Meta ends feature development for Quest 2 and Quest Pro VR headsets

Meta is ending feature development for its Quest 2 and Quest Pro virtual reality headsets. While the devices will receive their final operating system updates in March 2027, Meta will continue to provide security patches and bug fixes through the end of that year. Developers will have until December 2027 to submit new applications for these older headsets, though existing apps and purchases will remain accessible, and cross-play with newer models like the Quest 3 and Quest 3S will persist.
