  "account": "Meta’s VR-focused subscription service, Meta Horizon+, is reportedly set to rebrand as Meta VR+ and expand its offerings beyond games, according to a recent rumor. The company aims to differentiate this offering from its Horizon era branding, as it seeks to shift focus away from its VR division. Leaker Nori shared a screenshot on X (formerly Twitter) that indicated 3D movies would be included in the upcoming Meta VR+ service. Currently, Meta Horizon+ provides access to over 100 games for a monthly fee of $7.99, comparable to Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass service. The subscription also offers access to the Xbox Game Pass tier, allowing users to play over 50 Xbox games via cloud streaming. A 3-month trial is available for new Meta Quest purchases. While the exact pricing structure for the Meta VR+ service remains unclear, the inclusion of 3D movies suggests that the subscription could provide added value, particularly when paired with the upcoming $1,300 Meta VR Glasses. These movies are expected to be high-profile titles, likely enhancing the overall appeal of the service. Meta has been gradually distancing itself from the \"Horizon\" name since early this year, as part of a broader rebranding effort aimed at streamlining its VR offerings and separating them from its mobile and smart glasses initiatives.",
