefits. With cloud streaming, Game Pass integration, and a custom design, it offers a fresh and immersive way to enjoy gaming beyond the traditional screen.

If you’re a gamer ready to elevate your experience, this headset might be the perfect addition to your gear.
