Meta's Quest 2 and Quest Pro reach 'end of feature development'
The app stores will stay open for both devices after support ends next year.
Meta has announced that it will be discontinuing support for its older virtual reality headsets, the Quest 2 and Quest Pro. The app stores for both devices will remain open after support ends next year. Meta confirmed that the final operating system updates for the devices will be released in March 2027, although security patches and bug fixes will continue until the end of 2027.
The last opportunity for developers to submit new apps for the Quest 2 and Quest Pro will be in December 2027. Existing apps can still receive updates after Meta ends support. Despite being released in 2020 and 2022, respectively, millions of users still utilize the Quest 2 and Quest Pro. However, Meta appears to be focusing on future developments, with the introduction of Meta Glasses to its wearable lineup this year.
