    I don’t know what’s worse. The fact that this will definitely still require a Facebook account to use. Or the fact that it will also require a Microsoft one too

      You haven’t needed a facebook account for the headsets for years now. They finally saw that linking the two was a horrible idea.

    So uh, does this work on PC, or is it locked to Xbox? What is the advantage here vs a non branded version?

    I’m avoiding MS and Meta like the plague anyway but I’m just curious. I see VR still must be a thing but I haven’t heard of any stellar games since half life and beat saber. I’ve been waiting for price drops and forgot about it completely in the mean time.

      It is exactly like the standard Meta Quest 3S, it’s just a different colorway and it comes with a Xbox controller and some Gamepass bundled.

      You can still stream games from your PC, play Standalone titles, stream Gamepass, whatever.

      It’s a limited run reskin of the same product, except it’s $100 more and comes with the Elite Strap and an Xbox controller.
